One of the great things about Apple laptops is how long their batteries last, both in terms of usage (MacBook Air’s can last up to 13 hours) and in terms of how long the batteries last before failing.

When Apple launched the new 12” Retina MacBook, many people were shocked to see the computer had just one port. It was the same reaction we saw when Apple choose to eliminate disc drives on the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro and iMac. You might be thinking, “computer’s are supposed to be getting better with time, right? Why does it seem like we’re moving backwards?” The answer lies in the future of computing: mobility. Apple’s goal is to make its laptops more like iPads and iPhones.
In addition to Apple’s standard white Lightning to USB cables, CityMac offers some fantastic third-party cables that offer variety in terms of length, color and overall feel. Let’s take a look at a few of our favorites
If you have a desk or workspace, your phone is often left laying around on its back without a real “home.” The Bluelounge Milo stand is an elegant, minimalistic and downright magical solution. It uses micro-suction (tiny, tiny suction cups) to grip your phone, making it appear like it’s floating in mid-air. It’s strong enough to hold an iPhone 6 Plus without leaving any sticky residue on your device.
