Quick update July 2009

Jul 6

Posted by Kenneth in Randomness, Work | No Comments

Haven’t been updating much on what has been going on for me recently. So here goes…

My last update about work had been the launch of our Online Golf booking portal. It has since been going smoothly without requiring a lot attention, the automated process is something that i have been proud of myself. Along the way, there had been some good deals for golf teetimes at some of the Singapore golf courses; so if you happen to play golf, you are most welcome to check it out at www.clickateeonline.com.

Now’s the time to share about what’s next. We have released a Handicapping System and going through a pilot test with one of our participating clubs, Keppel Golf Club. Things are looking good for now and we are ready to go for a full launch very soon. So stay tuned.

Besides work, nothing much has been going on for me. Perhaps some self learning on Grails, iPhone SDK and some brushing up. Still work related LOL

The day my Macbook pro died on me – Part 2

Jul 31

Posted by Kenneth in Apple, Randomness, Work | 2 Comments

Dropped off my MBP at the iShop service centre. It was really dumb when everything was back to normal again. Grrr. The service centre person(malay lady) kinda had this look of disbelief. I asked whether there were any related cases with the recent GPU problem and i got a “i dunno” reply.

She ran a scan with ‘Disk Utility’ and after about 10 minutes of trying hard not to disturb her, the laptop started to show signs of problem. The light went off and she said, “It looks like your back light has some problem.” Fiddling around with the screen brightness keys, she managed to get the screen up. Soon afterwards, my laptop started to get hangy with the usual multi-color rolling ball. This time i really have no idea what the hell is wrong with my laptop. Quite irritating that these people have no clear idea of what happen as well. She checked with her mates and told me she will send it in for servicing.

3-5 working days is my downtime. Hopefully, i can get a clear answer on what happened. Luckily i still have my iMac. I still love my mac in case you guys think i might be thinking otherwise.

The day my Macbook Pro died on me

Damn… just when i was all geared up to start work, my mbp just chose to give me a black screen of death. I narrowed down the problem to my GPU when i tried connecting it to a monitor. F7 simply does not switch the screen. Luckily everything else was intact when i could hear music with Last.fm activated with quicksilver.

The saviour of the night is my somewhat old iMac, a firewire cable and migration assistant on the mac. My MBP user workspace was all up and running in two hours of full user account migration. Everything remained the same (even desktop image and Stickies notes). Phew!!
