Q: A man walks into a bar and knock himself out... why?
Edvarcl Heng | Nov 25, 2005
I may be wrong, but from the accounts of some Macintosh devotees, if there're two vital destinations that an Apple cultist has to pay homage at, it would be the Apple shop in SoHo, New York, and MacWorld. But that takes oodles of greenbacks, and after footing the bill for a 30-inch cinematic Apple monitor, there's probably only just enough left to top up the ez-link card.
Apple connoisseurs on a shoestring budget can rest easy, however, since a new Apple center has opened at the Cineleisure complex in Singapore. The Club 21 ishop. Local fashion powerhouse + coolest tech brand on the planet. Geddit? Its free entry and it does not have a discriminatory policy against PC users. But expect plenty of fruity evangelists, gorgeous Apple ware (Bottega Veneta) and dedicated after-sales support. Hell, there's even a coffee bar. Now you can have your Apple and drink it too.

Meet Wabi and Sabi, two iPod accessories that might have felt right at home in a Zen rock garden. Cast in stone, literally, the duo weigh as much--at 1.7kg and 2.5kg, respectively. So you can forget about packing it along on your next road trip. And if gadget blog Fosfor.de heard right on the grapevine, there are just two such docking cradles in the world. Hence, the hefty US$2,650 sticker shock--a princely sum only eBay fanatics may be crazy enough to cough up.

Don't play that CD! The boss may be watching
Edvarcl Heng | Nov 15, 2005
Unlike my aunts who like their nest eggs within arms reach... in a cookie tin under the bed, sound slumber to me is knowing that there isn't a hacker sniggering at my bank balance via a certain rootkit right now. Interestingly, Sony has its own bank. Wonder what the IT policy on CDs is like over there.

Unrooting the Sony issue
Edvarcl Heng | Nov 15, 2005
Sony say it is not making the affected CDs anymore, not because it finally admits that it ain't right to secretly install rootkits, but as a precautionary measure. Hello?

EMI: We don't use rootkits
Edvarcl Heng | Nov 14, 2005
It's not exactly what I'd call blame pushing, but EMI sure does a swell job of getting the fine art of finger-pointing down pat. "Our hands ain't red, it's them, it's them! They are the evil ones! We don't control your computer... only your music.
