Apple Hits $1 Trillion Market Value

Apple, the company we all know, love and hate. Created some of the products that have now incorporated itself into our lifestyle such as the Iphone , Ipad and Watch. We know that the company is immensely rich and brings billions of dollars of revenue each year but what you may not know is that the very company has become the first US company to transcend the market value of 1 TRILLION dollars just a day ago!

Share prices reached $207.39 , rising approximately 2.9% or and has risen 23% this year. Can Apple become a leader in the rise of technological companies in the Global Economy?

It has beaten other rivals such as Google and Amazon to the race of $1 trillion valuation.

They had brought in a revenue of $53 Billion during Q3 2018, which was higher than what analysts had expected due to the amount of Iphones being sold reducing. However, they had sold the phone at higher prices which still increased their revenue.

However, they still have other hardware and software they offer to buy or subscribe to such as : Macs, Apple Music, Apple iCloud Storage and fitness products like the Apple Watch.

Apple had started off in a garage by Co founders Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne. They started off with the Macintosh , an early computer but Ronald Wayne had left the company and sold his shares (How much did he regret it!) . Many years later after the Macintosh , in 2007 , they introduced a revolution to the mobile world , the Iphone.

Fast forward 11 years and they are now one of the most widely recognised companies and are going to grow for years to come!

Fortnite Drum Gun : IS IT OP?!

The new Drum gun has been added into Fortnite through the 4.5 Content Update. There was no down time for servers and was just added into the gun. The Gun itself is very similar to the Tommy gun or Thompson WWII gun but with a large drum magazine. Fortnite describe it as a hybrid with the stopping power of an assault rifle but with the fire rate and suppressive ability of an SMG. However it is placed into the SMG category appropriately. The weapon itself is in the rarity of Uncommon and Rare. Does that mean there is a legendary SMG still coming?! The weapon has a base damage of 26/27 (Uncommon / Rare) which is a lot for an SMG and a fire rate of 9. It compensates the high fire rate with a monstrous magazine capacity of 50 rounds. It takes Medium Bullets so keep an eye on the assault rifles as you don't want to be left with no bullets for your rifles. However, it has a long reload time of 3 seconds which could be the difference between dieing and

The Correct Mindset to Learning How to Program

Programming and Software Development is one of the fastest growing sectors in the world as technology is advancing through time. Many people want to learn how to program but don't know where to start and give up easily through frustration and not committing enough. First, when you are learning how to program by learning the syntax of the language and slowly applying the skills into real world applications, you will feel like this is too much to handle and that you cannot bear this workload ! This is completely the wrong approach to learning in general. You will require dedication to this particular skill set when learning how to code. It can be a long rocky road at times but when you overcome the obstacle, in the future you will know that you did the right thing ! You will need determination and internal will-power to carry on. You will not always be spoon-fed what you need to do so you need to think critically when solving problems in programming. I

What PC Component Should YOU Upgrade ? GUIDE

Ever wondered what computer part you should upgrade but didn't know the performance increase or what benefits it will give ? Well you have come to the right place ! Computer Hardware can be mixed and matched (mostly ) creating thousands of combinations so if one upgrade improves the performance for one PC , it might not improve your computer as much. The jargon for this is called a “ bottleneck ” . This means that one or many components of your PC is restricting the computer achieving its max capabilities. In the image above, it shows the vast difference in performance during a gaming session. The bottleneck side shows how the specific components of the computer aren’t using their maximum capabilities. The GPU is not being used to its full potential , at only 50% which means there is another component bottle-necking the system. In this case it is the CPU which is being stressed at high usages whereas the GPU is “ relaxing ”. For this scenario , you
