Apple has a history of “addition by subtraction” when it comes to ports and drives. It has over the years ditched FireWire, Ethernet, and optical drives. Now, with, it says goodbye to all but a lone.
Inevitably, the new MacBook Air is available in three different colours; gold, silver, and the 'space grey' that in Apple's current design language says 'this is for serious-minded pro users'. The 13-inch MacBook Pro with optical drive currently costs $1,199, while the most affordable 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina Display is $100 more expensive at $1,299.
Couple days ago Oracle developers on Mac OS X received Easter present – finally Oracle Database 10g was released for Mac OS X 10.5 Intel platform.

I made a quick attempt in installing Oracle on a clean Mac OS X 10.6 snow leopard again. This time I tweaked several scripts and makefiles a little bit, including specified the compiler/linker to 4.0.1, which is same version.
This probably was inevitable. So just how big of an adjustment are you in for? Bigger than you might realize. At least for now. How we push data to and from our machines constantly evolves thanks to the steady progress of new standards, faster wireless connectivity, streaming services, and the cloud. Apple tends to anticipate these changes—and in some cases force the issue, often being among the first to banish old-guard tech from its devices.
It’s been a successful strategy; just ask any phone with a physical keyboard. But the new ultraportable MacBook doesn’t just nip an optical drive here and a FireWire port there. It cleans house.
And while we’re accustomed to hermetically sealed, port-barren devices in our pockets and on our coffee tables, a laptop with plenty of connectivity options is part of what makes minimalism possible elsewhere. With the new MacBook, your “plug and play” options are a 3.5mm headphone port and a USB-C port—a standard that isn’t exactly swimming in compatible components just yet. The good news is that USB-C is versatile.
It’s a standard that, unlike the stalled Thunderbolt interface, will be embraced by many devices and peripherals that don’t originate in Cupertino. It’s capable, too; the port on the new MacBook can shuttle data at 5Gbps, it can charge and be charged by whatever it’s hooked up to, it supports video out, and it's tiny. The only bad news about the shift to USB-C ports is the MacBook has one of them. Dangling Dongles Of course, there are ways to compensate, though not as many as you might think. The cheapest, most direct way to get your USB devices to play nice with a USB-C port is a (or, whose features two USB-C ports).
That’s a good start, but it still limits your choices to hooking up a single device or charging your laptop. The same solutions and limitations apply to video editors.
Videos taken with an iPhone can be magically ported to the machine via iCloud, Dropbox, or most other cloud services of your choice, so that’s easy enough. USB-C can handle video files zipping back and forth (through an adapter or new cable, for now). Other wireless transfer options aren't very practical for files of the sizes you'll be dealing with. The most likely setup for a wired-in connection will be a USB 3.0 or 3.1 cable running from a video-capture device through a dongle. Storage Your USB-C external hard drive options are non-existent right now, but help is on the way. This summer, SanDisk will offer a 32GB thumbdrive with USB-C and full-size USB connectors.
