Last week, I dropped Edward, my first Macbook. So sad.
But today, New Macbook Pro has been arrived.
I introduce Edward Jr., my new Macbook Pro, to you.
And there is a little customizing – a Solid-State-Drive instead of a Hard Drive.

# SPEC
Processor : 2.53GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
L2 cache : 3MB shared
System bus : 1066MHz
Memory : 4GB DDR3 SDRAM
Hard drive : 128GB SSD
Graphics : NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
Battery : Up to 7 hours
Etc : FireWire 800 port, SD card slot
Weight : 4.5 pounds (2.04kg)

It’s good.
Actually, SSD option gave me more than my expectation.

- Speed
Compare to my old Edward(Macbook 2.4GHz, 2GB DDR3 SDRAM, 250GB HDD), I feel triple fast its boot up and shut down, four times fast handling heavy application and files.

Okay, for example, it’s only taking 18 sec for OS X start up and 2 sec for Adobe photoshop CS4 start up. Only minus thing is it has small storage for its high price.

- Noise
There are no noise because he has no moving parts.

- Energy efficiency
Previous Macbook, I can use about 2 hours with its battery.
Now, according to official website, new model supports 7 hours use. I don’t believe it but I expect at least 4 hours of running time. (photoshop, dreamweaver, internet, documentation, music)
Instead, it lost changeable battery system.

“THIS IS IT”.

jQuery fade-in-out Slideshow

When you develop the website, most important thing is its content if you welcome new visitor through search engine. But look and feel also important to hold visitors eyes. JQuery is a fast and concise JavaScript Library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animating, and Ajax interactions for rapid web development.

Recently I’ve got a request that flash gallery looking product slideshow from one of the high-end jewelry manufacture. Flash is not the best solution for SEO & Maintenance efficiency. As I recommended, project turned to JQuery & CMS based website.

Following sample shows simple replacement of interactive slideshow.
