Apple Product of the Day by Scott Morris

I'm so sorry to all of you that read the Apple Product of the Day, I know I haven't done any posts in quite a while, I have been moved to a different guided group.
Today, the Apple product of the day is the iPod Classic. The Classic is amazing for the type of person who is always downloading new music, videos, games etc. Basically, that means it's amazing for capacity. It has 160 GB of memory, which means it holds 40,000 songs; and 200 hours of video. The iPod Classic comes in quintessential silver, with a white Click Wheel; or it comes in striking black, with a dark black Click Wheel. Both cost $249. It's also amazing for battery life, it plays up to 36 hours of audio; and 6 hours of video. When you buy the iPod Classic, it comes with: the iPod Classic, Earphones, USB cable, and a dock adapter. The display is a 2.5 inch (diagonal) color LCD with LED backlight, it has 320-by-240 pixel resolution at 163 pixels per inch. The iPod Classic also has little things on it like Genius Playlists, and Cover Flow. Overall, I think the iPod Classic is very unique and beautiful. It is a great iPod and I would recommend it to a person that is buying an iPod and needs a lot of space. I, myself, do not have one, but I have used them from time to time at Apple stores, Best Buy, and Sam's Club. Also, if I were to buy an iPod Classic, I would get the striking black one and I would get it at Sam's Club. That is were I bought my iPod Touch because they always have cheaper prices on iPods and sometimes they have amazing deals on Black Friday and other times.

Movie Review: TRON Legacy

What's up, it's Bryan here, with a review of TRON Legacy, the sequel to the 1982 film TRON. I just saw this movie, and I loved it!

First off, the acting was great. Jeff Bridges played an excellent, dramatic role. Garrett Hedlund played a great part, and Olivia Wilde was amazing!


Legacy picks up where the first one left off, a 12 year old boy (Hedlund) is with his father (Bridges)when his father goes missing. The rest, well, I really can't tell you.

But, the CGI (Computer Generated Images) are amazing. There are some super action-packed scenes with the Light Cycles. With this movie, you will also get an extremely dramatic ending and a superb story line.

The soundtrack with this is done by Daft Punk, a well known French techno band. They did a great job as well!

Overall, I rate this movie a full 5 stars, it is a total go-to flick! Go watch it right now!

Alright world, until next time, bye bye....
