Week in review – 06/24/13 – 06/30/13

This past week, I replaced my trusty chromebook with new Macbook Air.  I got the 11.6″ one with a haswell i5 CPU, 8gb of RAM, and a 256gb SSD.  It should be significantly more powerful than the chromebook but, most importantly, it should have a really good battery life.

I’ve never been a big fan of OS X but beyond my experiment with a PowerBook, a few years ago, I haven’t given it much of a chance.  I’ve told myself that I would give it one month before I decide whether or not to replace it with ubuntu.  Don’t be surprised if you see a lot of Mac posts pop up on here in the near future.
