Do we really know?

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I watched the movie Sicko over the weekend.Sicko was a classic Michael Moore movie revealing the truth about the American Health Care system. It simply shows how the people of America are suffering from a poor health care system and how the media has created a false impression over other countries.

Its pretty amazing, we all know that the Americans don’t like the French, the Cuban’s or anyone who tries to challenge them. In this movie, Michael Moore just went  to these countries and to see what the deal was in these countries. To his surprise, they were having wonderful lives, a superb health care system. They even have house calls and all for absolutely FREE!!

The highlight for me was when they discovered that the terrorist of 911 were in Guantano Bay and they had world class health care for FREE!! So they set off with a bunch of sick people to the detention centre to get some treatment but were not allowed in and ended up at Cuba their mortal enemy.

To their suprise they got free health care and superb care at the Cuban hospitals while medications they are used to paying with money from their life savings were as cheap as 5cents!

Its crazy isn’t it?! The lesson i learn was the media can feed as much information and has the capability to paint a picture which could just not be the truth!! Do your research, the internet is a great medium which promotes free press.You may be surprised that the people who were deemed enemies may be the nicest people around!

Keep a open mind on information you receive/read. The truth is only when you witness it yourself!

Notebook Mouse Panel

Friday, April 25th, 2008

When i replaced my desktop with a notebook one of the most annoying things that i had to live with was the mouse pad. Notebook gives one mobility to being able to use it anywhere which a desktop cant but being mobile means compromising certain bits ie the mouse.

Some notebooks come with the mouse stick(thats the blue stick that pops out right in the middle of the keyboard) and some both! I don’t like that even more! Nothing like using a proper mouse isn’t it? It gives the user superb control.

Thank god we can now get nice small mouse’s that fits the whole mobility bit :)

The Oscars go to Didier Drogba!

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

Christiano Ronaldo had the reputation of being a play actor,he used to fall off ever touch. I think he has come a long way in proving that he is a superb player who does not need that bit as part of his game. I was watching the Liverpool v Chelsea champions league semi finals and i hereby announce that Didier Drogba is now is a footballing wuss!

Everytime he finds himself in a goal scoring position and a defender is anywhere close, he falls over like a truck had hit him and stays there! The physio has got to come in and he will whisper “I’m acting, just pretend like you are treating me, then you can go” then a few minutes later..He gets up and walks away like nothing happened!

I dont understand why on earth some players use play acting as a big part of their game! Sickening!

Real stars never use cheap tactics like play acting in their games and Drogba….You just proved that your not that great after all!!

Vista Home For Everyone

Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008

MICROSOFT MALAYSIA is cutting the prices for its Windows Vista Home Basic and Home Premium editions, effective immediately.

While the software giant does not set a standard retail price for its products, users can expect to see reductions of 10% to 50%, depending on how they acquire the operating system.

Software piracy has been a major problem in this part of the world and this simple act of cutting price could potentially have lots more people choosing the original software over the pirated versions or known as the “Malaysian version” . Hopefully they extend this price cut to the whole suite of Microsoft products.

This would eventually cripple the pirated versions in the market and eventually set a original software mindset which then everyone can afford.

SP 1 is now available Here or you can call  1-800-88-6295 and get a DVD sent to you. Only if you have the original software installed of course :)

Streamyx Crap

Monday, April 21st, 2008

Is it just me or streamyx horribly slow for a while now?? Im having trouble surfing the net and getting things done at the speed im used too.I’m paying for a 1mb unlimited package but sure doesn’t feel like I’m getting anything close to that!! It makes blogging a heartache and browsing the net a nightmare!!

Are there any decent alternatives in the market? Anyone heard of U-Mobile? Its seem to be mushrooming out and I’m not sure of the speeds and performances?! Any thoughts?

Apparently is a true story about a MIT student who needed money to pay his tuition fees found a brilliant way to beat the casino .

Watch the trailer below.

The storyline?
