The ultimate mobile powerhouse.

It's all about performance. If you want desktop-class graphics and a bigger display, you want the all-new MacBook Pro. With a double graphics punch - both integrated and discrete NVIDIA graphics processors - the 15-inch MacBook Pro is fast enough to run the most graphics-intensive games and professional applications, but portable enough to come along for the ride.

Precision aluminum unibody enclosure.
Machined from a single piece of aluminum, the new 15-inch MacBook Pro is sleeker, thinner, and years ahead of its time.

LED-backlit display.
The new MacBook Pro features an ultrathin 15-inch LED-backlit display that is uniformly bright and brilliant from the moment you turn it on. It's completely arsenic- and mercury-free and more power efficient than ever.

Advanced NVIDIA graphics processors.
Get the most out of graphics-intensive applications like Motion and Aperture. The MacBook Pro features both the NVIDIA 9400M integrated graphics processor and a high-performance NVIDIA 9600M GT discrete graphics processor.

Multi-Touch trackpad.
This trackpad has no button: It is the button. With a smooth glass surface, this spacious trackpad brings even more Multi-Touch gestures and functionality to the 15-inch MacBook Pro.

4. Time Machine Explained - Apple's Revolutionary Backup software is included in Leopard (OS X 10.5) but should not be overlooked. It is simply the easiest backup system ever created. If you aren't using it - WHY NOT?

tm

If you want to feel completely relaxed about the security and safety of your data, look no further. Leopard is a great OS and Time Machine is just one of the features that makes it so.

Ridiculously easy to setup:
Just plug in an external drive and click 'Yes' to the dialog that comes up asking if you want this to be your backup drive.

Extremely easy to recover from:

icon

Just click on the Time Machine icon in your dock and surf back through your Hard Drive, or iPhoto etc. When you find the file you want just hit restore.

 

 

Never again worry about losing your digital files. Time Machine automatically saves up-to-date copies of everything on your Mac — photos, music, videos, documents, applications, and settings. If you ever have the need, you can easily go back in time to recover anything.

Set it, then forget it.
Time Machine works with your Mac and an external hard drive. Just connect the drive and assign it to Time Machine and you’re a step closer to enjoying peace of mind. Time Machine will automatically back up your entire Mac, including system files, applications, accounts, preferences, music, photos, movies, and documents. But what makes Time Machine different from other backup applications is that it not only keeps a spare copy of every file, it remembers how your system looked on a given day — so you can revisit your Mac as it appeared in the past.

Every change, every hour.
Following the initial backup of your entire Mac, Time Machine automatically makes incremental backups every hour, every day, copying just the files that have changed since your last backup. And it does this all in the background so you can continue working while Time Machine is busy copying your files. Time Machine saves the hourly backups for the past 24 hours, daily backups for the past month, and weekly backups for everything older than a month.

Go back in time.
Say you accidentally deleted a file you meant to save. Simply enter the Time Machine browser and you’ll see exactly how your computer looked on the dates you’re browsing. You can browse for files using Cover Flow or perform a Spotlight search to find what you need. Use the timeline to select a specific date, or let Time Machine fly through time to find your most recent changes. Before recovering a file, use Quick Look to verify the contents of the file, then click Restore to bring it back to the present.

Ready when you are.
When your mobile Mac is connected to your backup drive, Time Machine works as you’d expect. When it isn’t connected, Time Machine also works as you’d expect. It keeps track of which files have changed since the last backup and backs them up to your backup drive the next time you connect. On any Mac, if Time Machine is unable to perform a backup, that’s duly noted in its preference pane.

Migration with style.
If you’re setting up a new Mac with files from an old Mac, Time Machine can help simplify the process. Just use Migration Assistant to copy portions of any Time Machine backup to a new Mac, or select “Restore System from Time Machine” in the Leopard DVD Utilities menu. Choose any date recorded in Time Machine to set up your new Mac exactly as your previous Mac was on that date.

And the real bonus... it's not expensive! It is included with the Mac OS - all you need is an External Hard Drive!

Email me to order your Backup Drive today, or order online (from links below) - and start feeling SAFE!!!

I highly recommend ther 1TB or 2TB WD Studio edition Drives. Silent, 5 years warranty and very reliable. We always keep stock as our best selling drive.

For Laptops, the compact portable bus powered My Passport Studio and Studio II drives are a great idea. Take with you anywhere - no mains power needed.
