Here's a picture taken earlier today of a Mac OS X Leopard running on a Dell Inspiron 1420. Its booting from a portable hard drive, I'm checking whether all the hardware are compatible with the OSX before proceeding installing the OSX on that Dell. Unfortunately...that version (distro) of OSX, kalaway 10.5.2 are not that compatible with that dell, the wifi/ethernet ain't running, there's no sound..but the graphic were smooth..there is no jerkyness when moving the windows across the screen. Reading on an installation guide from wiki.osx86project.org...it did mention that inspiron 1420 works well with Leo4Allv3 10.5.2....with some minor teaks and patch need to be done before OSX runs smoothly on that type of machines...before anything could be done..firstly, i need to get a hold of a copy of Mac OSX installation disk....and for that, i need to torrent it....maybe tommorow it would be finised downloading...then i need the help of Toriq to install it....the installation needs some wicked scripting and tweaks that only a mac user know how....Owh..did i forget to mention that Dell is mine?....yup...just came by courier yesterday...i actually ordered it online last week on monday...the last day of pc fair...they have a sweet deal for that last day.....they throw in 2GB ram and 250 GB HDD for the price of rm 2400++. The decision to buy a laptop came when we find it hard to do my assignments, labs and lily presentations without our own laptops...It comes with windows vista home basic, a intel core 2 duo T5750 2 GHz, 2 Gb Ram, 250 Gb HDD and other things like bluetooth and sd card reader here's a few pictures of the notebook....

08.08.08
It's 08.08.08, thought i post something before the day ends...its a historical date...its the number that the Chinese thought would bring good fortune..and the the Chinese believe it means rich..so if you are rich and drive a big ass car...you should have number 8 as your number plate, preferably 8888....No wonder the Beijing Olympics is today...i wonder how hard they persuade the Olympics committee to pick them to the 2008 Olympics....
Other historical moment is Azly (my office mate) nikah, somewhere in Jitra, Kedah....people loves to do weddings on certain dates....and 08.08.08 is the most sort out dates to do weddings.... I my self loves 07.07.07..... i love numbers involing 7....it's not my lucky number and it never brings me luck but i just like the number 7....
ok....i need to get ready to go to Su's house..need to visit Pak Jang..he'll be doing an angiogram tomorrow...so i thought might as well see how is he doing....Chow...
