Having made the decision that enough time to eat, finally a few days ago I decided to buy a MacBook Pro units. It's also a bit expensive yes, with prices 10-11 million now can get a laptop with Intel Core I3 or there is a Core i5 also. Several reviews also regretted why Apple made the decision to design the MacBook Pro 13.3 "in March 2010 the output was still using Core 2 Duo (2.4 GHz, and despite the P series is more to performance, not T like most laptops).
But, I'm sure Apple did not arbitrarily make a decision. According to official sources, MBP 13.3 "Core I3 not use because only slightly improve performance. In any power consumption of Core 2 Duo type P only consuming 25 watts of energy, while consuming 35 watts of Core I3. However on this MBP upgraded to GeForce graphics capabilities and battery capable 320M resistant up to 12 hours if the use of light and up to 7 hours in normal use or 3 for heavy usage plus a USB plug (based on my experience).
The specification of MBP is as follows:
* Processor = Intel Core 2 Duo P8600 2.4 GHz
* RAM = 4 GB DDR3
* Graphics = the GeForce 320M 256 MB
* Hard Drive = Seagate 250 GB 5400 RPM
* = 2 USB Ports, 1 FireWire, 1 Card Reader, 1 MiniDisplay, 1 Audio Out, 1 Ethernet
Hmm ... if diliat cursory, did not speknya wah. That is, if we imagine that spec with inexpensive laptops such as Acer. Viewpoint will be different when I saw it with the shadow spec Sony Vaio for example.
Therefore, let us pereteli one by one the MBP from the box and how to sleep / shutdown. This paper does not discuss Snow Leopard operating system or other software.
1. Cartons / Box
First purchase, dusnya like most other laptops with a plain brown boxes. After the chocolate box is opened, then there is dus plasticity smaller and thinner in it which is supported by bearings in between the boxes inside and outside the box. Dus in white pictorial MacBook Pro and there are small patches of hardware specifications written in it. Dus jinjingannya in there at the top.
Then opened the little box by my Eng ing eng ... ... on the inside cover of the box there is a soft foam safety from shock. Tray storage peripherals bundled looks very slick. MBP-wrapped in plastic sealed his own. There is a charger and several sets of wires knock down. At bottom there is a thin box whose contents consist of two MacBook Pro's manual (in Indonesian and English), black cloth (eh.. There was the Apple logo as well anyway ..), two Apple logo stickers, 2 DVD ( Mac OS X and Applications), and a warranty book. Ckckckck ... dusnya too much detail until the design is.
2. Body
The design is simple, very, very simple and very elegant. Body is made of aluminum berwarnan metallic gray. Alloy looks black and metallic gray. Nothing there any stickers, unlike most laptops that there is always a sticker "Intel Inside", "Designed for Windows 7", sticker specifications, warranty, etc.. On the bottom, there are papers printed gray very small patent and inform the hardware serial number, almost invisible.
At the front / outer lid typical laptop Apple logo, which is partially bitten apple logo, are illuminated (see-through from the LCD). Perhaps there is no writing any brand at all Apple laptops because there is the logo that represents it all.
Air holes / vents at the bottom of the screen (in front begian / above the keyboard). There is no ventilation below. With these designs, no longer worried about using a laptop on the bed or in her lap because the air flowing toward the front.
Three. Screen
The screen flat bay indefinitely, flat from the right end to left end, from top to bottom edge. Throughout the screen wrapped with glass, so it safe from scratches fair as the nature of the glass. Among the glass and aluminum are semi rubber bearings. If the touch screen display glass is still not affected. Different if the LCD directly to the section directly, often there is little interference if we touch.
Because the MBP equipped with light sensors, the sharpness and intensity of light the screen will adjust to ambient light environment. If I set the intensity for half, so if I turn off the room lights will automatically reduce the intensity of the screen to a more dim, and vice versa. It makes my eyes so comfortable, not tired, and not complicated ngurus lighting.
At the top of the screen there is a small circle. Apparently it is the camera / webcam. At the bottom of the MacBook Pro is written as with all Apple laptops.
4. Keyboard
MBP Keyboard is black with function symbols and the letters / numbers in white. Somewhat different if ordinary people using a PC / Windows logos because they switch a little different.
It uses a backlit keyboard that we can set the light intensity, and can also adapt to the environment kecahayaan level (ambient) for using sensors such as the intensity of the screen. Guns no more problems when typing in dim places, even the dark though. Jaya current maen laptop, lunch, dinner, light, dark.
5. Trackpad
Trackpadnya metallic gray, the color with its unibody. Trackpad just looks empty without a button click. In fact, trackpadnya can be pushed to click as well, just like the BlackBerry 9500 (when the guns of the series). Supports multi-touch two fingers, three fingers and four toes, everything is functioning correctly.
This coated glass trackpad on the top, so make finger guns irritation if gradually pake laptop. In fact I personally have left the mouse, because guns need to scroll quite swept up two fingers on the bottom right and left but I did not need to press additional buttons to Exposé because quite a broom with four fingers, move the application three brooms enough fingers, turn the swivel orientation enough pake two fingers, enough pake two finger zoom, simply tap two fingers to right click.
6. Lids
Lid or cover of the laptop screen at the same time has no lock slot. Pake Lidnya closed if magnet system directly glued to the body.
7. MagSafe Charger
Hmm ... this is among the most innovative charger all electronics that need to use a rechargeable battery. Unlike most laptops which to deduct must plug the pen into the hole at the end of the electric charger to power the receiver, the MBP charger applying a magnet. If you want ngisi enough battery charger to bring the tip of the body where the electrical receiver, and he will be sucked patch. Electricity flowed. That's it.
Another function of this system is that if our cable ketarik by our friends who again passed, laptop guns will join the cast but just chargernya deprived of MBP.
8. Battery Indicator
Probably not too important battery indicator yes. But sometimes help as well if you want to see if the battery is fully charged or not, especially when the laptop is off. No need to go first to the operating system to determine remaining battery life. Round keys can be pressed at any time, in the dead or turn on, being unemployed or longer charged. The indicators point size only, green.
The battery in the MacBook Pro is not designed to be opened at any time because embedded in the body. Batteries last for up to 10-12 hours if used only for typing and read-read articles.
9. Slot-Loading DVD Drive
Model CD / DVD drive without the key and nothing his tray. Simply put it, and excreted through the button on the keyboard. Usually any Windows laptops that use a slot-loading drives are expensive.
10. POST (Power-On Self Test)
It only took a second for the EFI to POST. After that direct voice of the "booonngggggg ... ...." And boot directly into Mac OS X. That was quick. Guns like the BIOS to boot if POST begins can take 4-7 seconds.
If the Hibernate state, one second after the sound is not turned on again fixed the direct Wake-Up from Hibernate, there is the indicator below. Quick to 4 GB of RAM can go back into the system.
11th. Sleep & Hibernate
Usually MacBook users rarely perform shutdown. According to the nature of mobile laptops, the laptop must be always ready with instant lit at any time. Similarly with the MBP, if more guns or more pake I go to lunch, aja my lid of his cap and the MBP will do the Safe Sleep. Safe Sleep is the union between Sleep and Hibernate. When Sleep is enabled, Hibernate data will be written to the hard drive just in case if we were too old to do Sleep (eg one month) until the battery is empty. With the Safe sleep, when we recharge the battery and switched back to MBP, system will wake up from Hibernate in the last state we sleep.
Windows users usually memorized if the battery is running out to reach below 3% would have automatic hibernate. At different MBP, Mac OS X will calculate to hibernate just before the battery is completely discharged. In my experience, after the battery 0% and the time is less than a minute, even saying "calculate the approximate time of life" then the system Hibernate.
How to Mac OS X is very good for the health of the battery because by their nature, lithium-ion battery ion-ion batteries require constant motion and must not be silent (in the long term, eg one month). Therefore, if there are still remaining 2% of battery capacity is not used, then the ion-ion batteries Shebaniah 2% it will not be able to move again broken alias. Long will continue to grow "2% -2%" others until the battery is damaged and only lasted 15 minutes.
