AUCTION firm eBay has slashed prices across its online store for Black Friday, including discounted MacBook Pro, iPhone 6, Xbox One and PS4 game bundles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
eBay has published a slew of Black Friday bargains.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The hugely popular online auction website has slashed prices on a range of popular items, including Apple laptops, Ultra HD 4K televisions, Xbox One and PS4 game bundles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The news comes days after <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/11/apple-ipad-air-for-1-could-be-best.html">O2 told Black Friday shoppers they could nab an Apple iPad Air 2 for £1 tomorrow</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Starting from today, eBay customers can grab a Space Grey 64GB factory unlocked Apple iPhone 6 with 12 month warranty for £364.99.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's only a limited number available and, at time of writing, the popular auctioneer claims to have already sold some 487 iPhones in the sale.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A NIFTY new leave-in flash card from TarDisk Pear promises to increase your MacBook's storage capacity – without taking the netbook apart.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The TarDisk Pear is a sleek aluminium flash drive that blends into the body of your MacBook Pro or MacBook Air and merges with its on-board memory.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It slots into the SD card port on the side of your MacBook Pro and MacBook Air and can double your available storage.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thanks to its built-in installer, the nifty leave-in SD card transforms the native SSD inside your Apple netbook into a single Fusion Drive.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"Just plug it into your MacBook, click install, and your hard drive instantly combines with TarDisk, seamlessly doubling or tripling storage on the spot," the US firm claims.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a clever trick and should ensure you never have to worry about managing two separate hard-drives on your laptop.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Instead, the Apple MacBook is simply tricked into thinking it suddenly has more capacity at its disposal.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
TarDisk Pear has also a trick up its sleeve when it comes to SSD performance.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
By always prioritising the built-in SSD in your MacBook, the system will only revert to using the slightly-slower TarDisk Pear when your HDD is full.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the additional storage starts to fill-up, the software will then keep less frequently accessed files on the flash card, exactly like Apple's own Fusion Drives.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to the firm's own benchmarks, MacBooks can show the same – or slight improvements – to disk performance when a TarDisk Pear installed. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But performance does come at a cost.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Starting from $149 for an additional 128GB, some £97 converted, and going up to $399 for the 256GB variation, around £260 converted – this is not a cheap solution.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But since Apple seals down almost-all of the components housed in the new MacBooks – it is an elegant and pain-free solution to adding more memory to your device.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div><iframe width="640" height="378" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Gut6kp-b1Yc" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another important note – since the TarDisk Pear merges and blend with your on-board storage, it means you cannot simply pop-out the SD card every time you want to take some photos from your DSLR.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The TarDisk could be holding essential system files which you don't want to suddenly remove. As a result, it's probably worth shelling out for an external SD card reader, too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But despite the hefty price-tag and the inconvenience of losing your built-in SD card reader, the TarDisk Pear is an easy way to prolong the life of an existing MacBook.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
TarDisk was founded in early 2015 backed initially by a Kick Starter crowd-funding campaign that garnered widespread acclaim and raised 393 per cent of its initial funding goal. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Founder and CEO Pierce Schiller claims the TarDisk is the only product available today that expands MacBook hard drives with no tools.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
MICROSOFT has launched a new webpage to teach MacBook owners to migrate from OS X the first ever Microsoft laptop, the Surface Book.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/surface-book-microsofts-eye-watering.html">Despite its eye-watering price tag,</a> it's clear the Surface Book is <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/surface-book-microsoft-has-massive.html">selling <em>really</em> well</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But how does Microsoft's first ever laptop appeal to? Well, Apple fanboys apparently.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Microsoft has launched <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/switch/mac-surface" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">a new page on its website</a> designed to help MacBook owners migrate to the latest gadget from Redmond.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a logical move from Microsoft, <a href="http://newsnewsblog.blogspot.com/2015/10/surface-pro-4-windows-10-threshold-band.html">which spent the majority of the Surface Pro 4 and Surface Book launch event</a> comparing its hardware directly to its Apple counterparts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
At 13.5-inches the Surface Book is a direct competitor to the 13-inch Macbook Pro – however Microsoft claims its new laptop is twice as fast as Apple's best.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The new Microsoft support page offers a range of tips for MacBook owners who are preparing to make the switch to the Surface Book.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It includes instructions on how to move your photo library, files and emails from a Mac to the Surface Book.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cloud based and local content is covered, with Microsoft includes links to download iCloud for Windows, as well as detailing which external hard-drive formats are compatible with both operating systems.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Microsoft has included a detailed guide on how to export images from the new Apple Photos app and import it into the Windows 10.</div>

A separate page with tips for long-time MacBook owners making the move to Windows 10 and the Surface Book has also been published.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Surface Book starts from $1,499 – some £980 converted – but the top-of-the-line Surface Book with a 1TB SSD, Core i7 with 16GB will cost an eye-watering $3,200 – a staggering £2,070, converted.</div>
