Critical Thoughts

Recently I had to send my desktop to the shop due it being short-circuited due to a lightning strike. The technician told me that the graphics card and RAM had to be replaced. Calculating the costs, it would amount to around RM1100+ to replace the parts because they were really old (DDR and AGP graphics port). Rather than wasting money doing so, I decided that it would be better to upgrade the system to a more powerful one and and bring it to present times. So the motherboard, processor, casing too were replaced, and the results were….

It does not look bad either. Forked out RM1400+ for this, and its all thanks to the money I earned from problogging and my online company.

I am astounded…truly astounded, that this person can actually get away with saying something like this:

Mr Zainuddin [Maidin, Malaysian Information Minister] insisted that while the younger generation are tech-savvy, they tend to believe newspaper reports over comments made on the Internet, China Press reported.

He added that the Internet is used mainly to book budget airline tickets or to get entertainment news.

What??!! I earn my RM2K+ a month from doing this?
