This is an update from my last simple post about makcik pc.Is it true that Makcik PC is the slimmest tablet pc in the world after Apple launches the Macbook Air? Yeah! its true.
Because Macbook Air is the slimmest in the world for the categories of laptop while Makcik PC is the slimmest tablet PC in the world. Do you agree with me?
Tablet PC and notebook are two different things. Read Tablet PC vs. Laptop: How Do You Choose?
Makcik PC is just a codename for the new mini pc made in Malaysian by MIMOS Berhad. For example SRM is the codename for the Proton Satria Neo and Longhorn is the codename for the Windows Vista. The name of the new tablet pc is probably MIMOS CyberWind. (more…)

E for Everyone
The main issue when we talked about the Eee PC (pronounced as “E” PC, and not “E, E, E” PC) is of course its tiny size. Weighing less than 1 kg and measuring half the length of an A4 paper, it’s certainly one of the smallest “full-fledged” notebooks in our hands. And despite its rather lightweight specifications, the Linux powered device run smoothly without quirks or oddities which usually plague the smaller form factors. Eee PC makes a debut and had been sold all over the world while Makcik PC, the Malaysian made PC is the contender of Eee PC has not been announced yet when it will be available on market? I am pretty sure that Makcik PC will be more affordable to buy for Malaysian rather than Eee PC. (more…)

I have dual boot my laptop with Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon and Windows XP. Last weekend I have redesign my ubuntu appearance to be more like Mac OSX using Mac4Lin(melayubuntu have more about Mac4Lin). Mac4Lin is a open source software to dress up your linux to look similarly like Mac OS. Having fun with my Ubuntu and I forget to use Windows XP. Today, I log in to my Windows XP and what happened? When I open Winamp give me such error. Bad DirectSound driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration. Error code: 88780078.

Hello everyone! I just get back from my hometown. Took the Hasry Express from Batu Pahat to Kuala Lumpur. Sleep all the way. I just registered the new domain name from internet-webhosting for this blog. The new domain is http://www.taszara.com. It is the idea from another administrator of this blog, let me introduce to you, Shaz. I really like to pronounce the word taszara. It’s a combination of two people’s name. Taszara sounds like an arabic name.
Before get back to my campus, I went to Low Yat Plaza at Jalan Bukit Bintang and I bought this new 250GB External Hardisk. I bought this because of my desktop is almost full with movies and television show that I downloaded through my Utorrent.
It is driveless, high-speed, plug and play function with aluminium shell and excellent performance. It require power supply to operate. It is very cheap. The 3.5″ external case is about RM45 and the 250GB Seagate Barracuda 18MB is RM235. I wanted to buy the smaller one which is the 2.5″ but seems like they are very pricy. Size doesn’t matter to me as I consider about the capacity to store all my backup data and my movies database.
