Dear blog,

while Desktop computer sales have been sagging, and while Laptop sales have taken a dip, there’s something that has been exploding: and that is, Netbook sales (often referred to as mini-laptops).

 
the Asus Eee PC.

yep, these tiny wonder-machines have been exploding sales in the CE electronics market, and many businesses just want to jump unto this bandwagon.

well, guess who decided to jump into this bandwagon.
...
wait for it...

NOKIA!
yes lol, Nokia actually made a Netbook!

and no, they didn’t just to a cut-and-paste job. Really, Yikes. This one’s looking really good. Seriously, why couldn’t Nokia make a handphone this good?

how did they manage to stuff a 12-hour battery into that? Oh man, I want this arrived in Singapore so bad. Nokia might have just made the best damn Netbook ever to grace the market!

and it syncs with your Nokia handphone seamlessly, right out-of-the-box! A bonus, for Nokia phone owners. OHohoh, and it has GPS, and here’s the best part: It runs Windows7! Fantastic decision by Nokia, I wouldn’t want WindowsXP running on that.

Gah!

Singapore’s CE electronics market is fail. All that’s ever sold here is stupid mainstream stuff. Singapore’s always all about the mainstream. Pretty boring.

here’s something else I want in Singapore so bad:

you won’t believe it, but that’s Microsoft’s MP3 player. It’s basically Microsoft’s answer to the ipod touch, and it’s called the Microsoft Zune.

And this one’s the Zune HD. IT PWNS THE FUCKING IPOD TOUCH. Period. You should YouTube this ZuneHD, and see it in action. This is one hell of a amazing piece of gadget, and i’d take this over the stupid (and rather rotten) iPod Touch anytime.

Just wait till Microsoft sets up a store here in Singapore. Just wait. Screw all those Apple stores, i’m sick and tired of Apple selling their products as if they were some kind of cosmetic line. It disgusts me.

school today was alright!

well, we did it. The COB presentation’s done! My worst fears, they’re over! I thought we would have to crash the project, but nope. It was complete, and it was in full form. The 30 PowerPoint slides, they were all up, done, and polished.

The presentation went really smooth, too! Shafiqa’s surprisingly quite a competent presenter!

well, bloggie, nothing much to say. Everything went well, and everything that needed saying – has been said. Basically, now, I’d like to pronounce this project:

Pro’d.

Our entire group got A- for the presentation! Awesome, awesome, awesome!! Good job, everyone! Shafiqa, Siti, Hazirah, all of us, job well done! <3 you guys

I mean, yeah. We did go through quite some hard and rough times and other shit, but look, we pulled through! And hell, I wouldn’t mind going through it all over again, all in a heartbeat.

Yes, bloggie. I am pretty happy today. Well, more than anything, i’m just relived, and just so glad. This presentation was 50% of the COB’s total marks dude. Jonathan is right, the “Pro’d” feeling IS a nice feeling, especially in a presentation.

In other news, Razmeer and I had a really long chat in class today. I have to say, Razmeer is one guy with really strong moral values. Could do with more people like him, really.

bloggie,
today was an AWESOME day.

I look forward to a better tomorrow! Time to get started on my POA homework, though.

Word Out,
Ramesh
