Farewell to Flash

17.05.12

I repaired the solid-state disk using Apple’s Disk Utility. I cleared my caches. I blamed my browser and switched to another one. (At various points, I’ve used Safari, Chrome, and, most recently, Firefox as my primary browser.) Some of these tactics seemed to help -- emphasis on “seemed” -- but they didn’t resolve the situation permanently.

When the Mac was in one of its moods, it was no fun at all. That’s one reason why I’ve found myself using my iPad 2 (equipped with a Zagg keyboard ) more often than the Air over the past three months. But I never stopped wanting the Mac to work better.

Then it struck me. The iPad, unlike any Mac or Windows PC I’ve ever used, is pretty much bulletproof. It doesn’t get bogged down. It has no equivalent of the spinning beach ball. Even its worst technical problems can almost always be fixed by powering it down.

8 Questions – Potential Apple Customer – MBP 13” w/SSD 256 - oBlurb

by oadmin

After reading around, I have heard of some problems with Mac OS X + SSDs slowing down after a while because of no “TRIM support” or whatever (don’t know much about it.) But basically the problem is supposed to be that deleted files don’t get “emptied” on the SSD, and it takes time to rewrite, or something, idk. Anyways, here are my questions about the MBP 13” w/SSD:

1.) How do I take care of the SSD in my MBP? (What steps, if any, do I need to take to make sure the SSD runs fast, even later on in it’s life? Does this involve somehow erasing or emptying everything on it? How often should I do this? Are there risks of breaking the SSD? Can someone who is capable with computers, but not a genius do it? etc.) 4.) How are the Apple SSDs compared to an SSD that I order and install myself? (I’m not much of a DIYer, but if Apple is giving out stinky SSD’s… you know, I don’t want to be ripped off. I’m sure I’m already paying more than its worth ordering from Apple. Are they good SSDs? I don’t care about minor differences; is the difference between them and an even higher end one that noticeable? Are the Apple SSDs gonna give the 15-18 second boot times and fast App launches like you see in all those youtube videos?) 8.) I am in the market for a laptop that will last ~5+ years. Will the MBP 13” 256SSD do the job? (I am aware that new ones are coming out fairly soon. While I could wait a little, I do need one sooner rather than later, and I think this version is plenty powerful for what I will use it for: web+video playing+music listening and casual production+writing+light gaming.) What is the projected overall maintenance like for a Macbook Pro in order to get it to last 5+ years? How often am I going to have to replace parts?

In an official apology to customers, Apple says it will soon offer a software update to correct the "simple and surprising" reception problems with the iPhone 4.
