Music for the soul... how about for the skin??


The MPION MP3 player not only has the power to play your favorite tunes, but also FIGHT ACNE! It is said that "the 128MB player can improve a girl's complexion by releasing positively and negatively charged ions that neutralize breakouts." All you have to do is hold the MP3 player up to your face, enjoy the music, and it does the rest! By flipping the switch to the negative sign, the pores are opened and moisture to the skin is renewed. By switching to the plus sign, it reduces oil and closes pores back. This should be done for 5-10 minutes per session. So now get clear skin while learning the latest lyrics to all of your favorite songs!!! Flippin sweet!!!!

And the winner is.....


Blu-Ray!!!!! The battle of the formats is over.... Toshiba has officially announced that they will no longer develop, make,OR market HD DVD players... After several ups and downs in the industry, with Warner Brothers contributing so heavily to this outcome, HD DVD stood a solid chance before... Toshiba realized that they "had no chance to win." And gave up in a clean manner, before things got too ugly!
This isn't the first time Sony has been in format battles. Think back to the 80s when VHS first hit the scene, only then, Sony was not so lucky in the outcome. Sony's Betamax did not make the cut. But, now is Sony's time to shine!
So everyone get those tax refund checks ready to go and purchase your new BluRay player.. This one is gonna be here for a while!!!


Oh yea, and PS... Guess who is BestBuy's newest Mac rep!!?!?!?! =)

The Macbook Air... or at least, part of it.

Ok, on Sunday night I had a meeting with the new full-time Mac rep for our store. He came in and spoke a little bit about how macs operate and some selling strategies as well.. Well, in the back of the warehouse, we had a Macbook Air. So he brought it out and passed it around (the most expensive show and tell I've ever had). Well looking at the Air one would ask so there's no CD or DVD rom? And the answer to that question in short is, well, kinda... The way the Air was designed benefits those on the go, and those who have too much with them to be tied down by a bulky computer. So as for the optical drive, there are 2 options: there is a companion Macbook Air superdrive, and its original option, the wireless method. For the wireless method, a CD comes with the Air. When you are nearby computers, whether PC or Mac, just run the install CD and then the computer will wirelessly connect to the Air and any software you want installed to your Air, will be ran on the other PC or Mac, and will wirelessly install on the Air... Is that cool or what??!?!??!

Apple TV


Soooo basically, I have so much to do! I am now working 2 jobs while managing my classes, also I have tests to study for and homework to complete. Busy Busy! Oh, and not only that, I also have to study for work because I am taking online training courses for Mac. So, I decided to talk about Apple TV.

Apple TV is amaaaaaazing! It offers you so much in such a simple fashion! Whether it's streaming your pictures and movies wirelessly to your home television from your computer, ipod, or iPhone, or renting movies on your television and it automatically syncing with all 3 devices! This little device packs a punch! the newest feature, which I just mentioned, is the ability to rent movies through your Apple TV receiver. It allows you to rent them in standard quality and also in HD for a dollar more. Prices start at $3.99 per movie. Also, Apple TV lets you buy episodes of your favorite TV show as early as a day after it first airs on TV! No more waiting for the complete season to come out, you've got it all readily available at your fingertips! And like I mentioned earlier, it automatically syncs with your other Apple devices. Apple TV is a really great product and the graphics are outstanding. I love learning more and more about Apple and their products; they never cease to amaze me.
