Some Things Come In Small Packages
June 9th 2008 -
Short note:
- After Friday’s midpoint interview and assignment submission, I’ve finally felt my heavy burden have finally been lifted up. But that’s not the end yet. Final exam is just next week and although semester break may be around the corner but that’s just the beginning of a new chapter. I called it the “nightmare”.
- Some of my friends know very well that I hardly watch the television unless I really got nothing else to do. Well, that’s not my point. My point is, I only started watching “Sex in the City” Season 1 just few days ago and I find the whole thing rather educational. In the good way. Don’t get me wrong.

At the recent WCIT 2008 event, my mum won something…
Well, I bet all you can think of is a laptop because FTec only know for their laptops…
It’s not just any ordinary laptop. In fact, it’s a Smartbook by FTec! (some of you probably have heard about it by now)
Of course, this is nothing compared to the HP mini that Kenny owns. From one glance, it is obvious that you would think it’s a laptop for kids. No doubt about it. In fact, some of the schools in Malaysia are already using Smartbook for their classrooms. I think the laptop is rather cute (in the sense, ugly but adorable), but then again, I can’t complain since my mum have got it for free! Come to think of it, this laptop worth over RM1k. Although I wouldn’t get one myself, but I’m sure it will come in handy if I were to travel somewhere for a few days and just needed a laptop to check my mails or so.
From what I was told by my mum, the FTec Smartbook is durable in the sense that it can even survive a hard fall, as it was demonstrated during the WCIT event. The Smartbook may not be as efficient in performance wise as it is build for simple usage, e.g. check mail, writing notes, but I guess it has it advantages of being lite weight and durability in places with nature disaster.
Man, why does it sound so research like? Anyway, if you like to know more about the Smartbook, feel free to look up on the Internet. Else, you can view some of the resources from here, here, here, here, here and here.

Jeff: I have yet to test out the laptop. Wanna try install some software and probably bring to college to surf net. LOL. ;P But the problem is, it can hardly detect my wifi at home. What more else where.
*feeling doubtful*
