Nintendo Wii

What started out to deciding to buy the Xbox 360 is changing fast to the looks of the nintendo Wii. Will be going soon to check it out as soon as I am free and subsequently follow the rule of buying.. which is.. see it 3 different times and if you still like it buy it :)..

Wii here I come :)

Game Consoles

Okay Okay....
We got the gaming console war going on, or should I say half done. The Xbox360, PS3 and the Nintendo Wii.

After spending a significant amount of my life researching about the three consoles, This is my conclusion.

Xbox360

Came almost a year before the Ps3, took over the reigning market dominance of the Sony Game console Ps2. It's got excellent visual display and with a new software just recently released, it can play out Hdmi video (High Definition Media Interface - the best video definition available in the world today) to your flat screen.

Verdict
Worth the money, for an average to less than 24/5 gamer, this should do it. It comes cheaper than the Ps3 and has a lot more game titles out as of now. The graphics are simply amazing.


Ps3

Ps3’s predecessor the Ps2 had the distinction of the largest number of video consoles produced in its days. Ps3 never did follow suit, with its late delivery. But saying that, the Ps3 is technologically more advanced than the Xbox 360, and highly expensive too.

Verdict
Came 2 late, came expensive, no real games to push to maximize the gaming consoles potential which subsequently makes it a more expensive Xbox 360 :) There are features but nothing that you would really use :), The graphics beats all the other game consoles.


Nintendo Wii

When the Xbox 360 and Ps3 were bragging of their capabilities to produce the most visualizing graphics plus the amount of power in their gaming machines. The Nintendo Wii doesn’t even come close. But that's not why I never compared it to the Xbox360 and Ps3. The Wii is a new concept altogether with a remote control that acts as a motion sensor. Whether it’s hitting the tennis ball across the court or having a sword fight with the enemy. It's the game console that's thought out of the box, which is to go one step ahead and get interactive

Verdict
Okay you don't have the most amazing graphics drooling your TV, nor do u have the fastest computer put in your Wii, nor do you have the other 10 or so features that Xbox 360 and Ps3 have. But what you do have is a game that is interactive, a game the whole family i.e. from the kids to your grandparents totally immersed in it. You would find UTube videos of guys showing how they played on Wii and lost weight!!! Gaming has never been more fun. With the prices among the other gaming console been the cheapest, It’s not a bad buy :)

Review - Sony Ericsson W800i Mobile

It has been 1 year since I brought this mobile, Costed 155KD then, got it from a dealer much before it came to the retailers. When the mobile did come to the retailers some tens days after it costed 150KD (Alghanim). So it's like the 5 bucks which I paid could be classified as being a first user's value (in Kuwait)

Anyway getting to the review, the mobile as shown above has served me well (although I really never took care of it, I would say more like I had abused it, noticed from the scratches all over the mobile) But all that said and done, the mobile has managed to withstanbd my abusive handling and still serves me well.

The mobile features a 2 Mega pixel carama, has a 512mb memory card provided with it (that stores to around 150 songs) and has bluetooth and infra red. All of these services I have tried and tested and and served me well even after like the mobile fell 5 to 6 times off my hand. Another feature I had tried was the capability to control your computer or laptop using the bluetooth feature, First time I tried it was pretty exciting. Its proberly good for those situations where you would be presenting a power point presentation to a group of people through a projector using the laptop and could control the slides using the mobile :). I am sure half of you guys having the latest mobile have'nt tried this feature out :)

In fact I am so pleased with the mobile that I don't mind buying a new W800i to replace the damaged one I have. But keeping to my self imposed rule, I would be using it for another 4 years before I would change.

Sony W800i Thumbs Up!!!

T60

Well today I get the T60 or more precisly the IBM t60 laptop for use at Office (Since my old t43 goes into a hang every , Just a few minutes with it and I already feel I should have got this earlier, The lappy is fast.. very fast, its a core 2 duo, witha 1GB ram and an ATI Graphics card(just wish i could get games into this). It's kinda making me feel like working more today :).

Subsequent to this latest development, I upgrade my opinions about Knight Rider knowledge about IT :)

This week I would be blogging less as I would be trying to study(for real) for an exam I would be taking in Abu Dhabi next thursday.

Hope I get through this time though hehe :)

XPS 1210

Thursday went to Zak Solutions service center in Shuwaik, told the guy I had opened up my laptop annd found out that my Ram was the problem. Then gave him the defective Ram and told him I wanted a replacement. Told him i dont want to leave my laptop there and he's like it maybe coz of the slot. I told him its not so! Well this time the guy ran out of excuses and after making a few phone calls he gets me another Ram module (dunno if it's a new piece) but whateva at least he got me a working piece. I dont think I will be going to the place again in my life. I told him that i had come 5 times to get my laptop problem fixed and it was a shame they couldn't figure out it was the Ram module that was the problem. Worse than that was the fact that I (customer) took the place of the the service guy and fixed my(customer) laptop. Only question remaining to answer is "Why do we need to have dell sponsored service guys if they cant fix or for that sake figure their own product problems?" :)

Here's a picture of my Laptop all fixed and decked up :)
