Descriptive Essay
I am a MacBook Pro fifteen-inch laptop model of 2016. I am a product of Apple Company United States. I have been around for close to four yeas no since my manufacture. As for the XXXX family, I have been with them for close to one and a half years now. I pack descent storage of 512 Gigabytes. With an onboard memory space of about sixteen gigabytes out of the twenty-two gigabytes allocated for running software application on my user interface or the screen. My internal processing speed is approximately three gigahertz, with a two gigabyte Radeon pro 455 graphics card that switches alternates with the inbuilt high definition Intel graphics card. Depending on the workload that I have to endure, my display capability is expandable to a limit similar to that of a 460 Radeon graphics pro adaptor of four gigabytes in memory size.
Additionally, I come with an inbuilt backlit keyboard to ease working even in the dark in the event there is no electricity. My battery power upon full charge lasts up to ten hours of use and a hypothetical thirty-day limit in case I was to be on standby, which has never happened since my purchase, by the XXXX family. Upon purchase, I came accompanied by a two-meter charge cable and an eighty-seven-watt capability power adapter, which were both type C cable designs. I also came with a three-year repair and replacement warranty in the event I underwent any damage, which I am glad I have not experienced at all so far.
I am quite delicate; if I were to fall, I would sustain extensive damage. As such, XXXX takes real good care of me. I was privileged to get a laptop cover and a sticky waterproof film to cover my keyboard; this has limited the amount of dust the gets into my motherboard. My sitting position is always dependent on three things, what I am used for at the time, where we are going, and who is using me at the time. When I am not in use, most of the time, I am positioned at a reading desk near the window under a lampstand in XXXX’S room. However, sometimes, during family movie night, I am carried to the sitting room and connected to the TV using an HDMI cable. The purpose of this is to display a documentary or movie through the enormous seventy inches Samsung smart TV mounted over the fireplace that never goes on. During family trips or school visits, I am located in XXXX’S backpack. The bag is quite comfortable as it’s padded. My interaction with the XXXX’S family is mostly with her permission. No one gets to use me without prior notice. The rules are so stringent because all xxx’s documents, school work, and personal work are stored in my memory. In the event I was to suffer a computer virus attack, XXXX’ could quickly lose all this data.
My everyday routine is quite intriguing. I am always in use except when I am on the move. The only time I am on standby is either when everyone is asleep or when everyone has breakfast, lunch, dinner, or in-between preparations to start the day. As far as our relationship with XXXX goes, it is quite good. XXXX uses me mostly for school work. However, sometimes, I am used to listening to music, podcasts, documentaries, or movies. Over the holidays, I become almost insignificant to xxx unless when I am connected to a laptop and used to make online purchases. Many other times during the holiday, XXXX prefers to be on the phone, either texting, calling, or even listening to podcasts and music. During this time, I often spend my time with XXXX’S younger brother.
Our relationship with him is also good. It is more often than not a symbiotic relationship. He takes time to make upgrades to my software and from time to time, gets me some nice hardware upgrades. Recently, he got me an excellent wireless mouse; this has eased the traffic on my trackpad, that’s a relief. My trackpad was already beginning to wear out. In return, he mostly uses me to play computer games. I would even say he is the one who gets to maximize the use of my inbuilt Radeon graphics adaptor. Having a friendly user-interface allows him even at a young age to efficiently navigate my applications. Through the constant interaction with my gaming software and applications, he has begun a naughty habit. He hides his game applications in my rather distinct icons that no one would expect. He does this to avoid having them deleted by XXXX, making him have to download and install the games over and over again.
My set for deciphering meaning is based on an inbuilt system that interprets meaning from the date that has been keyed into my system. It works like a human brain, processing what is heard, seen, and felt. In my case, I process what is keyed into my system the keyboard, mouse, and light pen. I also handle and display scanned data from the scanner that sits adjacent to my sitting position in XXXX’S room. Sometimes, though not frequently, XXXX transfers data from her phone through a phone USB cable into my storage memory for safekeeping. I also double in the processing of instructions keyed into my system, like an order to print a document. The process is simple, I process commands, and just like brain signals in the human body, I send electronic messages to the three in one printer-scanner-copier that sits next to me on the reading table.
In conclusion, despite our excellent relationship with XXXX, I cannot do anything on my own. I only process commands input by XXXX or whoever is using me at the time. Moreover, despite being very light and portable, I cannot put myself into a bag, XXXX has to do it. As such, our relationship with XXXX, the family, and anyone using me at the time is purely co-dependent. I mean, you carry, charge, and feed commands into my system, and I give back display of type or scan or print out of the document you need.
