Save Time With TextExpander for Mac
Jun 16th
Do you like saving time? Do you find yourself typing the same thing over and over again on a daily basis? Why not try TextExpander for Mac? TextExpander is a Mac application which allows you to give it some text that you routinely type and then set an abbreviation for the text. For example, say I always type “CPAley’s Tech Blog”. I could set it so that when I type bblog it automatically takes bblog and replaces it with “CPAley’s Tech Blog”.
TextExpander has to be one of the best productivity apps out there. It’s more of a tool than an More >

Late 2009 Apple predictions
Sep 27th
We all know that some time soon Apple is going to hold an event and update its product line for the holiday season. Here are some of the updates that I expect Apple to make at the predicted event.
1. Updated Macbooks and Macbook Pros
I expect Apple to keep the $999.99 base price on the white Macbooks but make some great changes. Starting with design; I expect apple to give the Macbook some new colors and maybe a newer design. I also expect a built-in battery with higher battery life and possibly a FireWire 800 port.

Aug 28th
By: Colby Aley
Here are a few questions that I have for all you Mac users:
Have you bought your copy of Snow leopard yet? How it it? I have heard that some people ate getting more than 7GB back that Apple said they would. How much storage space has Snow leopard given you back? Have you noticed any bugs or problems in Snow Leopard? How much faster is it?
Lastly, is it worth the $29?
Please, either leave a comment or email me at Colby@cpaleytech.com with your response!
