How come when my new Macbook is closed and sleeping, it doesnt use any battery power?

Q. How come when i open it up it just resumes instantly? What do macs use that causes it to resume instantly?

A. Hello faron_ins,

Well, your MacBook does use a little bit of your battery power even in sleep mode, but not much. Hit the space bar, or open up the display and it comes right out of sleep mode. Have fun with it.

How do i connect my new macbook to the internet using a regular phone line?

Q. I am on the road, staying at my mom's house and she does not have any internet services. I have DSL at home but need to check my email while I'm here. My Mom's house is up in the mountains and there is no cell phone service around here. I need to use her regular phone line.

A. Unless your ISP includes a dial-up account for you, you cannot. Try the local library, starbucks, mcdonalds for wireless access.

How much better is the new Macbook Pro at gaming compared to the previous Pro?

Q. I am wondering if the new Pro is worth the money over a refurbished, previous generation Pro. I want to play games like COD 4, AOE3, Spore, and other relatively graphics-intensive games at high settings with smooth details. I just need to know if the new GPU is worth the money.

A. you know, I got the perfect place for you to ask this question.
