How do you set up a wireless network between a Brother MFC 885cw and a Mac?
The Brother 885cw uses a wireless system called 802.11b/g. Apple uses this system in the AirPort family of devices. Some Macs have AirPort built in. For those that do not you need to buy a compatible AirPort device, such as AirPort Extreme or AirPort Express, or an AirPort Card.
After installing the AirPort software, an icon will appear in the menubar that looks like a set of waves arcing up. Click on the icon to discover other AirPort or 802.11b/g devices within range. Select the device or network you wish to connect to. It is possible to set up your own network, and have other devices connect to that. You should select a secure level to bar unwanted users from accessing your network without permission.
Depending on the security level of the device or network, a connection can be established and the device or network will appear in the Finder. Depending on the type of device, it may appear as a disk drive or a folder. It may appear as a menu containing possible interactions.
The software for the Brother MFC 885cw must be installed prior to connection. Brother software has not been 'Mac Friendly' in the past. However, Brother is trying to improve support for Macs. Drivers are availble here:

Access to the printer should be possible through the Brother icon which appears in the top menu bar.
The printer should appear as one of the printers in the System Preferences 'Print and Fax.' Some preferences such as default printer and default page size can be set there. If the software installed a control panel, additional preferences can be set there.
Why does your Mac freeze in Sleep?
Try unplugging everything (except your power plug) from your computer if you have a laptop. If you have a desktop computer then unplug everything except your keyboard and mouse.
Some times a USB device will interfere with the USB bus and cause sleep problems.
If you have the oringinal keyboard and mouse that came with your computer then use those instead for troubleshooting.
If the problem goes away then plug in the USB devices one at a time. Do not use the USB hub untill you know each device works by themselves then use the USB hub to see if everything still works.
If it is a USB device that's the problem then try using another USB cord then check the power supply.
Some times in rare occations you can deselect the sleep mark in the Control Panel the recheck it and it may work again.

What is better about the Mac book Pro compared to the Mac book?
The newer MacBook and MacBook Pro models have some distinct differences. The MacBook is a white plastic shell with a smaller screen. All MacBook Pro models are now made of a solid, unibody enclosure.
Some advantages/disadvantages:
*The MacBook tends to get very hot after about an hour of use. The MacBook Pro models do not have this problem.
*The MacBook Pro models have a better screen for displaying graphics, and have a higher powered graphics chip.
*The MacBook Pro 13" and 15" models include a SD Card slot. The MacBook and MacBook Pro 17" models do not.
*The MacBook has a removable battery. All batteries on the MacBook Pro models can not be removed.
*The MacBook only comes with a 2.13GHz processor. The standard configuration of the lowest costing MacBook Pro has a 2.23GHz processor.
*All MacBook Pro batteries can have a charge for up to 7 hours (excluding the MacBook Pro 17", which can have an 8 hour charge). The battery on the MacBook can have just a 5 hour charge.
The MacBook Pro family has some obvious advantages. If you're looking for a lower-costing computer that can run Mac OSX, the MacBook would be your best choice. If you need something reliable that can do any task, go for it and upgrade to a MacBook Pro.
What three things make a computer powerful?
There are more than three, but I'll try and pick the three most important - assuming cost is irrelevant.
A good CPU
SSDs in RAID 0 configuration (the more the better up to certain point)
Eliminate ALL bottlenecks (generally addressed with a good motherboard)
Of course, as I said there are more than three, and if you're planning on some hardcore gaming, a good GPU is definitely up there, but those three are what's going to give you all round performance (along with some RAM, of course :P)
