This school holiday, get yourself a copy of 8.5″ x 11″ hardcover Fotobook (20 pages, worth RM129) for free, with every purchase of a MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, or iMac. Offer valid from 21 -31 August 2009, or while stocks last.

And to better kick-start you holiday, do something for the society. From 21-23 August 2009, Switch@Gurney Plaza (old wing, near Popular Bookstore) will be having a Charity Clearance Sale. Here is how it works. Donate to SPCA (Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), Penang on the spot, and you are entitled to enjoy the promotional price for selected items in the outlet from as low as RM1.

What do we have in store? You may ask. Some old, and some new. SPCA, Penang will be showcasing some of their merchandises and promoting their cause in the outlet during the 3 days. If you have been thinking of dressing up your old iPod – at a lower price, now could be the best time. iPod and Mac accessories are priced starting from RM1 during these 3 days, and as long as you make a donation (in any amount that you are comfortable with, eg: RM1, or RM100), you may enjoy the special price. We are still working on finalising the items on sale and prices, and hopefully will be able to post up the best deal here tomorrow, so stay tuned!

Switch@Gurney Plaza, Switch@Queensbay Mall, and Switch@Sunway Carnival Mall are proud to be three of the venues selling tickets for Break Out – Extreme Dance Comedy, a charity performance in Penang.

Break Out sets to be one of the most expensive stage performances in Penang. These London West End and Broadway performers will amaze their audience with their new concept of non verbal production.

Break Out tells the tale of five clumsy convicts who long to taste the freedom that lies beyond the walls of prison. These five prisoners are inspired to plan a daring escape into the outside world when they received a mysterious and sacred text.

The story is told in a form of a dance that adapts pre-existing dance moves and combines gymnastics, break dancing, yoga and martial arts moving to unparalleled DJ music – a performance as never before.

Proceeds from the Penang shows will be donated to D’Home Mental Health Association, a charitable organization that provides support, guidance and education to family members and care-givers of the mentally ill. Click here for more information on the shows.

Charity, entertainment, and  Mac. Being a Mac owner is always rewarding.
