Mac Pro

Facts on the Mac Pro:








The processor of a Mac Pro can come in different sizes depending on what you need. The bigger the processor, the faster your desktop will run and vice-versa for a smaller processor. The new Mac Pro is up to 1.3 times faster than the previous Mac Pro because of the new processor and the speed of it. 








The new Mac Pro has two 18x SuperDrive at you disposal. Documents, pictures, projects, etc. on your desktop could be backed up onto two different CD's at one time. This makes the burning process a lot faster and simpler. You can even have the two CD's doing something completely different from each other. You can import music whilst backing up your data at the same time.











The Mac Pro is user-friendly and is highly recyclable. The Mac Pro is made out of aluminium enclosure, aluminium is a recyclable product. This meaning that the Mac Pro can be reused in other Mac products. There is a little bit of plastic used in the Mac Pro, but it is made form post-consumer recycled plastic. Apple also tried very hard to no use harmful toxins in their product. Because the Mac Pro used recycled materials/materials that can be recycled, it earned the highest rating of EPEAT Gold (Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool Gold). EPEAT determines how environmentally friendly the product is, the amount of energy it uses, and how is it manufactured and designed. The Mac Pro met the EPEAT Gold expectations.

Facts about iCloud

Facts about iCloud:



The following is an advert made my Apple. This commercial introduces the viewer to how iCloud works and connects with different apple products.




iCloud's purpose is to store your content. Not only does it store your content, but it ensures that all of your apps on your mac for example, are also on your iPhone and other apple appliances. You could be taking pictures outdoors on your iPhone and once they are taken, they will instantly appear on your mac at home if you use iCloud. iCloud keeps your images, contacts, notes, apps ect. up to date across all of your apple devices. iCloud is easy to use and very simple to set up.

With iCloud, you don't need to send or sync anything. iCloud will automatically ensure that all devices have the same content on them. For example, you could begin a project on Pages on your iPad. Then you could later go onto your iPhone and open up the Pages document you began on your iPhone and continue working on it (Just like the picture below).


Lastly, iCloud also ensures that if you download an app, for example, on your iPhone, the same app will immediately appear on your iPad. This is helpful to the user because it means they don't have to go around to all of their Apple devices and download the same app. iCloud does all of the work for you. 




In the picture above it shows that all of the apps that were downloaded on the iPhone have appeared on the iPad as well. If one of your devices crashes, all of your information is stored in iCloud and is also stored on your other Apple devices.

Not only does iCloud ensure that all of your Apple devices have the same data, but it also backs up everything and can help 'Save the day'.
