ok thanks....Originally posted by the Bear:go to Sim Lim, i got mine for $14 -
Hmm...Originally posted by the Bear:uhhh.. if you want to run Vista.. guess what?
Vista ran fastest on... a MacBook Pro
well, i use mine to do my pics..
they just don't know how to use their Macs
btw.. if you want to buy a computer to play games, a Dell is the last thing you want.. there are others you can get onsite for..
and more, it's better if you learn the little things.. most of the time, hardware doesn't break down and there is no warranty for software problems...
Look at this Dell XPS 720 :

Thing is, I become addicted to being online and I kinda don't want it to happen again.
As it is, I'm now addicted to Foxtel. My days off are truly unproductive. And sadly, I'm very very happy to stay home most of the time and see absolutely no need to go out (and end up spending tons)! Plus, I haven't exactly met anyone here I really want to go out with. 
I just 'lost' two Filipino friends who are my colleagues. We had a huge fight because I was going out with Libby on Sunday, then Roberto wanted to join in, which was ok by me BUT they started to yak in Tagalog and I asked him to please stop because it excludes me totally. He then defiantly said that it's nice to speak in one's own language. Excuse me, don't I know that?!
But I said I won't speak in Mandarin to Ying if he goes out with me cause it's just being insensitive and rude and then Roberto, being a gay , became 'emotional' and started to argue like a crazy woman. So in the end, Libby had to stop us and then I went out with Libby, without Roberto, and he sashayed off in some girly tantrum. 
So yeah... interestingly, a Tarot Card Reader predicted that I'll lose 2-3 friends within the week plus before that, I had a strong inkling that something will happen between us. I'm becoming psychic!
PS. HOW can you be friends with a group of people who insist on speaking in their language when you're in their midst?!
Oh dear!!How come these people so liddat one? -

My nokia was fine except can't make calls, now using SO's old samsung which is much worse...can't do so many things, and some buttons dieded. -

bought and have been using a Dell XPS M1330 for a couple of months.Originally posted by Rhonda:I still don't know how well the Mac can do the duo thing. All I know is two colleagues of mine who did buy Mac's were discussing about their Mac experience in the tearoom and they both said that unless you're doing heavy graphics / photography stuff, it's pointless and they both regretted, get this, REGRETTED, buying their Mac's. 
So there!
Since service here basically SUCKS, I'm still going for Dell cause of the on-site next business day service. No way am I going to pay through my teeth and bleed through my nose for PC servicing and neither do I relish the thought of lugging my PC on public transport here and then walking for miles like the Hebrews did to cross some desert just to get to the servicing shop. Don't forget, I don't drive, don't own a car, and don't have friends who are free enough to help me in this manner.
if you are getting an inspiron, then probably a very bad idea.
the only thing that really really sucks about the m1330 (well more of vista) is that when you try overwriting numerous files, the damn OS will scan every single damn file and it could take up to 10 mins for what XP can do in 5 secs.
pisses me off when i'm updating my mods for WoW.
if you are getting a mac, for the love of god dont load vista onto it. OS X is a superior OS in every sense, and the only reason for loading vista is for game compatibility. -

more the dell choice...
i was deciding on macbook pro for a very very long time but the thing that sold me the m1330 was the 3 year onsite warranty.
warranty issues are a real bitch for apple in singapore. i always read that 3rd party service centres here have no spare parts and have to wait 3 weeks to get it. -
They've become 'bolder' at it too since a new Filipino colleagues joined their fold.Originally posted by av98m: Oh dear!!How come these people so liddat one? Stregth in numbers, mah! Some of the Aussie colleagues have complained about their habit too.
I've also learnt to discount everything they said because they are very sociable people, but unfortunately, not very good with their facts. Never take what they say seriously because their facts all get jumbled up and the next day, they'll kinda forget what they've told you and claimed that that wasn't what they said.
Maybe, they get too high on company (as in having people around them)?! -
lotusfairy, quick run....
