In France, the government wants the music being sold by Apple to be playable on other devices, not only ipods. This sounds good but I feel it is unfair to Apple.

In Malaysia, especially the ISP industry, Telekom Mxlxysia monopolises the local market. I believe the .gov will not encourge foreign ISPs into our country to pose as TM competitors. Furthermore, if an ISP is going to provide broadband services, they would still need to rent ports from TM.

When will our government ever approve other ISP companies to use TM ports as well? 😀 It would be just like what the French government is going to do to Apple 😛

Ever since the announcement of Windows XP can be booted on MacBook Pro, there are geeks around the world who did some benchmark on Windows XP Performance on MacBook Pro.

Sad news for Linux user who play World of Warcraft on WINE. A World of Warcraft gamer who calls himself Infernix received an email from Blizzard Europe after he was unable to connect to World of Warcraft server.

The email from Blizzard Europe said that Infernix is using a 3rd party software to play World of Warcraft and it violated the rules & policies of the game. Besides that, if you are using a programmable keyboard to play World of Warcraft, it might get ban too (So? Don’t buy expensive keyboard to play World of Warcraft :P)

Read the email conversation between Infernix and Blizzard Europe. How about Mac users who are running Darwine? also get banned? 😀

A popular computer hardware company, Alienware; which sells high end desktops, laptops and workstations was bought by Dell? According report on CNet, it seem like Dell may have bought Alienware to become part of their strong growing PC/Laptop business.

I remember Henry asked me to buy Alienware laptop last time, Alienware design really kickass, looks very powerful and high-end, but I was not so sure how the performance would be. Wondering if there are any Malaysians who own an Alienware machine? I would like to have one, but the price is high…
