My 34th Birthday Venture

A full day of work driving around islandwide doing servicing. I do hate people not showing signals and doing zigzag driving. I wonder what happens if someone shows them what they have done. A shame to the traffic discipline. Perhaps different culture embedded in that require road police to control.

Recent movies are indeed a shame. Like Chow's CJ7 (more like a kid's exaggeration) and Jumper (too over loaded effects makes it unrelated). Much too disappointing paying for tickets in cinemas. I would prefer supporting "friendly" downloads. At the least getting those clear types Avis or RMVBs. Even better will be MKVs blueray formats.

The pic on the left looks humorous so I decided to give it a shot for review. I have seen the original "300" movie in Australia Rockhampton while reservist mode on open air projection show. A pity for the ending. A fierce movie I had to admit.


Meet the Spartans will be likely to make a laugh in the story. Interesting indeed.





I was very tempted to order the above Asus EEPC 7" miniature unit from the states. Converted to Sing dollars the price inclusive freight is unbeatable. It is a shock-proof solid state drive disk of 4GB to 8GB capacity preloaded with Linux operating system. With 512MB memory, wireless 802.11g and modem, it proves a valuable tool in terms of weight for any traveller.

Imagine inserting a GPRS PC Card for internet, Vodaphone M1 or Starhub 3G module. The retailing price is S$ 550.00ea. The highest solid state at the moment is 8GB. I have loaded Windows XP onto the unit for the client during the test. Although the speed is slightly more than the grade of a Celeron, it is definitely not for high end demanding 3D games.

I received news that the R&D are in progress for a larger screen model. Of course the price will be adjusted too.
