Streamyx Down.... Up again!

For the last three days or so, my Streamyx service was down. Called TM and as usual, got me to do a whole lot of nonsense before opening a complain report for me. However, once the report was opened, the response was fast. Less than two days, it is up and kicking ***s again.

Don't really know what causes the system to go down on me. Maybe my "streamyx" is unhappy that I've got the alternative connection??? Nah, don't think so as these things don't have life and feelings or else we would be very close to the "Terminator" era.

For what it is worth, both services are performing satisfactorily for me at the moment.

Comparison

Above shown are the results of the comparison of the two ISP. What do you think???

Alternative Connection

Just subscribed to an alternative broadband connection. So far it has just been for a few hours but the speed seems acceptable. Will keep readers updated on my satisfaction to the service.

EeePC

Finally, I've got my EeePC XPized!!!!

It may not be exactly what wanted but it's a start. My current OS is Windows XP SP3. It was changed from the original Xandros Linux. My ultimate would be to get the XP OS into my 8Gb SD. If that is successful, than I could have a dual boot. Xandros on SDD and XP in the SD. Cool?

Now, one would ask, "Why would I want to do all this?" No particular reason for me. Just knowing that I can do it brings satisfaction to myself.

Lately, I found out that I can also install Mac OS X into the EeePC. Hhhmm... now that's interesting...... I suppose the possibilities are endless, if one have his/her mind onto it, anything can be possible.

Again on eBay

Oooo.... I have actually another purchase from ebay before the last posting. I bought a battery for my wife's Kodak camera. Very satisfied with the purchase. It was on promotion. Delivery is FOC and what do you know... I had a bonus from ebay thus crediting some USD into my Paypal account. Summary to all the long story, I only pay about RM3 for the battery which actual price is USD6.99. Not bad, eh?

New Purchases

Hello!!! Totally ages since the last post. My latest purchases, 8G Kingston SD (RM85) and 8G Pendrive (RM68). Is the price reasonable? I believe so at this time. Would probably go lower in time. Why so much memory needed, one may ask? It is for my latest project, to XPize my EeePC currently running on Xandros Linux. Hopefully can share my success story soon.
