The Big Difference Between AMD APU and Intel Sandy Bridge

AMD and Intel people, if you are reading this, don’t take heart, yah? XD

Even though both AMD Fusion APUs and 2011 Intel Core a.k.a Sandy Bridge processors have been officially launched few months ago – heck, Sandy Bridge were already on display at local shops loooong before they were even officially revealed at CES - they are just about to get their official Malaysian launch this month. So, heads up to local hardware enthusiasts everywhere.

College Marching Band Do Rage Against The Machine Tunes

If only school/my uni was this awesome, I would dedicate my time to actually learn taugehs (my nick name for musical notes) proper and join marching band. Oh wai- there were no marching bands in my school/uni. :(

If my mind remembers correctly, the marching band mixed Rage Against The Machine's classic Killing In The Name and Bulls on Parade on this tune. Simply class.

Samsung Big Unveil At Mobile World Congress 2011 : Watch It Live Here!

Ok, maybe it is not that big of unveiling anymore since the Internet is already full with leaked official press shots and tech specs of Samsung Galaxy S II and Galaxy Tab II but hey, nothing comes close to seeing them to be unveiled live...or at least, through live telecast. Thanks to Samsung, you can watch the telecast right here at my humble blog!

The telecast is scheduled to start at 1:00AM, Monday 14 February (Malaysian time) – which is around 10 minutes from now - and prior to the actual telecast, the player below will be showing the Galaxy S II teaser that Samsung released few days ago. So, grab some snack + drinks and enjoy the show right after the jump!

Note: Alternatively, you can also watch the telecast at Samsung Malaysia’s Univez’s Facebook page over here or at SamsungUnpacked.com. Also, just refresh the page until it shows the actual telecast if you still seeing the teasers after 1:00AM.

Here's To The White Stripes, One of The Greatest Two-Piece Bands Ever

Like many people in this planet, I was introduced to The White Stripes through Fell In Love With A Girl. Even it is very minimalistic song, it is one hella catchy tune. One more thing about the band is that I really love their music videos especially the stop-motion greatness that is Hardest Button to Button [check it out after the jump].

Because of those two reasons, I'm pretty sad that earlier this month, they have decided to end their journey as a band after close to 14 years together. :(

"The White Stripes do not belong to Meg and Jack anymore. The White Stripes belong to you now and you can do with it whatever you want. The beauty of art and music is that it can last forever if people want it to. Thank you for sharing this experience. Your involvement will never be lost on us and we are truly grateful, " - The White Stripes.

Thanks for the music, Jack and Meg. Even though Jack might have plethora of other music projects such The Racontuers but White Stripes is White Stripes; they are just not the same.

Someday We'll Know.

Yet another sleepless night, yet another song for the broken hearted.

---

90 miles outside Chicago
Can't stop driving I don't know why
So many questions I need an answer
Two years later you're still on my mind

Whatever happened to Amelia Earhart?
Who holds the stars up in the sky...
Is true love once in a lifetime?
Did the captain of the Titanic cry?

Someday we'll know if love can move a mountain
Someday we'll know why the sky is blue
Someday we'll know why I wasn't meant for you

Does anybody know the way to Atlantis
Or what the wind says when she cries
I'm speeding by the place that I met you
For the 97th time...tonight

I bought a ticket to the end of the rainbow
I watched the stars crash in the sea
If I could ask God just one question
Why aren't you here with me...tonight?

Someday we'll know why Samson loved Delilah
One day I'll go dancing on the moon
Someday you'll know that I was the one for you

Moving on is hard but progress is here. Things have been better and rest assured, it will continue to do so.

What Agger Was Thinking When He Elbowed Torres Last Night

Yup, I am pretty sure that's exactly what he was thinking when he strike 'em elbow into Torres' face last night. What, missed the match? Then check out the elbow video right after the jump.

Nota Kaki: If you would to join other Scousers Liverpool fans in celebration of "Danny-elbow", you can join the The Day Daniel Agger Elbows Fernando Torres Facebook page or Agger's right elbow appreciation thread at Liverpool's official forums. Can't believe I'm writing about Liverpool but the picture above called for it!

Old Spice Dude Is Back: New Advert Is Now Online

Seriously, the Old Spice dude campaign is one of the best ever. I actually bought one of the Old Spice body shower after watching the ads repeatedly for...I don't know...20, 30 times at least? It just so hilarious! Plus, the Old Spice dude even made couple of personalized videos for quite a number of people that responded to the campaign. [I've talked about it on Lowyat.NET]

If you can't get enough of the dude - played by Isaiah Mustafa - guess what...he is back with a new ads(plus two more, all to be released officially after the upcoming Super Bowl)! The video is currently - at the time this post is posted - unlisted on YouTube which means you can't find it there directly; so, you can either watch it after the jump or go to this link.

I even include the previous two ads just in case you never heard of the campaign before. Enjoice!
