Who buys this? Gucci bag or a BMW…

Gucci bag, originally priced as a very nice brand new car, now on a super sale in the amount of a brand new small car… Makes me wonder…

The Magical Printer?

About two years ago, or maybe even a bit longer, I got myself an HP LaserJet 1020 printer for about $120 USD. I needed something that printed documents “fast” (compared to the ink jets) and something that would last a bit longer than the usual ink jet cartridge. The solution was to find a laser printer which would not burn a hole in my pocket like almost everything else I get.

Little did I know that 2 or more years after I purchased it I will still be running on the original toner!!! I use this printer all the time, have printed thousands of pages on it - and it still keeps on printing. I really have no idea what’s going on but I’m loving it, and furthermore, I am dubbing it - The Magical Printer! Read more

New MacBook Pro Vista Rating = 1.0 ???

Just did a blasphamous act of installing Windows Vista on my new MacBook Pro 2.53GHz model.
Everything performs just fine (not as inĀ Freaked out, Insecure, Neurotic and Emotional) but Excellent, really, however, when I tried to access the system performance rating I got a rating of 1 .

Now, this is simply impossible, especially since when booting in Vista the system automatically uses the faster Nvidia 9600M GT card with 512MB RAM. This baby should fly, rite? While it certainly does, Vista does not wish to give it a passing grade

If the graphics performance was accessed correctly, I would guess the whole system score would be at least 5, if not a bit higher. It certainly feels that the machine really flies, and I’d know: my other machine is liquid cooled 4GHz Core 2 Duo based on Nvidia 790i running 64bit Vista with 4GB of RAM and VelociRaptor drives.

Check out the screenshot for the system rating. Everything other than graphics shows up not too shabby.

Stay tuned for a in-depth review on how Vista runs on new MacBook Pros. Sincerely - I love it

Itchy…

Read somewhere today while surfing the net, found it to be quite true:

“Who goes to bed with an itchy butt wakes up with a stinky finger”.

Ha ha ha!!!
