Yes, so it’s been released for over a year now. But I’d only managed to get around to trying out Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy this weekend thanks to the Youth Day holiday. Thought it appropriate to “celebrate” Youth Day by doing a little of what I used to do lots of as a youth i.e. gaming. 😀 Only tried for a few hours, but it’s been really fun so far. I’m really no good with action games (except…
Did you know that it was possible for a 1.8GHz-class PC to boot into WindowsXP, load the desktop screen…and load…and load…and load…and load till it suddenly ran out of Virtual Memory? Well, I didn’t know either: at least till I took a look at the PC my cousin sent in for me to take a look at. Turns out that his sons installed just about every adware available, probably without knowing what they really were. It didn’t help that the…
No, there really is nothing wrong with the spelling 🙂 I’m just really excited that my PowerMac processor upgrade card from Gigadesigns is finally here! Ordered from Other World Computing and shipped via FedEx, my package finally got here after about 5 days (would have been faster if I hadn’t ordered just before the weekend). So what does the package look like? Well, here are some pics! So how does the new G4 1.4GHz card compare to my puny old…
One advantage that Apple touts of its .Mac service is the ability to synchronise the bookmarks of its Safari web browser between several Macs.

I’ve been using Mozilla Firefox for a while, and in my opinion it is the BEST web browser right now. I’m not just talking about surfing speed though: there’re also other things you don’t get in Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or Apple’s Safari, like user-installable themes, extensions (like plug-ins that enhance the functionality of the web browser) and control over pop-up ads.

I was looking around the big Sony shop at Bugis Junction, and what should I see but the much sought after white coloured Sony EX71SL in-ear headphones (at least I THINK they are anyway, since it’s been so damn hard to for me to find them)! Selling at S$72 after a “10% discount” (who’re they kidding? the online pricing is S$72!!), there was only..gasp!…one box left! So guess what I did? Yes faithful readers, I bought the very last one..ahahaha…
