My first impression as I walk into the Apple iStore is always, why are these people doing their emails on the laptops spread across half a dozen tables? Surely everyone has a PC nowadays or certainly access to a local internet cafĂ©. Still they come to play on the machines . Smart really, if all this random use doesn't break them, then they pass another test. So I float up the funky plastic staircase to another row of tables lined with more technology than NASA would have required, putting a man on the moon. It's funky, it's nerdy, it's engrossing, engaging and most of all it's cool, because Steve Jobs says so. Who wouldn't believe a man who has changed our technology habits and behaviours so dramatically? So here it gets interesting , as I decide to make a purchase. I catch the i (get it) of the nearest iPerson who hang around in iPosses or iG...

 Calibration is a process through which a certain instrument is brought to a standard previously given. The process of calibrating something refers to the act of checking the accuracy of a measuring instrument which is, therefore, adjusted by being compared to the standard. The idea is that the measurement instrument needs to match a standard and to meet all the requirements imposed by it. An eloquent example for the aforementioned process is when we try to calibrate a " thermometer " which needs to function according to some given standards in order to be able to measure properly the temperature.
