GEAR ARCHIVE
| This was
my first
Apple MacBook Pro. It
was the 15" model, with a
2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 2
GB of RAM, and 250 GB HDD.
When I bought it, the
MacBook was not yet
available with a drive that
large, so my first task was
a HDD swap. Since the drive
I used was slightly thicker
than OEM, close observation
of the left front of the
case shows that the seam is
not quite flush. No matter,
as I ran
OSX 10.4 Tiger,
MS
Vista Ultimate, and
Ubuntu Linux (both using
Parallels), I needed
that drive space at all
costs. This laptop's network
name was EZRI, and the
desktop displayed
OSX Planet, a nice
background app that shows
the Earth's terminator and a
satellite view in real time. |

The connectivity piece of my
mobile office was formerly provided by
my
Verizon V740
Qualcomm 3G
CDMA
ExpressCard. Although I
"feet" my
Sprint card was faster,
I must admit this card worked
in a lot more places. |

Here is the
Verizon Wireless
XV6800
Windows Mobile 6
Smartphone I upgraded away
from when my employer moved
from AT&T and I got the
tilt. With it I got my
e-mail in real time from
both my
Exchange server and
Windows Live Hotmail,
have rudimentary web
browsing capability, and
pretty much every other PDA
related function you can
think of. We were very
happy together. |
