Ok, so I’m putting this blog post together for those of you who have a 2010 model 15″ MacBook Pro (Model Identifier MacBookPro6,2) - which is what my below experience has been with, however, I’m thinking that most MacBook’s will exhibit similar issues.

I’m not all that interested in TV shows myself, but, I really can’t wait until the iTunes movie store comes here, it’s going to make life so much easier for me! Roll on my [...]

I’ve long toyed with the idea of moving over to shoot with RAW images, however, other than a few little tests here and there, I haven’t really seen how I can benefit from the move. Barry has been at me for a long time to make the jump, but, it took me until Sunday, at [...]
