Capturing Screen Images on your Mac.

This is a common question we get. How do I capture a screen image on my Mac.?

When viewing webpages or programs on your Mac, you may want to capture some of the images to view later. Fortunately, every Mac lets you capture all or part of a screen image using one of the following commands:
Command-Shift-3: Saves a screenshot of the entire screen as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then select an area: Saves a screenshot of an area as a file on the desktop
Command-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Saves a screenshot of a window as a file on the desktop
Command-Control-Shift-3: Copies a screenshot of the screen to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then select an area: Copies a screenshot of an area to the clipboard
Command-Control-Shift-4, then space, then click a window: Copies a screenshot of a window to the clipboard

Ocarina iPhone app

If you haven't checked it out yet. It's worth the .99¢. Take our word for it or watch this video first:

Is a new MacBook Pro worth it when previous generations are selling for much less.

In a word, Yes. Check out this cpu shootout at barefeats.com. That plus the improved fit and finish, 50% fewer parts to fail and a graphics chip that should really shine when snow leopard ships next year+ the ability to address 6 MB of RAM. On the other hand, previous generation MBP's can be found for significanlty less and are still some of the best laptops on the planet.
