MacBook Air Pro Review Plus Top 10 Best Selling Laptops at Amazon

Apple MacBook Dominates the Top 10 List of Best Selling Laptops from Amazon


Buy a new Apple MacBook from Amazon and you will be in the best of company...Four slots out of the top ten best selling laptop computers, currently at Amazon, are from Apple, Inc...When you compare the features of each, you will have to decide which feature is more important to you...Maybe you want the largest screen available or perhaps you want the lightest laptop because you'll need to carry it during your commute on public transportation or even in your carry-on luggage, while travelling...Once you have decided which physical attributes will meet your needs, then you can decide which operating system (OS) you desire to work within...I can tell you first hand that if you choose an Apple MacBook, you do have the added bonus of being able to run Windows applications within a simulated OS...Other features which are important to consider include RAM (which helps determine how fast applications will load) and hard disk space (usually measured in gigabytes and tells how much storage space is onboard for documents, applications and all sorts of files including videos, pictures and more)...And perhaps last or first on your list will be the price...The top 10 best selling laptop computers range between $349.99 and $1709.94...So at a glance I would say that you might as well invest in a new laptop, instead of a refurbished one...It takes all the crazy mystery out of what kind of life your refurb laptop may have had prior to your second-hand ownership and why was it ditched in the first place...

The third highest sold laptop computer is the Apple MacBook Air MC965LL/A 13.3-Inch Laptop...The MacBook is the go to laptop for people that tend to work with applications that require heavy computations from their laptop like graphic designers, programmers, etc...This MacBook Air has earned about 4.5 out of 5 stars from 76 reviewers at Amazon...Here's a helpful review from CNET:

Black Friday 2011 is less than a week away...

The Countdown for Major Deals and Giveaways That Holiday Shoppers and Retailers are Anxious For is On

Major retailers are starting Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving Thursday...WalMart and Toys R Us will be opening at 10 pm Thursday night...Best Buy will be will open on "Black Midnight"...The ads are out and the race is on...Which retailers have your attention???...

Well unfortunately for Target the attention they are getting is negative press...Because one of their employees, Anthony Hardwick of Nebraska, has started a petition at change.org against working Thursday night...He's determined that he'll have to go to sleep early afternoon on Thanksgiving, instead of enjoying time with friends and family, so that he will be well rested enough to perform well on his 10-hour shift that begins at 11pm...Well over 193,00 supporters have joined Anthony Hardwick...One of the supporters, Deborah Schwartz, had this to say:

"I'm so tired of turning on the news the Monday after Black Friday and having to hear about how much money the big retailers did or didn't make. As if that's the point of our year-end holidays. I'm tired of Christmas being promoted BEFORE Halloween. I'm sick and tired of these attempts to brainwash us into thinking Christmas is about how much money we spend. Every American has the right to spend Thanksgiving with their families - its a national holiday! This is employee-abuse, plain and simple, and an threat to EVERY American worker. Target, stop exploiting your employees! (Thanks, Anthony, for creating this petition.)"



And at least 418 people agree with her view as well...And similar to how the Occupy Wall Street movement has spread, so has the sentiment of retail employees and their supporters...An employee of Best Buy in Florida, Rick Melaragni, has also started a petition and has over 10,700 supporters...Protesters are asking for shoppers to boycott any retailers that are opening before 5am/6am Friday morning, for early Black Friday related deals ...What do you think???...Will capitalism rule Black Friday again this year and the years to come???...It's a crazy situation because people need to work, jobs are hard to come by, the economy is bad and industry insiders, such as the National Retail Federation, don't really expect sales to dramatically increase, even with all the Black Friday hype, in comparison to last year, anyway...

WebMail vs Social Media...Survey says...

Internet mail or email, as it is commonly known these days, has come a long way since the days of AOL's "You've Got Mail" era (Who remembers the movie of the same name?)...Well anyway, as of August 2011, Windows Live Hotmail has 360 million users, Yahoo! Mail comes in 2nd with 302 million users and Gmail is in third place with 260 million users... Those may be the numbers that advertisers and potential investors are looking at, but what about the stories behind those numbers...

Although Google may be in third place in the free email market, Google Search is number one among search engines with more than several million queries per day...FYI, Google Inc has been making some crazy moves...They acquired Zagat, the popular restaurant review guide last month and Daily Deals was also acquired in September...In April, Google acquired ITA Software, which is a software developer for the airline and travel industry...Those are only a few of the deals that Google has made this year...Google Labs officially closed its doors October 14th and that's when Google Body Browser, the Google Earth-like explorer for human anatomy moved to Zygote Body as a web application and became available for free as an Android app...Google+ (the latest challenger to Facebook) has a mere 40 million users for now...Google's moves makes me believe that their leaders are working on some sort of master plan...They apparently have a vision...

Meanwhile, the workforce at Yahoo is less than chipper these days with reports that employee moral is pretty low, following the ouster of CEO Carol Bartz...

But I wonder if Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and Gmail are just nipping at their fingers regarding the explosive social media empire that Facebook has racked up...more than 800 million active users...That's just crazy...Its almost as many as the former three combined...And for those of you that may be wondering, Twitter has more than 200 million tweetees (I guess that's what you would call a Twitter user)...

Handle your business...Chase Online vs Paypal!!!

If I were to start a new business or project where I needed to collect/receive funds, I would probably use paypal..Paypal is convenient, just a click or two away...With paypal you don't have to share your banking card number or your account number with evey Barry, Bob or Susan...Even though if I were banking with Chase using their Chase Online interface, I wouldn't feel nearly as secure in comparison to Paypal...

Have you ever received one of those crazy emails, supposedly from Chase Online or any other bank...I say crazy because, whoever spammed it out to, apparently, the world, must also be crazy to think that I am going to give my personal bank account details...I guess crazy criminals make the world go round...

Mark your calendar, it's the end of October 2011...Come next month, November 2011, I bet you will see a rise in criminal activities...Those crazy criminals don't want to just eat, drink and be merry like most people...They'll be scheming some incredibly crazy scam to prey on lots of unsuspecting folks just for the fun of it and maybe if they are business minded crooks to add to their bottom line before this calendar year comes to a close...
