News flash! This Just In…

My desktop went bonkers on me!

I am really sorry that I didn’t update my blog for so long.  I have a perfectly good reason and my reason is “LAZY”.

I wanted to update my blog with some pictures from my Langkawi trip and also my recent trip to Kedah and Hat Yai.  I transfered all my pictures into my desktop but my desktop went bonkers on me.  I couldn’t even switch it on now.  I’ve tried trouble shooting it and I *think* my graphics card is the culprit. 

I now have three choices.  First, is to spend about RM200 on a new graphics card, which I don’t know if it’s 100% the culprit or not.  Second, is to buy a new processor, motherboard and memory.  Third, is to buy an iMac. 

My computer is about 7 years old and I’ve been upgrading it part by part.  I am not too sure if I want to spend more money, albeit not a lot, on the setup anymore.  I don’t need a superb computer.  I use it to do my assignments, surf the net and download my Taiwanese game shows.  Hence, the first choice.

If I go for the second choice, I’ll be targeting to spend RM1000 maximum.  With that kind of budget, I don’t think I can get the best setup.  I don’t really need a good setup, just a reliable one will do. 

The third choice is obviously my preferred choice.  I told myself that when my desktop is beyond repair, I’ll get an iMac.  Then there is the budget and my mum’s proficiency on a Mac.  I’d like to go for the iMac but I don’t think I can afford it right now. 

So what do you guys think?

    Definitely iMac though to me I even can’t afford it.
    Why not you take my PC home to fix? Or maybe you might find the love beyond on my PC?
    I think I also need to upgrade my PC or do I need a notebook?

    The best choice… get a new one!

    Please upload those pictures!

    Yeah, I think a new iMac would be good…but do u have the money?

    xiao-ahmei: Your PC is even older than mine lah. No point fixing it. But I’ll check it for you lah, since i promised.

    bro: no i do not have the money and i dont think mama knows how to use a mac. And if i use an iMac, i have no use for my monitor. so it’s not really feasible right now.
