  • Passive Income – October

    At the beginning of last month I made a post about my quest to earn money doing nothing, or passive income if you will. Here are the results for the month of October, I made $63.19 in passive income, here’s the break down…

    • Interest: $11.13
    • Dividends: $13.22
    • Credit Card Rewards: $16.57
    • AdSense: $7.17
    • Text Ads: $15

    This blog generated nothing in AdSense income, which is sad, I also didn’t end up doing anything with Revver, so no love there either.

  • MacBook and Macbook Pro Updated

    Guess they weren’t kidding when they said updates in early November!

    The rumors were rampant about the pending upgrade; now the deal is done. The Apple MacBook has finally moved to the Santa Rosa architecture with a healthy GMA X3100 video bump from the lethargic GMA 950 of yore. Available now starting at $1,099 for the 13-inch, 80GB, 2GHz white model on up to $1,499 for the 160GB, 2.2GHz black variety of hard-posing laptop.

    The MacBook Pro can now be configured with an optional 2.6GHz Core 2 Duo for a $250 premium over the previous 2.4GHz flag-ship configuration.
