dell called me this morning. the person didn’t seem keen on talking about the refund, and instead talked abt the issues i’m having with the monitor. well, i told her the truth saying that the backlight issue seems to have diminished a bit and she was eager to close the ticket but i didn’t…

been a while hasn’t it? just haven’t found the time to plonk myself in front of my website and start writing. in fact, i have to leave for dinner with my dad in about 15 mins, so i’ll have to make this a quickie. so… where did i left off… ah yes, the weekend…

to crucial, a set of sticks that don’t carry forward the 1’s, to dell, an old revision of a monitor that’s supposed to be better, to maxtor/seagate, a drive that can’t find it’s things in time. will be passing my ram back to dinster when i meet him to pick up a new cpu…

found out before dinner that it’s my ram that has been causing so much problems with system stability. not surprising, but i was hoping that it wouldn’t turn out as expected. what was supposed to make my overclocked system stable turns out to be the culprit. harapkan pagar, pagar makan padi is the malay…

sigh.. all it takes is one phone call to ruin a noon nap. merv and az were trying to get me out of office to play mahjong. but i shouldn’t give in to temptation each time. besides, it’s a little wasteful to take half day off now considering i have only another 2 1/4…

getting a new monitor, no matter what it is, is definitely worth every cent. especially if it’s big, wide, doesn’t emit radiation, and doesn’t strain your eyes. 🙂 only problems now are the nagging, and not being able to move the mouse cursor across the screen in a single wrist motion. will post some…

doh, just realised all WoW realms are down for weekly maintenance. 🙁 taking a break sure is nice. will still be on leave till tomorrow. hope i don’t forget how to work 😀 by the way, merry christmas, and a happy new year to all! 😀 was planning to to go town today, but…

forgive me god, for i have splurged. i have spent my $ away. 3.5k on a wider view, 1k on some computer brain, and 170 on a bondage to virtuality. forgive me god, for i have paid. donated some part of my life away. 31 hours, this week alone, exploring worlds on the computer…
