Apples everywhere!

This is what my desk has become.

Holy smoke… 3 iPhone 4? 1 for my wife and 1 for my son.

I’ve become Steve Job’s slave within a matter of months… let me count the number of Apples lying in my house right now.

There’s always a first time!

Since I started buying Apple stuff the past few months, I’ve been completely satisfied with them… until now.

After having my iPhone 4 for 2 weeks, I hit a snag yesterday. I couldn’t transfer any damn photos or video out to my Macbook. I can’t really understand it. I’m using a Macbook connected to . . . → Read More: There’s always a first time!

iPhone 4!

It’s kinda embarrassing but I actually queued for it on launch day. Not going to say how long I actually stood in line, but it wasn’t as long as I expected ‘coz I went down in the wee hours. Damn I’m becoming an Apple fanboy.

The iPhone build quality is really amazing. It’s . . . → Read More: iPhone 4!

My last Macbook replacement!

Macbook Pro 15" and 17" side by side

Really! Actually this is more like a self-justification post to convince myself that it’s worth the money spent.

Some random updates over the weekend.

After getting my new Macbook Pro, I sold my Sager and my old Macbook Pro is reserved for a friend… I bought a Speck Satin black cover and a Apple Magic Mouse. Look ma, no buttons! Woot… The cover looks really cool and the mouse is really awesome . . . → Read More: Random updates

Macbook Pro 15

Ok, so here’s the summarized spec of my new toy. It’s the 5th generation late 2008/early 2009 unibody model that has the easily opened bottom panel so you can replace the HDD and battery really easily.

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo T9400 2.53GHz RAM: 4GB DDR3 1066GHz Graphics card: 9400M + 9600M GT . . . → Read More: Macbook Pro 15″ Unibody!

How much is your word worth?

Since I bought my Macbook Pro, I’ve been forcing myself to adapt to using OS X by packing up my Sager, and I realized that I wasn’t even being forced. In fact, I didn’t even missed Windows… so I think it was time to get a PROPER replacement! By the time I reached this . . . → Read More: How much is your word worth?

MacbookPro3,1 and Snow Leopard 64bit

When I just bought my Macbook Pro, one of the things I forgot to consider about was whether it can run the 64 bit kernel Snow Leopard. In fact, it never crossed my mind that… until yesterday.

I just did a random check to see if it is, but turns out it was running . . . → Read More: MacbookPro3,1 and Snow Leopard 64bit

Macbook Pro!

Took me a while to find a cheap and good one but I finally did. It’s not the newer generation unibody model, but it’s good enough. The specs are as follows:

15″ LCD 1440 x 900 2.4Ghz Intel Core2Duo GeForce 8600M GT 256MB VRAM 250GB HDD 5400RPM 4GB DDR2 DRAM
