Entry #2 Apple Makes a Brick

Tech News

After many days over speculation and rumours of a new MacBook to come from Apple, today the "Brick" or so it was code named might be introduced on October 14th at the next MacBook event. Apple is of course keeping their lips sealed but the event title and slogan make it pretty obvious as to what is coming. So for those of you out there thinking of buy your the first Mac or itching to upgrade you Mac and calm you Apple fix, you might want to freeze that credit card for another week.

So as to what the new MacBook and MacBook pro will look like well the few leaked pictures on Apple Insider shows a solid Aluminium case for better toughness and sexy factor. As for hardware specs we will probably see a larger hard drive and better battery life, but you just never know what Jobs has up his sleeve.

Gadgets

Now this really is not a gadget but its geek cred factor is way up there making this new concept car from Mazda called Kiyora our gadget of the day. The concept car is not only designed to be more fuel efficient but it also uses it specially designed hood and a built in purification system to produce clean drinkable water for you thirty travelers. The car uses a channel in the roof of the car to funnel rain water (or soupy car wash water if you think about it) into it purification system purifying the water and storing it in a bottle in the car. Now I know this is just a concept car but how many times have you been driving in the rain and thinking to yourself, "Boy I am thirsty... I could stop at 7-11 but man the rain water looks refreshing"
