New MacBook Retina Travel Size Laptop

April 19, 2015

This weekend I picked up the brand new MacBook Retina with 12″ display, or what I call the MacBook Retina Travel Size. This is the smallest Apple computer ever and barely larger than my iPad. The MacBook will replace my four year old MacBook Pro 15″ that is too bulky for travel and my iPad Air that is too cumbersome to type anything of length.

There are many reviewers out there that will give you the ins and outs of the new MacBook Retina, but here are my thoughts on why it may be the perfect travel companion.

HBO for $12

HBO is the best content provider out there, although Netflix is gaining on it with original content like House of Cards, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Orange is the New Black. HBO has the best original content; past series like The Wire, The Sopranos, Band of Brothers, and new series like Game of Thrones, Veep, Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, and True Detective. Until today you had to have a cable subscription (read: sell your soul to the evil empire) in order to get HBO. But today that changed.
