Well the BOSS bought me a new sweet ACER LCD Monitor, that baby is running nicely at 1280 x 1024 (its 17'). Its making me want an LCD monitor for my home, since I can clearly see the amount of desk real-estate that I've saved up.

Compared to say, the old work area below:

Houses

Greetings,

So yeah, house-hunting really sucks. After a couple of months, its down to this:
A. Buy a house that's RM260K - RM310K in an area thats FAR out of the city.
B. Buy a second-hand (used) house for like RM210K - RM250K (which is in and around the city) but then spend another RM40K - RM80K for renovations

Bah

Shameless plug
Thursday, August 03, 2006 | Author: Dav
Greetings,

Well its time for a shameless plug of the office webpage. Pretty neat, even if a bit borrowed template to fill the blanks.

Finally got the damn video streaming with Mediaplayer control buttons working too (lower right of the image)


Video with controls!

Enjoy!

Every now and then, Bash puts up a quote that I think should get into the quote of the year area (if there isn't one, there should be)

Note: Might be a tad offensive :D

Who comes up with this stuff?
Friday, May 05, 2006 | Author: Dav
I was browsing about my Yahoo! email when I noticed a table area that had 'questions asked by people'. I've never noticed this feature before.

I clicked the question that sounded like something I would ask.

Enjoy!

Picked up the Creative Muvo Slim yesterday, been having a blast with it. The free RM60 headphones might have something to do with it.

Mail Beta
Friday, April 14, 2006 | Author: Dav
Greetings,

It looks like everyone's jumping on the "Web Beta" service idea these days, with Gmail starting it off and Hotmail with their 'Outlook' like layout.

Yahoo! has come out with a nifty version of Beta Mail, and the screeny below shows you how it looks like. I've used Yahoo! for ages, and I'm quite happy with the generous amount of email space they provide. The spam does get to be a bother, but thats to expect with an email account thats been in use for as long as I have.

Plodding along...
Wednesday, April 12, 2006 | Author: Dav
Greetings,

Well work's slowed down for a few days, and it lets me clean up the stuff thats loaded on the office laptop.

Its got to a stage at the pc where I lift my mug and find that there's no more tea in it, then 2 minutes later I lift my mug again and there's STILL no tea in it.
'orible! Mossy says I need an underling.

Then I open up the run consol and type in 'calc' when I wanted to pull up the command screen (cmd). Cursing, I close the calcultor, then type in 'calc' AGAIN!.

Must... go on a holiday

Teh suck
Thursday, April 06, 2006 | Author: Dav
Greetings,

Well its been one hell of a month, and yesterday was pretty rough. A quick breakdown of what went on:

7.30am Azzy comes over because she has a warning light on her car dash
8.15am Service center opens, I talk to the manager and highlight the issues, and tell him it could be the throttle body. He hooks it up to the computer and does a systems check
9.30am All good, head off to work
3.20pm Azzy calls, says mom has emergency appendix op
7.40pm Azzy's car dies in traffic. Throttle BODY!
8.10pm I get there. So does AAM
9.00pm They do what they can. The problem is the car starts up fine, and they cant seem to figure out what was wrong with it when it stalled
9.20pm Drop by to see her mom in the hospital
9.40pm Dinner
11.00pm Hoem

Long long long day
