Two months with the Apple Watch

When the watch was first announced to launch in only several countries that excluded Singapore, I was slightly upset but for the first time in many years, I did not feel an absolute need to get the Watch on launch day. I have owned a Pebble since when they were on Kickstarter, and thanks to […]

No more Siracusa OS X reviews

I started with the Mac later than most long timers of the Mac Community, with my first Mac being an iBook (the last one assembled in Taiwan) running Mac OS X 10.3 Panther, and I had earlier used Jaguar (10.2) in school. The first major Mac OS X I was really excited about with my […]

MI (Multimedia Integrated) Closes Down

Mac OS X Default Wallpaper Collection – 10.1 to 10.4 (Puma, Jaguar, Panther and Tiger)

Hell man, I hope I don’t get a cease and desist for this.

Here are all the default Aqua Blue and Aqua Graphite Mac OS X wallpapers from the […]

My thoughts on business analysts (and similar humans)?

Business analysts (and similar humans) are the most useless human beings alive. Their “expertise” is to be an expert at nothing, making brief and often factually incorrect analysis on companies. They make absolutely ZERO contribution to mankind, yet consume most of the limited resources. In other words, they are not just MORONS, they are also […]

Tech Review: The iBLEAH (or at least that’s what the owner calls it)

Let me make this clear – the object being reviewed is undoubtedly a SOLID PIECE OF CRAP. I am not even going to make excuses for it. From time to time I get to see seriously weird gadgets, and by that I mean stuff that were made so badly, without any effort or thought going […]

M1’s Prices and Launch Details for iPhone 4S in Singapore

Was really waiting for all carriers to come up with their prices before posting this, but I guess I can’t be bothered to wait for Starhub. M1 was the earliest with their prices, and these were released since last Friday. M1’s launch is a first come first served event at 12am at the usual Paragon […]

Thank you… for everything…
