Hello Fellow Tech Enthusiasts,

I hope your January is an uplifting start to your new year! All of us here at Small Dog Electronics are looking forward to what Apple comes up with this year. Many of us are crossing our fingers for a new lightweight unibody design that combines the 13” Air and 13” Pro, and we’re all hoping for USB 3.1.

Whether you are using your Mac for writing a dissertation, running your business, reading the latest news, or watching movies, it is still the same computer all of us know and love. Let’s learn more about them!

I enjoyed the two most recent episodes of the Podcast 99% Invisible. One of them was on product and brand sound (“The Sizzle”), and went into detail on the Apple Start-Up Chime. The second was discussing the broad gap between an introductory user of computers and an enthusiast/professional (“Of Mice and Men”).

I have to get back to repairing computers, but it was great to chat, and my fellow technicians and I have prepared some interesting reads just for you!
