In 1976, Apple was just an idea being made in a garage by Steve Wozniak and the well-known owner of Apple, Steven Jobs. The two were college drop-outs and were looked at as outcasts. The first invention that Apple introduced was the Apple I. On April 1, 1976 Apple computer was made a reality (Glen). The company did not take off until 1977, when Apple introduced the Apple II. The Apple II was the first personal computer to have plastic casing and color graphics (Glen). Then in early 1978, the Apple Disk II was invented. It was Apple’s most inexpensive product of the time and had easy to use floppy disk (Glen). By 1980, the Apple III had been invented and the sales were increasing and so was the company. Apple had several of thousand employees and managers and had developed many investors. Fast forward twenty-one years to 2001, when Apple made the iPod.

Have you ever wondered how some athletes have gotten so good at a certain sport? Have you ever thought about what they did in order for them to get this good? For some the answer is simple; workout and train. But for others the answer is different; the use of performance enhancing drugs such as steroids. There are some people that argue that steroids should be legalized and allowed in professional sports. Other people argue that steroids should not be allowed. Today I am going to state my opinion and justify my reason. Steroids should not be allowed in professional sports because it can be very dangerous to the athlete’s health, it is a way to gain and un-fair advantage and it can be dangerous in both social and physical aspects.
“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him” (G.K. Chesterton). A soldier is a soldier no matter what. If they fight behind a screen, on the front line, or from a controller as long as they’re protecting this country, the people in it, and the people fighting for it they are honorable. Some think that because one does their fighting from a remote control drone means that they have no understanding of war, and in some ways that is true, but they are still taking someone’s life when they choose to press that button just like the solders on the front line takes someone’s life when they pull the trigger. Both people are fighting the same fight: they love the country they are defending the people in it they just do it from different standpoints. Drones
Google Chromecast is developed so that the consumer can access plenty of apps instead of just what is in the apple store. Google Chromecast is able to stream from your devices (laptop, cellphone, etc.) to your TV to make it better to view than other programs. Google Chromecast, along with appropriate software integration on multi-screen devices, allow for shared presentational use of the TV through the playlisting of video streams (McGill, Williamson, & Brewster, 2015). The marketing strategy of Google Chromecast has to encompass the old 4 P’s as well, but it is all to gain the same objective, which is high profit, keeping current customers engaged and gaining more customers to use their
Imagine dedicating your life to a university not only on the academic level, but also the athletic level. With a full scholarship your time is dedicated to getting to class on time, finishing assignments, and making it to mandatory practices while also maintaining a strict workout schedule. With your day pretty much full of responsibilities, you do not have the time for a job to pay for anything that you may need outside of tuition, books, and housing. If your car breaks down or you run out of gas you have to pay for that out of your own pocket which is fairly difficult when you do not have an income to cover the costs and if you accept money or free services from any businesses, you could lose you eligibility as a NCAA athlete and lose your
Below table illustrates the percentage of users stating the main three advantages of these services: (ACMA commissioned survey, 2015) SVOD users Watch whenever I want/at a time that suits me 49 Greater Choice of content 44 Cost/no contract 21 It even depends on the country in which a person is living like in Australia half of the US shows are not broadcasted and some of them when they are aired it is already mid past half of a season’s show. No doubt Netflix etc can get pretty expensive sometimes but at least one gets to watch their favorite shows on time and not pay for channels on TV which are of least interest. Different age group people have different hours spent watching these services. Below table describes the number of hours spent by people of different age groups.
What many people suffer with deciding which one to choose is obvious – is it truly what it’s worth? Hulu and Netflix are commonly used as a much cheaper alternative to cable. Both services offer a low price of eight dollars a month, but Netflix does not have ads, so you won’t be interrupted during ever climax of your television show or movie. Netflix also has other package deals, for instance, instead of the unlimited streaming movies/episodes, you can have unlimited one-disc rentals at a time or twelve dollars for two discs at a time. If you want both unlimited disc’s and streaming its sixteen dollars, which is not much more money if you want newer movies or seasons.
Albert Einstein once said, “It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity.” This quote is fully representative of society today. It has distracted us from..... One second my best friend just texted me… Ok what was I saying?.. Oh right; It has distracted us from our studies, our loved ones, and even our driving. Technology is making us less intelligent, oblivious to our surroundings, and antisocial.
Video marketing is the use of videos to market or promote a brand, service or product. A video is a more vivid, lively and memorable presentation of the marketing message, which results in enhanced search engine ranking, more conversions and click through rates, and better sales.

Today, online video marketing has become popular because it is cheaper to implement and the videos can be distributed on channels like YouTube with amazing ease.
Shopping for a new television can be a headache, especially with all the new technology and innovations. I read a review Samsung ln32b360 that was raving about how good it was, so I headed to the local electronics and appliance store to check it out. The Samsung had the most stunning color of all the TVs I looked at, and it also had the sharpest images and clarity. The internal speakers sound great, and the multiple component input and output jacks will let me hook up an array of external speakers to enhance the sound experience even more. It also comes with two HDMI cable and computer inputs.
For the people that desire a device that excels in specific criteria, whether that might be performance (computer gamers), portability, or price there are other devices meant for those purposes. Research has shown that most people would prefer a well-rounded device that can meet a variety of criteria with minimal compromise. The fact that the MacBook Air has met these criteria while still being compatible with other devices and programs is what makes it the best laptop. While it is unknown where technology is going, it is safe to say that Apple will continue to hold its place at the top. While other companies have tired to make a similar product, no one has made a true comparison to the MacBook Air.
