Thinking of which…

 

Hmmm… the first computer I ever used was Sinclair ZX81 with humongous pixel block there is. That was back in 1981. A year later, my dad bought me an Apple II compatible from Singapore (i think it was at Phoenix Plaza or something) and I really used it like a crazy kid with new toys… till I literally short circuited into smokes and flames.

Ahhhhh… WordStar … Ctrl-B and all…

But soon after, I got a brand new Apple IIe…. then Apple IIgs…

hehehehe damn … those were the days….. Amiga, Commodore 64, chess game Acorn…. or was it Argon… 

 

Think Different

I really love this…


The misfits.
The rebels.
The troublemakers.
The round pegs in the square holes.
The ones who see things differently.

They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo.

You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them.

About the only thing you can’t do is ignore them. Because they change things.

They invent. 
They imagine. 
They heal.
They explore. 
They create. 
They inspire.
They push the human race forward.

Maybe they have to be crazy.
How else can you stare at an empty canvas and see a work of art?
Or sit in silence and hear a song that’s never been written?
Or gaze at a red planet and see a laboratory on wheels?

We make tools for these kinds of people.
While some see them as the crazy ones, we see genius.

Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world, are the ones who do.

MobileMe experience…

Okay…

After waiting impatiently for the MobileMe to be fully up and running, I’ve finally managed to play around with it a bit. For some odd reason, the first app that I tried out was MobileMe’s AddressBook.

First impression, WTF!!!! 

How come I have so many “No Name” in my listing? Did MobileMe screw up addressbook? A few moments later, I soon found out it was actually entries for Companies’ number.

What gives?!

Come on, Apple!!!! In the OS X AddressBook, I can use just the name of the Company as entry listing. This should reflect the same on MobileMe AddressBook.
