Ever wonder what kind of car a NASCAR
driver has in his driveway? Or what song Bono is playing on his iPod?
Here's a peak inside of PC's techno world.
First off, I'm not one to always
upgrade every time something new comes out. I
believe in using something until it becomes inefficient.
My lawn mower is 15 years old...and guess what... it
still works. But if it takes me twice as long to
mow my lawn then a new mower would, I'd be at Home
Depot the next weekend. (Hopefully you get the
point)
Device |
Pros |
Cons |
Laptop:
Apple MacBook Pro |
15" screen, 16 GB RAM, 750 GB
7200 RPM HDD.
Backlit keyboard, super bright LED lit screen,
keyboard action, best trackpad mouse ever used,
FAST Running XP and
OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion using
Parallels
4.0. It's the best of both
worlds!!!! |
$1,699 base price. You can get a
Dell laptop for $549. However, you
get what you pay for and this is one of the
world's best laptops. Can't get any
better. |
Phone:
Samsung Galaxy
S4 |
I'm an iPhone hater and not
afraid to admit it. Compare the top 10
most used functions on your phone and I promise
Android will run circles around the iPhone!
|
Um...pretty much none! |
Favorite Tech Gadget:
Samsung Galaxy
10.1 Note Tablet |
I had an iPad and loved it. I
recently broke the screen so decided to try the
Note. I'll never go back!!! |
Again...pretty much none! |
Preferred Router:
Netgear N300
|
If your house is wired and you
need more than one wireless router, the N300
allows you to put additional routers into
Wireless Access Point mode. Very affordable and
easy to program |
There are more expensive routers
which might have better range, but I would
prefer to have a router and WAP vs one powerful
router. |
Best Wireless Router and Access
Point:
Apple Airport
Extreme and Airport Express for boosters |
If you need more than one router
to light up your house and your house isn't
wired for networking, Apple has the only
solution for allowing more than one router to
great a single, seamless wireless network |
Expensive! $200 for the
Extreme, $99 for each Express. |
