Has Apple Finally have Done something Right!?

12.21.13

     Although its not Tuesday, something very incredible has been recently released. Apple has introduced a new computer with tons and tons of processing power. More high level than any gaming pc out there, this new Mac Pro features 2 graphics cards, 6 core Intel Xeon E5 processor, 16 DDR3 memory, and a whole lot more. This computer has the power to connect up to three 4k resolution displays.

     This is a more than perfect solution for video editing and pc gaming. My Ps4 can't even touch the power and display of this machine. Although there is high-level specs involved, of course comes high prices, but they are reasonable. An entry level model will run you $3,000. If you decide to max out, 10,000 USD. You can purchase one from here

     Now obviously unless your trying to make a custom Disney animated cartoon out your basement, this is totally unnecessary to have, but its a nice option and it kinda shows that Apple hasn't been sitting on the butts the past couple of years just playing with Air. The new glossy-cylinder like design of the Mac Pro also might be giving us a clue where Apple designs might be going in the next couple of years.

     So we all no that electronic addiction is probably a little too expensive wanting the newest iphones, android, etc but a awkward looking stereo clearing you about 5000 dollars? New Cyrus Lyric plays audio from basically any device. " Both the Lyric 05 (80W per channel, 24-bit DAC) and Lyric 09 (170W per channel, 32-bit DAC) can stream 24-bit, 192kHz tunes from other devices on a local network". To translate in English its a speaker that plays very clear audio.

      First off I would never pay such an enormous amount of money because i want my music louder and "clearer". I'm sure maybe this might be a good investment for like a place that needs loud speakers for an audience or something, but this is being marketed to the wrong people. The average consumer (with any brains) would off the jump relize this is a rip off and unnecessary. As far as the features and the specs this device doesn't really do anything that pops out and make it a must have. And one more thing both devices look exactly the same...

KBra

12.9.13 

     The new company, Kobra,  distributes technology hardware for consumers and other buisness. Although it is still in new development, it is growing steady fast. Kobra electronics was introduced in December of 2011 when a group of young individuals were tired of being broke they started selling dvd's. It was a male and a female and together they were Sales Anonymous . The male consisted of the brains and the hardwork, as for the female she just supplied the equipment. One could not work without the other and togethered it worked so as time progressed they sold more and more things and gained more and more profit.

     About 6 months in the two split apart and went there separate ways. One of the members got a job and the other one was never heard from. Since the whole point of Sales anonymous was to get money instead of not making money it was left in the dark because now he was making money... but it was only a summer job so come September he needed to start making money again so he took up the money he did have and bought equipment he needed to continue Sales Anonymous. 

      He was even more successful with sales Anonymous by himself then with his equipment cohort. Soon into the year he decided to change the name from Sales Anonymous to Kobra because it was better than how he was doing before. Kobra is now the official company name with a logo and a buisness office but is still being sold by local representatives. And for all you who still dont understand ... "ur retarded" (yes I'm aware I spelled your "ur"). 
     Kobra industries will brought to a suspicious place near you check in often to find out when
