Looks pretty! Now I just gotta change a couple images to make it a little more unique… green is nice, but I want to stick with red :) Updated WordPress version too!

But that’s for tomorrow… too sleepy now…

Here’s the original screenie so I know how it looked like after I tweaked it.

I forgot to post… I went to Oktoberfest 2 weekends ago… and it was a blast :)

Here’s some of the selected “PG-rated” pictures :D (it has some pics from Stratford since we visited it before hitting Oktoberfest. Pretty. I like Stratford.)

Oktoberfest Weekend 2008

Oh, and I kinda tweaked the pages around a wee bit, and a new “About Me” page!

Once upon a time in the land of flat-panel, in the city of HDTV, there were 2 different types of people… the plasma and the LCD. The plasma’s are the originals; the founding race of the whole land. They were deemed as the elder, the wise; their contrast and quality are superior to LCD. The LCD is a fairly younger race, yet they grow and evolve in leaps and bounds. Their biggest evolution are their raw size, availability, and price. The plasma’s realize this, and thus after what seems to be such short age, the LCD’s reign seems to inherit the country. Regardless, all is well. Evolution takes it place.

On one given day a few months ago, a new type of species were born… they were the OLED’s….

The OLED are an elite, beautiful, superior race to both LCD and Plasma, yet due to their small size (and slim thickness) and absurd price; their turn to reign the country are still nowhere in the foreseeable future. They are rarely seen in the streets of HDTV-city, and seems to be spending secretly a lot of time researching the evolution of their race.

 

Suddenly… one day, a beautiful entity was seen across the Internet sea. It has brilliant contrast, ultra-slim physique, great angle and world-class colour… the fruit of countless hours of the OLED engineers… a glimpse of the future of OLED…..

BEHOLD!!

There’s a bunch of previews in the net regarding Windows 7 and they ALL looks promising… but isn’t that the same thing when Vista was the hype? Matter of fact, isn’t that always the thing when new products are introduced? A hype is built up and we all got dissapointed when it got delivered.

Ok, maybe not all, but most. I’m just saying, it’s very common that new things oftenly pushed the bar higher on the level of expectation, and even more often that the finished product failed to achieve such expectation.

But you know what’s funny? The fact that humans kept doing the exactly same thing over and over again in all recorded history.

 

I won’t go into the whole psychological crap (due to the fact I’m currently in the office), I guess I just want to say “here we go again… I think Windows 7 will be a great product and I will buy it when it’s out!”

 

And I actually will. You can count on it.

 

Here’s the latest review I just read this morning: Gizmodo explains. It’s short, sweet, and downright makin me giddy!
