Apple MacBook Pro (2011) MC721LL/A 15.4 Inch Laptop

Editor's PreviewThe MacBook is all nice and fine, and can handle all the productivity tasks that most people need from a computer. But the MacBook Pro holds the real power of the Mac system. Even some of the more basic MacBook Pro configurations can handle the media editing tasks for which this line has become famous; the more decked-out versions are the machines that pros use for nimble photo, video, and music editing.

By Dan Forootan The 21st century hasn’t been an easy one for traditional radio. Those traveling by car used to have no choice but to listen to the radio while driving, but today’s 30-somethings have never known a car without a tape deck or compact disc player and drivers of all ages can now plug their iPod into a jack and drive as far as they want without ever listening to the radio. Those who want to listen to the radio, meanwhile, often do so via satellite radio, which carries with it a fairly ample subscription fee but offers hundreds of channels and a minimal amount of commercials in exchange. And how about the pre-teen crowd? When they’re watching movies in the back seat, how can they ever develop a fondness for listening to the radio—and experience the surge of adrenaline when a favorite...
