    TG Pro (Lightweight) Tutorial: Stop Burning your Lap

    I filmed a short tutorial on using TG Pro for new Mac users. This app helps keep temperatures low by increasing Macs' fan rates. I've found that setting the fans a bit faster by default remains inaudible yet boosts performance and more importantly, comfort if using the Macbook on your lap...

    Late 2020 16" MacBook Pro Predictions

    I was hoping to buy a future-proofed & maxed-out MacBook Pro (with the best GPU) for starting university this fall. I felt the 16" released back in November was only a warm-up for something really big for 2020. I imagined a no-bezels miniLED 14.1" display with a new deca-core i9 CPU, paired with...

So I thought of getting a relative to buy the battery from some store or website in USA and get it here with him. Apple doesn't manufacture or...

I'm guessing that is because that particular part must require replacement more often than the...
