iPhone 6 isn't just bigger — it's better in every way. Larger yet thinner. More powerful, yet power efficient. It's a new generation of iPhone.

For years Apple touted the iPhone 3,4,and 5 as being the best size for one handed operation. It was easy to handle but as someone over the age of 40, I am used to trying to type and spell and use grammar correctly. My awkward fingers would slow my typing to a crawl on the tightly spaced keys. That and the small type in poorly formatted emails and websites left me interested in something bigger. But size alone could not make me put up with Android phones. When this was announced, I wept for joy! Now I have it I actually see the wisdom of the previous form factor. But, the keyboard and text size win so I am coping with the slight clumsiness. If you do not want to be a two handed phone user, avoid the 6Plus.

I bought the new iPhone 6 day one but balked at $30 and $40 cases. Within 24 hours I had dropped it twice and decided that a case was a smart investment. This one was reasonably priced, seemed protective and afforded me a less slippery surface.

New next-generation graphics deliver performance levels that are up to 60 percent faster than before. And high-speed Thunderbolt I/O lets you transfer data at rates up to 10 GBps. The MacBook Pro is a great computer that just got even greater.

What about gaming??

4gb ram and Intel HD 4000 graphics severely limit gaming.

will this work (bluetooth) with my apple TV; my older MacAir would not, nor could it be connected via HDMI

I would also like to confirm that I could play my DVD's via the onboard burner? and then put them up on my big screen. Would that be hardwired HDMI or Bluetooth?
I also have an external DVD burner. Will these ports drive that? Again, I was told that even the new MacAir would not do that as they are not powered ports and most DVD's require that?
Absolutely. It has Bluetooth 4.0.
No need for an external DVD burner as it has one built in, but it does have 2 powered USB3 ports.
The Air supports the Apple USB SuperDrive and generic USB burners when it is plugged in to its charger.

With TurboWrite technology, this Samsung 850 EVO MZ-75E500B 500GB internal SATA hard drive allows you to quickly update files. The 32-layer 3D VNAND flash memory ensures reliable performance, and AES 256-bit encryption keeps your data private.
 

How does installing an SSD affect you warrantly in a new computer? Does it void your warranty?

Varies by brand. If, to install it, you have to get to a screw under a "Warranty Void If..." label, you have your answer. I usually keep the original drive so as to be able to restore the computer to stock. That also allows me to have the ability to test to see if the problem requiring warranty service is drive or software related, or a real hardware problem elsewhere. Make sure to use the right tools when doing the swap or installation and refer to repair guides at iFixit.com or YouTube.
