Intro

This blog was created to share my views, interest, learnings, and other tips and tricks about Mac.

To introduce, I have a MacBook Pro 13" Mid 2012. Bought it from eBay in Nov 2012.  As I am working with mobility, its always better to work in Mac as you can develop for any mobile platform. Ofcourse, I am a android developer and am writing a blog on android too. Now it's been a year, I am using it. Recently extended its warranty for another 2 years.

Before MacBook, I was working in a Windows Laptop. To compare both, Its like both has its standing merits and demerits. Getting accomodated to Mac was the only hurdle. Now after a year, I feel, Mac makes me feel at ease, comfortable, kind of richness to the work I am doing with my laptop. There were hardly things going wrong/crash in macbook which is more prevalent in Windows. I am not Apple evangelist as well am not against windows.

Few things which I like about Mac are as belows,
 1. Automator.
 2. Gestures in trackpad.
 3. Rare memory crashes.
 4. Magnetic charger pin.
 5. Nice Resolution while watching pictures/videos and in general.
 6. Inbuilt OS functionalities like video/audio cutter/recording and many more.
 7. Internet Sharing, especially via WiFi.
 8. Genie effect in minimise/maximise windows.
 9. Apple Logo Light behind monitor.
 10. Default Backlit keyboard.

I have Mountain Lion OS X 10.8.5. Waiting to upgrade to Mavericks, as I am yet to get portable hard-disk to backup my data.
