1st step is to put the mac that you are trying to re-image into target mode by pressing and holding T while it is turning on or go to system preferences and choose START UP DISK then click on the lock enter your administrator password and click on Target Disk Mode.




2nd step connect the firewire or thunderbolt cables to both macs

Computers schools should buy VS. Computers Schools shouldn't buy

The first thing is school should buy windows computers or macs for staff and students. I say that because Windows computers and Macs can basically do the same thing but macs are more simple. The Computer companies schools should buy are Lenovo and Dell. The few mac products that schools should buy is the iMac and the MacBook Pro with the 15 inch screen. The reason I specifically mentioned those computers and computer companies is because they work better than other computers in its kind. The iMac is the only Mac desktop but it is a great computer overall as to the MacBook Pro being one of the greatest mac laptops of its kind. The reasoning is its the higher end macbook that can process things faster and can do more than the Macbook air and the Macbook. The Dell inspiron 1545 is a great windows laptop for students to use so is the Lenovo Thinkpad W500 and the Lenovo Thinkpad E420. Each of those computers are the best use for students and teachers to get through the day and schools don't have to worry about the giving out because they can last drops and other kinds of accidental damage.

Now the computers that schools shouldn't buy is Chromebooks and my reasoning is Chromebooks are trash they can't run Microsoft Office or anything. They are strictly for online and they are cheap because they don't last a long time and they break easily. The worst Chromebooks ever created is the Acer and the Samsing Chromebooks.

My opinion on the Movie Boy In Striped Pajamas

In my English class  we watched a movie called "Boy in the Striped Pajamas." It is about the
Holocaust. The Ending of it was saddest part in the movie because a German boy does into the camp and dies in there. The German boy was named Bruno he was the main character in the movie and he visits a Jew in the camp and becomes friends with him. The movie overall best describes the time frame of the holocaust.
