A New MacBook Air For My Mom!

-
Today, I had the privilege and honor to escort my mom to the local Best Buy for a new computer. Looking forward to the event, I had made the point that since she already had an iPad and iPhone that a new MacBook computer would be an excellent idea. Mom didn’t disagree with the thought so thats where we headed when we entered the store. 

Walking up to the beautiful hard wood tables with the gorgeous Apple products setting on them she had her choice of products from iMacs, all the way down to the perfectly suited MacBook Air. As we looked over the machines a man with a black Apple shirt on approached us asking if he could help us with anything. We had pretty much decided that the Air would be a perfect fit for my moms needs and we where standing in front of the Air when he approached us. 

I’m not quite sure why he didn’t just jump at the opportunity to sell the Air when we told him what we where interested in but he didn’t. The gentleman although not really rude seemed to be pushing for my mom to buy a MacBook Pro. Now remember we are looking for a machine that goes online to FaceBook, iMessage, FaceTime and pays a few bills on different websites. Maybe once in a while this would be used for typing up a church news letter or other random document that could be completed on pages. 

Of course he really didn’t seem to care about that, but instead kept pushing the Pro or 12 inch MacBook for the retina screens. After we reassured him that the Air was the perfect fit for moms needs we walked out of Best Buy with a brand new MacBook Air. I truly couldn’t be happier of my mom for taking the leap to MacOS. Of course as in any type of new purchase there will be learning curve since her last laptop of many years has been a ChromeBook but we will get her used to it. As I said she is no stranger to Apple having used an iPhone and iPad for the past few years. 

The Apple ecosystem is a wonderful environment to enjoy. Syncing devices and using the iCloud to pick up where you have left of on another device is truly a great luxury to have. Using cloud storage to be able to grab photos or documents on any device or just relaxing and enjoying the perfect beauty of any one of your Apple devices brings a smile to any owners face. Welcome to world of MacOS.

ONN 7 inch Tablet Review

-

The Surf Onn Gen 2 7 inch tablet from Walmart is exactly what you'd expect from a Walmart tablet. The screen is decent but not great and the apps tend to crash from time to time. I bought the base model for $49 and got 2gb of RAM and 16gb of internal storage that was actually 11 from the pre installed apps.  As for usage the tablet performed well enough to be considered a nice entry level tablet and I feel the kids could use this as a cheap dedicated YouTube machine. Although folks who already have a taste for the big boy toys like the iPad or Samsung tablets may find this to be a toy.  Would I recommend this for anyone? Yes, surprisingly I would. This is a perfect entry level tablet for those who have a tight budget and need a machine to get online with for school, entertainment, kids enjoyment, or to simply apply to jobs, email, and other personal needs. This tablet will get the job done as long as its light work.

I’m Attending Southern New Hampshire University Online

 Hello friends. I’ve been doing some thinking lately. Although I do have a job it’s just a part time job and that leaves me with some free time. The job that I have isn’t the job that I’d like to retire from for sure. I just haven’t been happy with where my life has taken me. I felt it was time to make a few changes. Well I got online and looked for the best online colleges that I could find. I found a few and even tried one that didn’t work out.  Southern New Hampshire University seemed to be a good fit. The cost was dramatically less than other online schools. It does have a brick and mortar school that can be attended. And the reviews for the school aren’t all horrible. In other words it isn’t a diploma mill.  I’m only in my first class so far and it is a class about cultural diversity. I guess that’s a pretty good class for someone majoring in psychology. I’ve learned all about communicating with someone from a different culture than me. Culture could mean anything from race, sexua

Dollar Shave Club Six Blade Razor

-
 So I used to use Harrys razors. I used Harrys for quite a few years. Then something changed about the blades. They started cutting me and at times cutting me pretty bad. The moisturizing strip also started falling off all of the time. This was happening during the first shave of the blade too. I was having to change brand new blades all of the time. It got ridiculous. I decided I had enough of the Harrys razors and made the switch to Dollar Shave Club.  Now I am not going to say that everything I write or say about Dollar Shave Club will be the same experience you’ll get but maybe it will help you make a decision to try them out for yourselves. Now I read a ton of reviews about Dollar Shave Club six blade razor. Most of the reviews are negative unless you find the ones that are promotional reviews. I think that these negative reviews are from long time users of the club and are angry that they switched blades and handles. The old six blade razor was called the executive and the club d
