| Bought an iPad Air 2 | Dec 14, 2014 |
... Finally!
Just picked it up from Best Buy yesterday. It nearly instantly rendered all my other Apple devices redundant(no more lugging the Macbook Air around the house). True to form, at 1/3 the weight of the 13" Macbook Air, it's like an extension of my person since I can carry it in one hand everywhere I go. 真可谓爱不释手。...

我的ipad 4使用频率也很高。你的ipad air2应该更轻了。

Thank you, Zhoudan. I remember you recommending the iPad to me more than a year ago, while we were in the middle of discussing that opening passage from "The Great Gatsby". It sure took me long enough to take action. On the other hand, I'm glad I waited for the iPad Air 2 with the souped-up A8X chip.
For what I mostly do, namely checking my mail, reading and watching CNN news, etc., an iPad is really all I need. And it is so energy efficient; the power bar hardly budges after long stretches of use.

| Spilled Milk Test | Jan 5, 2015 |
http://www.proz.com/post/2314799#2314799
Steve,
Happy New Year!
Two days ago, I accidently spilled a glass of milk onto my MacBook Air while watching news on its screen. The accident took place exactly in the same way as shown in the above video clip I posted sometimes ago. The keyboard of my MacBook Air was almost completely immersed in the milk. I immediately took all necessary actions to remove the milk from the MacBook and then let it dry out on a shelf in the past two days. I thought the MacBook might be dead because I remember very well that the MacBook Air failed the water test in the above video clip. This morning, I turned on its power while keeping my fingers crossed. Miraculously, the MacBook came back alive and everything appeared to be normal. I was surprised to see that my MacBook Air survived the Spilled Milk Test!

Yueyin,
Happy New Year to You! I'm sure you enjoyed a wonderful family get-together overall during the holidays, despite the little milk-spilling mishap. I'm glad to hear that the MacBook Air survived the Spilled Milk Test too, and didn't spoil any of your fun. 
Coincidentally, mine also survived an accidental drop couple of days ago. I wasn't too alarmed immediately after the drop took place, since I clearly remembered the results of the abuse test. The height mine fell from was a lot less, so there was indeed nothing to worry about.

Steve,
Thank you! Yes, we did enjoy a wonderful family reunion during the holidays.
I think I’d better treat my MacBook with more care from now on. In an accident like this, it is likely that the battery would be damaged instantly. I was just lucky this time.

| Apple's 4Q success in China | Jan 28, 2015 |
http://www.cnbc.com/id/102374338
Apple's growth in China: As good as it gets?
- Ansuya Harjani Jan. 28, 2015
China was a knockout success for Apple in the fourth quarter where demand for its latest iPhones propelled a 70 percent on-year rise in revenue, and analysts are now tipping the first quarter to be even better.
Gift-buying in the lead up to Chinese New Year holiday, which falls on February 19-20, will likely drive iPhone sales even higher this quarter, say analysts. The first quarter is typically the strongest for smartphone sales in the mainland due to the holiday season.
"Apple has not yet reached its maximum level in China. January and February is the big shopping season leading up to Chinese New Year," said Tom Kang. "I think the first quarter may be even bigger than the fourth quarter for Apple."

| Paperless Flight Plans | Apr 29, 2015 |
http://money.cnn.com/2015/04/29/technology/american-airlines-ipad/index.html
...
In 2013, American Airlines became the first airline to have its pilots rely entirely on iPads for flight plans and navigation. Plans get updated all the time, so the company cut down on lots of excess paper.
The airline has estimated the paperless program saves the company at least 400,000 gallons of fuel every year. In all, 8,000 iPads replaced 24 million pages of documents. ...

| Eight years after the spilled milk test | Jan 5, 2023 |
整整八年前，我在此提到我的 MacBook Air 经受了一次 Spilled Milk Test。八年过去了，这台 MacBook Air 仍能正常工作，只是在天气潮湿时，略有一些异常。估计是因为里面的干牛奶吸收水分后所致。我曾想把它拆开，彻底清理一下，但我儿子对我说，“您自己瞎拆，没准儿就让它交代了。别费那个劲儿了！”于是他又送了我一台 MacBook Pro。但我有时仍要上那台 MacBook Air 寻找以前存在里面的资料。

好古老的帖子了！ 苹果不是必备，甚至翻译时苹果很鸡肋
比如我做字幕翻译，Mac上没有任何适合的软件！苹果只有音频行业好用（也许还有图像）PS 我就是做音频的
