So, as I aluded to in my previous post, I am the proud owner of a recently purchased, shiny aluminum iMac.
Sidenote: I also got off my ass, and finished replacing Saber with Mahoro - a 3GHz Core 2 Duo system, with a new P35 chipset board and an 8800 Ultra which sure enough, it runs […]

So I just got my ass a shiny new Aluminium iMac in time for the great Macfag event that comes once every few years known as the OS upgrade time. While everyone’s writing about the fancy pants Time Machine, or the multiple desktops Spaces offers, or the fact that the Finder kinda sucks a little […]

I haven’t really mentioned this on the site, except the update on the hardware page, but a little over two months ago, I bought myself a notebook. A Dell Inspiron 640m, to be exact (which you may know in the US as the Inspiron E1405). I primarily got it as a portable media & Windows-based […]

Oh hay.. this site’s still here. I guess I’d better actually post some crap in the unlikely event I actually receive viewers.
So.. what’s been going on since the past two months I’ve posted here? Well, the Conroe came, saw, and kicked some ass. ePenis forum posters rejoiced as they tweaked like mad to get the […]

So.. by my count so far, this makes it the third CPU upgrade story since the Mac mini came out.. or fourth if you count the mysterious guy on some mailing list, who claims he has a Merom and it works flawlessly in the mini.
I’d just like to first state that doing this is a […]

…or I’d update the site as promised all about the wonderful things I’ve waste^H^H^H^H^Hspent money on, lately.. but I’ve been too busy sleeping and watching magical girl anime.
I really do promise to tell you all about the latest addition in my family of binary digit calculators, but I figured that as she is right now, […]

So I’ve gone and commited myself to yet another expensive tech path. I’ll be writing another post in a few days about it once it arrives, but yes.. I’ve thrown $1,299 AUD away on a brand new shiny Mac mini Core Duo.
I’ve probably been quoted in the past on how crappy a deal the Intel […]

So, right after I commit myself to yet another stupid purchase decision, along comes what I’ve always wanted since the ‘05 WWDC announcement - the ability to run Windows XP and Mac OS X on the one computer.
Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you would have heard about the Windows XP on Mac contest, […]

So normally, I’d be waiting until the second quarter to make purchasing plans for my next system. Admittedly, I did want to buy myself a small Intel based Mac system now, and save until August for a Conroe based system.. but several factors have changed this.
I could blame it on the fact that despite the […]
