Aayush Arya

At the tender age of nineteen, Aayush Arya is the youngest and newest kid on the block. After having used Windows for about five years and trying several Linux distros, he finally bought a 17-inch MacBook Pro a year and a half ago and has now become a convert. Known as the “tech genius” among his family and friends, he’s always had a passion for technology, and particularly software. He is currently enrolled in a BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) course in his country, India, and hopes to successfully graduate one day.

While sitting in a park and mulling over the mysteries of life one fine Sunday morning, it occurred to him that he could totally start writing about Apple. So, here he is, working as a weekly columnist on Apple Matters and a daily blogger on MacUser. He hopes to bring a new perspective to his posts, as he hails from one of the most “Mac deprived” nations in the world, and be a little informative and entertaining as he goes about doing what he does best.
