Ever since I got the new Macbook, I been pretty productive with it. I have to say this is a better experience than that crappy iMac I had at work a while back. The Intel Macs makes me enjoy OSX much more.
Since I go out to do work, I know take my Macbook to places and some of those places do not have Wi-Fi. I am a web designer so I need a server to test my PHP/MySQL and with no internet connection to a live server, it is hard to do so. I then came across MAMP.
MAMP is a application that creates a MySQL and Apache server right on your Mac so instead of testing your site online, you can do it directly on your Mac! The setup is super easy! Really good for you Wordpress developers!

Seems as if I been on a shopping spree lately. New cellphone, new kicks and now new notebook! I bought a new Macbook (Black) because I will be mobile a lot now so I need to carry my work around with me. Since I am a web monkey, I need to design and develop websites to web standards on Mac and PC, this is good since I can also run Windows! I would of gotten a Macbook Pro but I wanted something small and this will not be my workhorse computer.
The Macbook is pretty sweet! I really didn’t like Macs before just because I was not used to the UI and probably the one I had in the office sucked really bad. But this one is just right! I got the latest one, with the new penryn chips, standard 250gb of hard drive space and 2GB of RAM. Here are the specs:
