Finally, finally! got my PC up and running at full capabilities, that is of course with an absence of 1-2 days having to deal with unsupported so far my experience with Vista had been a bitter-sweet one, but I guess that is something I will have to live with as Windows XP, though faster have it's software limitations as...
Part II of pimp my PC was today, in other words, yes was around Simlim got a quick swipe at few more items to make my PC complete. That means picking up a western digital 1TB harddisk ($322) together with Vista Home Premium ($129). Amazingly alot of stores are still selling vista at like $167 to $179 and the...
Got some cool stuff today, or like those peeps in hardware zone will call "a Hoot", will let ya in for in with this teaser on the left to figure out the parts.
I wanted to challenge myself in building a sub 10k 3Dmark2006 PC around $1000 without overclocking, the budget itself is a challenge I gave myself too, but...
This mission is fairly straightforward though largely requested, so I won't be going into too much detail on it as my previous most sought after walkthrough, The doctor vanishes due to the challenge of this mission being set on timely executions and not much on survival. So here goes, also played on hard difficulty.
You start off with your base...
Little background of the upcoming processors and socket, as shown on the picture on the left, the larger LGA1160/1366 chip is based on the Nehalem platform spotting between one and eight cores running on the Intel LGA1160 and LGA1366 sockets. Noteworthy is the return of Hyperthreading in this processors- capable of handling two independent software threads per core and...
There had been lots of word going on lately on a particular C&C mission being rather difficult to complete, namely the 7th NOD mission known as "The doctor vanishes". I've completed the mission myself, so why not share my own experience and how I went about it in this mission walkthrough. I've completed the mission on hard difficulty so...
Something funny about ipods and questions about their unreliability. Say if you "broke" your iPhone, "get a new one" said jobs. So that will very much go in line as the iPod as well as shown in this video. I think the thing which sets the stereotypical iPod and PC user is the difference in the buy and throw...
Got my birthday item today, it's collected by Sheena on her way home today. My copy was pre-ordered at TecDrome and she was around the area to collect it for me today. Then she told me of her rather interesting experience of how the shop uncle who simply packed the box for her and settled payment without even asking...
Ok folks, here are some official words from Nokia Singapore with regards to the Nokia N96.
Quote from Nokia Singapore:

Please...

On the internet, I guess everyone is no stranger to spam and I believe neither is any of us is a fan of one. Spam always plague webmasters and our websites, finding difficult to balance the exposure of our emails so that we can still reach out to our intended audiences, but not extent of spam bots reaching us...
Well just when you thought EA (aka old ruins of westwood) is totally done calling 2008 with the FPS "Tiberium" looks like they have something else up their sleeves with a new sequel to the largely popular Red Alert series. We've seen C&C 3 adn Kane coming up previously, so we can technically and most expectedly see Red Alert...
Had been rather busy the last few days rushing up post final year reports and some other post Spinnovex administration matters. Before you know it, its the last day of the semester with the exam weeks starting next. Good thing I do not have any modules to take this semester! Good luck to those taking (and repeating) modules this...
Dang I am really hading it with software activation. Did a reformat of my computer and installed my Norton internet security 2007 only to be told that I can't activate my software as I had exceeded my allowed number of activation for my CD key? WHAT?
Called them up on their 1800 toll free number which kept me like...
Nope it's not Red Alert 3, but it's still form the good 'ol command and conquer universe. It's EA Games "Tiberium" first person shooter coming up autumn next year. Though obviously uncreative name "Tiberium", I guess the peeps at EA mus tbe thinking, "Hey! since we should all know about it's toxic nature which not only kills and mutates...
You won't totally experience the N82 after using it for a few days and putting it through the "real world" tasks. Overall my reactions are mixed, but I felt that Nokia could have made the N82 a better phone.
The main thing which shines in this phone is the camera, throughout this blog posts are some photos taken with...
Got the N82 today. Nicknamed, "the imaging king", the Nokia N82 is a Candybar form factor phone which is the latest crown jewel in line of the N series line of phones. On paper the specifications seem impressive, feature-wise, the N82 is in not much in any very much different from the flagship N95 8GB and very very way...
Apparently from this leaked picture from Nokia, it seems that the successor to the N93i wouldn't be too far off in the 2008, spotting a similar form factor with the camera mounted perpendicularly to the phone face. The N96? Figures.
This sideway mounting position is typical for phones which feature optical zooms (yup no pixelated digital zooms for this baby)...
Had been testing the camera out lately, and I am say I am quite impressed by the N95 8GB camera, the starting up takes a modest 3 seconds which is so much better than my previous HP rw6828 which can easily take 10 seconds. While the HP rw6828 takes 2 minutes to save a 2 Megapixel image, the N95...
After using my N95 8GB for a few days, finally got the hang of numeric pad SMSing again, it had been almost 5 over years since I used a phone with a proper numeric keypad... no more funny side keypads with my old SX1 or having the need to use a stylus with my HP rw6828. I can...
