Micro 2000, one of the long-time Apple authorised service centres and certainly one of the best if not the best, is apparently moving out of their long time location at BMW Performance Centre at Alexandra. They are now at Sunshine Plaza, and will apparently open other branches elsewhere in the Republic. Will update with more info and the official address soon.
Usually I like to recommend my friends to go directly to iShop for servicing, due to the general dislike for the other Apple authorised reseller in Orchard, but ever since the other shop outsourced the servicing to Diversitec/Sapura, word has it that the service has improved.
However, since Micro 2000, easily my first choice for servicing, is now at Sunshine Plaza, there is no reason for anyone to go to either iShop or Epicentre to do your servicing. Just pop down to Dhoby Ghaut!
Edit: As noted by _dren_, Micro2000’s main office is also moving out from Alexandra Road and shifting to Joo Seng Road.
Just a quick update on the Singtel iPhone news we got several weeks earlier. According to sources, the announcement/news might have been released to the media by a certain someone from Club21’s iShop, and might not be that accurate after all.
So is the iPhone coming in September or not?
We hope so. Will report back again when I have more news. And yes, technically speaking the hiatus is still on.
The Apple Core has a interview of the creator of the gold MacBooks from Computer Choppers. Will be interesting for those who wants gold and chrome on all your Macs. Check it out here
Anyone has a nice collection of old Macs that you are still putting in use? Will love to do a write-up/video podcast about them. Interested parties sound off in the comments please. Singapore only. Hehz.
Photoshop sucks. Adobe sucks. Everyone gets a kick out of pirating Adobe software, just like how everyone does with each pirated copy of Microsoft software.
No 64-bit Photoshop for Mac till CS5? You know what, Adobe? You can keep your CS5 for yourself and your Microsoft bitches.
Photoshop will become irrelevant in 2 years. Die. Photoshop. Die Adobe. Die Lightroom. Die.
