Why I Love Steve Jobs
- Found Apple Inc in the 70s and made the company's product a well-sought after machine in the 70s, 80s.
- Got kicked out of Apple, despite being the co-founder but this doesn't stop this charismatic chap from selling his idea. Thus he founded NeXT (company that deals with movie animation) and that's why we have Ratatouille now
- Magically, Apple bought NeXT for $402million and he returns to Apple
- He was diagnosed with cancer in 2004 but he fought the disease and defeated it.
- We see fine innovations from Apple in recent years – iPOD, iTune, iPhone and his marketing directions has been directing computer users to imac
- He is one cool dude! He always appeared on his black shirt and jeans despite how formal the occasion is (a-hem, this sounds very much like someone who meet lawyers, accountants, bankers in shorts and sports brand jacket?). Always love his Harvard Stanford Commencement Speech.

I resuscitate anigned.org from concussion today. Bei msn me this morning and told me that anigned.org is down. I went in, upgrade, replace files no use…very sad. Then I realised it could be my akismet spam plugin that caused the problem as I've seen some parsing error. So an adventurous me, without knowing any mysql database stuff went into myPHPadmin to go into the correct database table and amend the values over there to deactivate the plugin. and YESSSSSSSS!!!! I BROUGHT BACK ANIGNED.ORG!!!!
ok, 99% of you who read this blog dunno what I'm talking about. But i'm just so happy that my dear baby is back so I must write an entry to mark my personal success. Baby…hang on there…gonna give you a new design soon

Been a PC user since 1997 (yeah…the year i got IT literate). 10 years later, I think I'm going to switch to Apple. A few reasons:
1. Microsoft Vista is disappointing. It didn't wow me as much as XP when it replaced Windows 98
2. Mac OS 10.5 – Leopard is up and coming, all features are looking so cool to me. It has boot camp pre-installed in it, meaning if I miss a good-ole-time of Windows, I may just go over in a snap of a finger.
3. I did ask myself if software is an issue if I switch. Looking at the list of software I installed on my PC, I can have Adobe Family in apple, Iworks serves a good replacement for Microsoft Office. Email clients are no issue, I can still use Outlook in Mac if I want. The rest of the software ARE THERE because I need to protect my PC against spywares and antivirus. Mac ain't needing most of them.
4. Even my favourite Civilization game runs on mac! haha…and the graphic is a lot whole better.
5. iMac looks so chio!!
The list goes on…I think Mr Jobs has won me over this time with his new gadget. It has this cool thing called "Spaces". You can save different desktop arrangement for different purpose. Like me, when I use photoshop, I like a totally clean desktop, no clutters…etc..but when i'm on leisure mode, working on some word docs, is ok, etc…so you can trigger different desktop mode for differenr purpose.
ok, most importantly, I can convert my UNI$ to $600 worth of Apple vouchers…hahaha…ok, when I'm buying? I'm still thinking
It might be next year…i'm quite a stingy fellow when it comes to spending big bucks…haha..
