Netbook: To Buy Or Not To Buy

Three of my guy friends bought netbooks over the past few months ranging from RM1200 – RM4000. I had the opportunity to fiddle with them; one Acer Aspire One, one Fujitsu 2010 and one Asus EEE PC. I kind of like netbooks and think that the size would be perfect for me.

Even though I don’t get to travel as much as I would like to right now, I think that this would make a perfect companion even at home. You know, sometimes you just need to turn on the computer to check something, that’s when a netbook would come in handy.

I recently was been offered a pretty good deal. It’s HP and retailing at RM1999 but I was told that if I were to charge my credit card, I would only have to pay about RM150 per month for twelve months, totaling RM1899. This means that I would get to enjoy RM100 rebate.

I am really, really tempted to buy it but seriously, I am trying to spend as little as possible seeing how awful the economy is right now. Well, I don’t know. Maybe I will just wait a little bit more. SIGH.

Problems With My Belkin ADSL 2+ Modem with Wireless G Router

I bought this Belkin almost three weeks ago because I wanted their lifetime warranty. Everyone tells me that Belkin is expensive but I do not mind the price as long as I am covered for life. However, since the day I bought it, I have been experiencing frequent disconnection of my broadband internet access.

At first, I thought that there was a problem with the service. I also thought that there was a problem with the cables. I also changed the adapter and finally requested for an exchange but the disconnection keeps happening. I found out that the problem is with this modem because I have a spare Billion modem to test and there was no problem at all.

Now, I am going to get yet another exchange. The shop told me that they would exchange another unit from another brand for me but why should I when I paid for lifetime warranty? I am pretty pissed off, actually, to have to run around to and fro.

I wonder if other people are experiencing the same issues with their Belkin. The shop told me that maybe I am not able to use it in my location. Bull… I don’t believe there’s such thing as an item functioning in one place and not in another. He thinks this is a magnetic product or what?

Information On Beauty Institutes

My sister asked me to help her to compile information on beauty schools in her area. She would like to enroll in a hair school so that she could finally learn hair styling. It would not exactly help her advance in her career because she is currently in the business of retailing beauty products and accessories. However, she says it is good to pick up a skill and it would be great to open a hair styling salon and be her own boss sometime in the future.

I remember reading about Regency beauty many months ago. Students graduated from Regency Beauty schools are very much sought after because they are well trained and their certificates are recognized by all in the beauty industry. I think that my sister or everyone who is interested in venturing in the beauty industry should check out the courses that are being offered by Regency Beauty Institutes.

Man Pleads Not Guilty For Hacking Sarah Palin’s Yahoo! Mail

The man, David C. Kernell, 20, of Knoxville, who is the son of a prominent Democratic Tennessee state lawmaker, has been accused of hacking into the Yahoo! mail account of Republican vice presidential hopeful Sarah Palin.

Sarah Palin’s email gov.palin@yahoo.com is personal but she has been known to conduct state business with this email ads well. David Kernell used the Yahoo! Mail “forgotten password” feature to access Sarah Palin’s email account, correctly answering a few security questions and changing her password to popcorn.

Whether David Kernell really did hack into Sarah Palin’s personal email account and accessing her email, photos and contact numbers of her friends and family members and then posting these information on a public forum, whether David Kernell will receive the punishment that he deserves for his actions if he really did so, is not the issue here.

The lesson that we all should learn is that we should not use real personal information for security questions. Gibberish information is the way to go, but of course, you will need to remember your own answers.

Netflix Inc. Charges $1 More For Unlimited Access To Blu-Ray Rentals

Online DVD rental company, Netflix Inc., has announced that they will be raising monthly membership fee by US$1 (only) which will allow members allow unlimited access to Blu-Ray movies.

Frankly, I watch a lot of movies but I am not that particular about the quality, as long as it is not too bad. I could watch VCD, DVD or even just downloaded movie file unlike some of my friends who are very particular on the format of their movies. I have a friend who would willingly spend a few hundred dollars more every month just to buy Blu-ray movies. He commented that I do not know a good thing when I see it.

I think that for people who are like my friends, paying an additional US$1 per month is no big deal. Even if it’s an additional US$1 per movie rented, it would be well worth it.

Members who are like me who would not mind watching non-Blu-ray movies would have to remember to opt-out of this subscription or be charged US$1 more.

Designer Costume Jewelry Online

I mentioned before that my friend would like to set up an ecommerce store selling handcrafted costume jewelry. She asked me to help her with the store design. Well, I am only good with setting up a functional ecommerce site.

I went to view a few online retailers of costume jewelry and the one that catches my eye most is Holsted Jewelers. They sell designer costume jewelry and fashion jewelry sets at discount prices.

Even though I have no intention to shop for costume jewelry, I am impressed with the way that they present their items, which makes me feel comfortable browsing through. Still many customers say that these designer costume jewelry pieces are way more exquisite in real life than in photos!

If you are looking for designer costume jewelry, I think you should start your search here on Holsted Jewelers. I did not count how many items they have but I trust that you would be able to find just the right jewelry piece right here.
