As for today, I registered quite a few domains and collect for myself, and recently I just bought the domain kahpeng.sg from Exabytes during their SG Domain Fever promotion. The price is dirt cheap for the 1st year, and the following 2nd year and so, still cheap comparable to other web hosting company in Singapore. I know about the pricing because I did some homework on the domain price lately when my manager told me to check on the price and there might be a need to register 2 more .com.sg domain for the company.

More? Okay, as Exabytes customers, you are always entitle to receive promotions and freebies from them. Recently, I attended Exabytes Durian Buffet at Balik Pulau, Penang which is only limited for the FIRST 50 customers. From my years of hosting with Exabytes, I did attended before 1 movie screening and missed another movie screening which is due to the fact that I’m not around Penang, I gave away the movie tickets to my brother, and now I’m looking forward for my FREE 2 movie vouchers !!

Note: Okay, it’s been a while since my last blog post. I admit after I started to work, I am slacking a lot. I do not maintain all my blogs, sites, and of course my online income also drop a lot. Anyway, this post is regarding my latest encounter in my life.

Recently, about 1 week ago, I notice that my notebook’s CPU cooling fan is not functioning. The fan is not spinning. The next thing is I worry that my notebook’s processor might gets too heated up.

As usual, the first thing I done is … search for the parts in eBay!! Yes, I am ebayer~~ I found the cheapest cooling fan which is meant for other model but compatible with my notebook model is selling at USD $6.99 + USD 4.60 for shipping to Singapore.

Next, I try to Google for my notebook’s replacement fan. I was upset that I couldn’t find any online shop selling my notebook’s CPU cooling fan except for…. PCHub.com

PCHub.com is selling the CPU cooling fan that I wanted for…. FREAKING SGD $3 ONLY. This fan is not brand new, just a used parts but it comes with 30 days of exchange warranty. I just came back from their shop at Peninsula Shopping Center, replace my CPU cooling fan and everything is working fine.

I will recommend any of my friends to look for used laptop parts from PCHub.com because they have a wide variety of laptop brands parts that you might be looking for. And some of you might think this is a sponsored post, but NO, it’s not. I am writing this because I love to give credits to shops that sell cheap and quality parts. =D

A simple example, during my stay in Australia for my studies, at first my friends and I were dissapointed at the broadband they offered at Australia. The place we were staying, we were paying about $69.90 for 1.5Mbps broadband speed for 70 – 80GB of data transfer. If we exceeded the cap, the speed will be reduced to 512kbps.

Ridiculous comment…

With the latest announcement by Telekom Malaysia, many people are rejoicing. Among them is communications consultant Justin Then, who said he’s happy to note that Telekom Malaysia listens to consumers.
“Capping our high speed Internet access doesn’t make sense, if the Government wants Malaysians to seek out knowledge and be innovative,” he said.
- quoted from Telekom Malaysia suspends download cap for UniFi

Based on the quoted sentences above, this is ridiculous comment. To encourage Malaysian to seek out knowledge and be innovative doesn’t need plenty of data transfer. Only those have the intentions to downloads lots and lots of movies, animes, videos and etc will feel the ‘pain’ if Telekom set the cap.

My point is, if Malaysia government want to provide fast broadband connection, lower down the package price, remain the cap and provide reasonable speed packages, then it will be good for everyone. The reason why I support Telekom Malaysia to set cap for data transfer is very simple, because my friends and I experienced been through all these situations. My housemate, KoDoMo is abusing the high speed of broadband to download movies and animes from the Internet. Therefore before end of the month, during the 4th week, our internet speed dropped to 512kbps because we were out of quota.

Now, can you imagine if Malaysia can provide high speed broadband without data transfer cap?

Hmmm… what do you think ?

What is Exabytes?

You’ve heard a lot about Exabytes probably from your friend or maybe someone posted about Exabytes in Facebook or Twitter. Exabytes is the web hosting company that I have been hosting my websites for the past 4 years. I never regret after I decided to host my sites with Exabytes all this years because I’m getting good customer  services, the cheap domain pricing, web hosting promotions and the most basic thing is the overall price is good. In these 4 years, I enjoyed so many promotions and freebies from exabytes such as FREE movie tickets and good bargain for web hosting deals on special occasions such a on Chinese New Year, Hari Raya or even ST Patrick Day! Not to forget, Exabytes CEO, Chan Kee Siak always celebrate the awards that Exabytes received by having more promotions to current clients or new clients. No wonder, Exabytes is voted as no 1. web hosting company in Malaysia.

Latest Promotions from Exabytes!

Here's the parking ticket before I insert to the payment machine.

Before you continue reading below, I’m not complaining a lot because I understand that, this is the rate for any car park at central Brisbane. But just that before this, I never know this is the rate until I paid the price $49 for parking 7 hours and 8 minutes

OMG! See the price AU$49 for parking fee? XD

No choice, we have to pay!
