I am going to tell you about my MacBook that my father got me back in high school. It was a rose gold MacBook M1. He got it for me for my RGCSE exam so I could study from it. Honestly, at first I didn’t know how to exactly use it. I only used to open the browser, open YouTube or games because I was very young at that time. However, after some time has passed I started to actually understand how it functions, how it works, plus how it actually helped me. And especially in two subjects which were computer science and ICT, it helped me very much because in these subjects I need the computer and I needed to edit some documents and also we used to build new websites. So through the laptop I was able to do this. Also, I watched very nice videos to understand how to use it. And also I used to solve pass papers for my RG exams in the laptop and it used to correct it for me. So I was really satisfied with my experience and my laptop specialty was totally different from the laptops that were available or released at that period of time. Through the software it has, how fast it used to function and how portable and thin it was. So I was really happy with it.

However, after some time passed, I started to understand how it functions, how it works, and how it actually helped me. Especially in two subjects, which were computer science and ICT, it helped me a lot because in these subjects I needed the computer to edit documents, and we also built new websites. Through the laptop, I was able to do this. I also watched great videos to understand how to use it. I used to solve past papers for my RG exams on the laptop, and it would correct them for me. I was really satisfied with my experience, and my laptop was totally different from the laptops that were available or released at that time. The software it had, how fast it functioned, and how portable and thin it was made me really happy with it.
