Eee PC

I saw a very small notebook this morning at QQStation Centerpoint Gadong. It's an Asus Eee PC 701 selling for BND 698.00. I felt tempted to buy it.... Actually tempted to get the missus to buy it for me ;) since it's bonus day for her ... hint hint ;)

Checkout a video review below I found from youtube!


Good deal

Time of a little break. I'm actually busy doing a tender proposal due for submission tomorrow.

Anyway, I bought 2 desktop PCs yesterday for
my kids. Don't ask me how and where I got it but I think is a very good deal. Basically it's a new PCs still in the boxes but with a older specifications.

  • 17" (16.0"v.i.s) CRT Monitor

Cost me BND300.00 each. Since I don't need the monitors, I sold it off for BND60.00 each. Basically I bought it for BND240.00 each. Now my kids is using it to play Disney Online games and some games they have in a CD. I'm also borrowing it for web surfing!

"Computer Neck" pain is a very common condition among computer users. The result of long hours seated in an unchanged position, often with a poor posture or curved upper spine, is tight and painful neck muscles, neck stiffness, and commonly, associated headache.

Well, I think I'm suffering one right now. This long holiday, I’ve been spending too much time in front of my notebook. Then yesterday late afternoon I felt an eyestrain and stiffness at the back of my neck. I stop working , lie down and relax. Night time I felt slightly fine and I went back on my notebook and create a post for my blog.

This morning after spending an hour working in front my notebook I felt it again. I can't stand it any longer and straight away I went to one of the massage shop in Kiulap. I requested them to give me a shoulder, neck and head massage. Oh.... it felt really good. Afternoon, I cancel my plan to run. Instead, I did my own version of stretches at home.

I should also try out Danurasana hints on releasing stiffness and aches in the neck and shoulders.
