Our new podcast: Meet...
We know. Podcasts are so last year - but this one you won't want to miss. Whether it’s a rumor that won’t die, a new product announcement, or just a really good Macintosh or iPhone app find that we have to let you know about, we’ll make sure it’s covered on Appletellcast.
iPhone App Reviews
iPhone Apps. They were great when the App Store was first announced and we could all pick and chose what we wanted, but the number is now overwhelming. Here at Appletell, we'll detail the great iPhone apps we find, and steer you clear from those that aren't worth it even if they're free.
iPhone Game Reviews
As Apple turns the iPhone into one of the most popular gaming devices, the staff of Appletell--gamers and Apple fans alike--are here to help you get the most entertainment value out of your app store purchases.
Some users remove the battery from their MacBook or MacBook Pro when connected to power in order to extend the battery’s lifespan, but it seems quite unexpected to see this large a performance hit when this is done.
Apple publicly documents this on their website. It turns out that Apple justifies this speed reduction because it “prevents the computer from shutting down if it demands more power than the A/C adapter alone can provide.”
A 37% speed decrease just because the laptop doesn’t have the battery installed seems a little silly, but if you want the maximum performance from your MacBook or MacBook Pro, keep the battery in when connected to power.
