Being Alive

Yeah, after a long while, I have got back to my feet, barely since the past few weeks have been very much eventful for me from the move North to South, bits and bobs, accidents alike and the works, things have been a whirl of events.

First off, I am no longer with Aductions as their street team.Due to changes in the way things goes, they feel that Malaysia can no longer support their ideals for Aductions Direct as supposed to them having a direct approach platform: Aductions Online.

Next up is that I’m still in Damansara, staying put for the next few months, or at the very least till April 2008, and well,I’ll be making other means to get things done, and get involved in other ventures, the sort.

There was network security issues that plagued the server.So I will be installing other security modules for the sort.The CRM system will be up and running as soon as I think it’s ready, somesort or rather.

About RATree Intra Holdings, I’m still a part of them, though I may not play a very active part in it.

Anyway, talking of which, I am growing more fond of APPLE Macintosh than ever before as I’ve had my run of bad luck with Windows XP Service Pack 2 recently. Yes, I thought that I could recover my system with SP3 from SP2 which is cluttered and boy was I WRONG. Now that I’ve had my iPod VIDEO 80GB Generation 1 to my own, I’m just plain happy with that little beast, and well, from my experience, MAC don’t normally give you issues unless it’s hardware failure and there U’ll see a sad MAC upon boot up.As fool proof as the ATARI AMIGA.

Yeah, talk about being retro, I’ve had my share of LISA, G1,G2,G3,G4, Power PC (by IBM Motorola), and the cute little 9 inch boxes to their latest , the MacBook Air, the THINNEST one on the street.And to TIM and MING of Nuffnang, I won’t settle less than an MACBOOK AIR or iPHONE 16GB as a prize copared the the cheapskate of an iTouch.

Somethings you don’t know:
MACS uses PARITY MEMORY. 8 BITS=ONE BYTE,Right? Nope. With a Mac, it’s 9 bits per byte as the last bit is utilized for the PARITY CHECK. Thus why MACS are darn EXPENSIVE, and I’m not sure about now though. Like 10001001 (Value of 137), the Parity is 1 as it’s ODD number of 1’s. (if my Data Communications and Algorithms are correct, if not..it’s back to Nanyang for me for DC101)

Mac RAM can be used in PC as PC don’t use parity. Parity check is utilized using a special chip. But PC RAM is unusable in a MAC. Or I may got my facts muggled up (between PC and MACs, so guys correct me)

Anyway, the new OSX is a cheat as it’s LINUX based and now MACs can run WINDOWS.
DURGH!

Still, I love my MAC.Despite the lack of accessories and the sort.
