Mar 12
This weekend, I bought lots of things. 12 inch laptop, Dlink gaming router, Dlink NAS, Seagate 320gb external hdd and a Antec NEO HE 430W power supply.
The power supply wasn’t supposed to be bought, but the fateful Sunday morning, the computer crashed and refused to startup. After some diagnosis, it turned out that my Antec Truepower 480W died. Supposed to have 3 yrs warranty. So it’s off to Corbell to get it replaced. Then it will become my spare PSU. shiok.
Vista Home Premium came with my laptop. The initialization of windows is painfully slow. Think it took more than an hour. But after that, vista is a breeze. But somehow I feel windows xp is still faster… just a little bit. Of course I started off by uninstalling norton… and quickly scanning for other weird programs that might bog down my system. I had a windows xp tablet edition at hand, just in case I want to switch back to windows xp. But I after reading the hassle in dual booting with vista, I decide to stick with vista for a while longer. Hopefully getting the 64bit version soon since my turion64 x2 can support 64bit. Batt life is less than satisfactory… prolly should find ways to turn off the tablet function when I don’t need it.
Well. it’s a happy weekend. HAHAHAHA just me and my toys.
