While my dearest buat lab. I was busy working on something and encounter this.

Working with a global comp. You get whacked by a website.

One fine sunset..

view from my hotel room..

An update maybe?

If some of you not so loyal reader has read from the previous post.. I’m building a PC from scratch… and too bad I just learn that I can’t put it in my tax relieve as it was bought part by part… sheet..

Nothing much on the pc.. just a normal desktop to replace my sister aging Acer laptop…

The stuff i put in is roughly as below:

Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0Ghz
Gainward HD4850 Golden Sample (that mean this card is factory overclocked)
Big Typhoon VX CPU cooler
Centurion 590 casing (too bad CM690 out of stock)
Corsair XMS2 2 x 1GB (window XP okay…)
Cooler Master Real Power Pro 550W psu……….. (should have gotten the 650w)
WD 320 GB
ASUS P5Q Pro
LG DVD-RW
Samsung 2233SW 21.5 inch yooo…
el cheapo Logitech keyboard and Razer DeathAdder mouse..

Ada LED yoooo…

The system is running Win XP. Feel nice and fast… Have you ever have the feeling when you finally get something that you really want? Like getting that nice XC bike?

Look at that big CPU fan+heatsink!

Window 7 is the next OS… or maybe someday.. this system will be turned into a Hackintosh…… we’ll see how it progress..

Installed few game courtesy of a friend.. Dont you love it when you can play at full settings?

and also not to mention fragging with teh best mouse….. Razer DeathAdder courtesy of the GF… Punya syiok kau tau.. timbak2 org jahat semua cun kena kapala…

total damage to the wallet?

RM3200+

Most of the parts was bought from forum.lowyat.net except for MoBo, DVD-RW and HDD.

and not to mention the cable management..

Bonus section… I’ve been all over the place.. and this one is in Kapit… in the middle of no where.. along a logging routes…

Not literally from trash lah, but almost from trash la since our shop here in Kuching is selling some parts at a trash price.

Currently ordered a few parts from online reseller. Waiting for them to be shipped to me.. This system will be a dirt cheap Core 2 Duo system. Will be my first 100% self paid PC with 100% self sourced parts. Have been planing since January you know.

kita mesti sabar.. hehe

It hit me last week. Was driving back from Sarikei with Mell. Then.. the radio reception go kapuut.. and silent… search2 the radio… found some iban station. start listening… then go dizzy…

switch to CD, only one cd available.. Linkin Park Meteora -_-”

switch to AUX and connect N78, only 10 songs available.. not going to loop it again2 and again right?

the whole journey layan Radio Muzik -_-” Rock Selamba……….

Mell maybe mau muntah already…

Went to office on Wednesday, only me and the sales assistant rajin kerja.. she have to come, me just want to show my face. hehehe… nanti bos marah tak datang..

Fire up google and type Shuffle… read and read and read… shit.. this shuffle suck. (eat that fanboys and Raphael) A screen-less mp3 player cost more than a cheap-with-screen player. No!

Next target is Creative Zen Stone Plus. A product from our friendly neighbors the Singapura. Read a few reviews.. so far so good… The latest one.. the Plus come with this canggeh OLED screen showing you the song playing. Then read another review in a forum and a forumer point out that the OLED screen doesn’t show the artist name, only the song name. and… and it doesn’t allow you to browse your music while you listening. Too bad… and one bastard forumer (in good way) suggested this little known Sansa Clip.

Then I go oooo… Sansa Clip.. and saw this piece of plastic.

That looks nice..

Search for review… got a good feedback from few reviewers. For a small capacity mp3 player. this piece of plastic pwned the Shuffle and Zen Stone. (For me) It come in 1,2 and 4GB. and maybe 8GB soon?

It have all the stuff I want, relatively cheap price for a mp3 player, good navigation through the menu and nice design to boot.. even though it looks very ermm.. plastic. oh.. it has a clip also..so you can clip it to something..

Will be a nice addition to my traveling ritual. Long boat ride should be less ermm… painful?

Getting one soon… In Kuching, Wisma Saberkas is a joke, went there just now and found some china brand Ipod wanabe mp4 player. >_>

anyone know where I can get Sansa Clip in Kuching?

so next option would be through online retailers. Next week maybe? Yes?

Will be getting the 2GB version, 450 mp3 songs? enough? and… 2000 wma songs. -_-”

pair it with my 12 years old sony earphone, should be fine..

till then… until I talk rubbish again next time. I know this blog is a little bit silent since like 3 years ago. The community is not like before…
