Missing my new Laptop

I got my new Dell Inspiron 6400 (with 2GB RAM, Truelife Screen, Vista Home Premium, blah blah) over the last weekend and was exploring and admiring .. AND LOVING.. my new machine.

Hey, gimme a break. Its my ONLY Computer purchase for the last, what, 7 years ? I have been using old machines and upgrading with spare parts that other people threw away.

Anyway, to cut the story short, Today is the first day I am separated with it. (I brought it to office yesterday to solve some performance problem with Outlook.) And by lunch time just now, I am already missing it.

I miss the large screen (as compared to my office one)...
I miss the WIDE screen...
I miss re-organizing my data (photos, documents, videos, etc)...

In short, I felt love-sick.. craving to touch my sleek and sexy machine quickly.. hahaha..
Ok.. this is getting pathetic..

Now I am filling up by HDD space, and I have barely 30GB left in my laptop. And I haven't even transferred my porn-videos.. hahahah... I need more storage !

More Jobs taken from Older Singaporeans ?

I'd learnt about this small bit of information from my course of work.

You know those small kiosk at bus/MRT interchanges, where you have the uncles and aunties sellnig drinks, newspapers and magazines ?

Well, seems like SPH will be buying them over on phases, and franchising out to youngsters. Why youngsters ? So that they can also start to sell technology products (like mobile phones, etc) as they want to showcase wireless hotspot as well (allowing people to surf the web while waiting for buses/MRTs).

So, another small group of jobs taken away...
