My New LCD TV

by DeM0NiCk on May 3, 2008, under Tidbits

Last Monday, I bought an LCD TV for my new place. A 32″ Toshiba Regza. Well, my place isn’t ready yet, but I got this at a bargain so I grabbed it while I can. You see, my brother’s friend won this off a lucky draw, and she wanted to sell it away. I only paid RM1900 for it. Not bad right? The specs are not really high end, but it’s good enough for me. Right now, it’s being hooked up to an Audiolab amplifier and a Bose speaker system which I will also bring over to my new place. *drool drool* Sweet huh?

16-03 Update:

On another note, my condo renovations are scheduled to start mid May. There’s lots of things to be done. Hacking down a wall from the master bedroom to the study to become a walk-in wardrobe, changing tiles in all 3 rooms to timber flooring, plaster ceiling in the main hall for downward lightings and corneys all round the place. Right now, I’m still thinking of what colors to be up on the walls. I’m pretty much set on the wall in dining area to be mustard yellow together with dark brown furniture. There is another wall which is going to be a feature wall where there will be paintings and photo frames. The feature wall is the first wall upon entering the place. I was thinking of painting that either Olive Green or Rust Brown color. The rest of the walls are cream in color. Below is a sketch of my reno plans…what do you think?

Showing Off Time =p

by DeM0NiCk on October 26, 2007, under Tidbits

Well, like I said, I will post pictures (and bore you) taken from my new camera just to show you all how good my baby is (hey, give me some chance for bragging rights lah! :p). This was taken while I was having dinner with Calyn earlier this evening.

Pictures below were taken at lowly lit conditions. Neither pictures were not “Photoshoped” to adjust brightness nor color. The only thing done was resizing for obvious reasons.

This was taken using strobe flash mode…and yet it’s not over exposed

Calyn & I - Noticed the natural lighting? Again using strobe flash mode.

Ok, I think I shall end it here, if not later you people will start boy cotting my blog.

Decisions

by DeM0NiCk on October 17, 2007, under Tidbits

Here is the thing…in my previous post I said I wanted to get those limited edition Woven Airscapes. NOWWWW….I saw something else that I wanted. A new digital camera! The FinePix F50fd . Just look at the features and the review on PC Magazine and you will know what I mean. So how now?? Well honestly, I think it’s a better (or a wiser) decision to be investing on a digital camera rather than a pair of over priced sneakers. But…..that would mean I have to sell my old one! So who wants to buy my old Fuji FinePix F455, do let me know. It’s in extremely good condition for a camera that is slightly over 2 years. Not even a scratch - it looks like it came straight out of the box…honest!

Well what attracted me to the Fuji camera was because it comes with high ISO capability (ISO 6400) and has a night auto-focus PIM. In layman terms, it takes very good night shots. It also comes with the standard anti-shake function. Also, it’s the first camera that takes both xD and SD memory cards, so I can have an option (finally!).

So how?
OR

Well, those who wants my old camera, I’m willing to sell it for around RM 400 (still negotiable though) which comes with an extra battery and extra xD picture cards. But then, I think I will most likely get the camera…wait…sneakers…..no wait…camera….arrrggghhh!!!

I Need New Toys

by DeM0NiCk on February 19, 2007, under Tidbits

It’s been awhile since I last got a new toy. It was mid last year when I got my N80 mobile phone. Now, I need something new. So what do I have in mind?

1. Choice of Canon IXUS 900 Ti OR Olympus µ 1000 digital cameras

2. Choice of Sony NW-S706F OR Samsung YP-K5 Mp3 players

3. A project to enhance my ICE (In Car Entertaintment) which might need:
A pair of new speakers (got ‘em already), an additional amplifier, and new head unit all together.

I think if I have the dough, I want all 3 of the above. However, due to financial constraints, I think I can only choose one of the options. My hands are getting itchy. What do you think?
