If the price is right I would.. it was a moment of greed in me buying it without thinking of the consequences

I should have focused on MVS instead, that alone already drying me up. And my new CC bill with the AES purchase means no PS3 replacement until next year

Gundam, selling your dreamcast or not? Oh hell, im looking for a SNES.

5 more games coming in, all complete: Fatal Fury 2, Fatal Fury Special, Fatal Fury 3, Samurai Spirits and Samurai Spirits 2. Looking for RM1800 shipped (very heavy).

1.8k????? that's bloody expensive man!!!
with 1.8k I can get a brand new PS3 set with 320Gb HDD with FREE online capability, wireless controller, full HD gaming, blu-ray playback, DTS surround sound, games add-on and PS Move for motion sensing plus a few modern games!!!


your set only worth RM18 the max!

I used both, easy 

NO~! PLAYSTATION 3 IS TEH LEGEND~!!

Agreed on the Apple/Others front as well. The reason why I fart in Apple's general direction and went for Alienware for my laptop "Pro" needs. Now replaced it totally with their desktop. Still using an Air though, even though it is generally loathed by them Apple "fanboys" themselves. You pair your needs with the gears, not becuse it's cheaper. It's gaming fanboys all over again.

I can already hear the excuse coming "Ko boleh la String you have the dough, can buy whatever you want, but we dont, so we have to nitpick". I don't mind nitpicks, just dont start defending your purchases until you're blinded to reasoning on why others pick theirs.


My point is, pick what you wanna do, and pair it with the best equipment. Even if you have to choose and choose to stay with only one option, ACKNOWLEDGE the strengths of other options, not PUTTING THEM DOWN just to make your option look good.

Keyword here: keep your options, and most importantly, YOUR MIND, open. Closing your mind to other options because you cant afford one, breeds fanboyism. Just like how religion is these days. Only that it's not called fanboyism, it's called a cult.

the good old IBM thinkpad, the most durable laptop in the world, which can take a lot of abuses and still working...

I needed BD, and I wanted to game once in a while when I can. Hence Alienware. I also have a need for video encoding and conversions. Not much on productivity needs, as I don't work in an office.

Apple could have easily accommodated me with a BTO option for BD, and I can just opt not to game on the go on a laptop, and just game on PSP/NDS/3DS/iPad/iPhone, but nooooooooooo, they called BD "a bag of hurt". More like it's hurting their bottom line coz it'll be competing with their HD downloads via iTunes. Another case of "options are always good for consumer, not so much for the business end of things".

For my professional needs, even an iPad suffices. I need a device to store my airport charts, do performance calculators, view updated aviation-related weather forecasts. Don't think I need a Thinkpad for that.

Your disgust here with Apple is misplaced. Your beef is with its fanboys, not the Apple products. At one time I was too, I started exploring other options than iPad when the situation in the iPad forum here escalated into the shithole that it is now, but I still find the iPad useful during my Florida trip. However, I have explored the other options, and absolutely smitten with Android Honeycomb, and now going for Blackberry QNX as well for good measure. What I'm trying to say is, pair the right device to the right needs and situation. Bring my iPad to the States with me during my vacation is the right thing to do because app support and usage while I'm there is ubiquitous and prevalent there, bringing my Motorola Xoom would be less effective. However, the moment I'm back here, Xoom takes precedent on usage more than iPad, because of the activities I mainly do here.

Eh, I like Apple because it fits my needs, not coz Jobs have me by the balls or his cock down my orifice. Liking Apple products jut coz it fits one's needs doesn't mean he's a "Steve Jobs cock sucker". It's like me saying you're a "<insert NGCD inventor> cock sucker" for fitting your needs for entertainment. Just sayin'.

I can replace those namebrands you just posted with other brands me or anyone else's likes and that still doesn't make you, me or anyone else any righter than the others.

That "cocksucker" namecalling is getting old. Move along now.  And oh, I'm comfortable enough liking my needs to a particular brand(s) or device to not at the least give a "flying cocksucking fcuk" about what others are thinking of me.

The same is asked backatcha'!

In fact, what mud? It didn't even rain today! If it appears to confrontational,  then its nothing more than misconstrued mixed signal. We men don't menstruate right?

I love my single life. No misconstrued mixed signals there. Plain and simple.

I wouldn't mind sequels since they are new games, with or without old mechanisms. I hate buying something and later on an "improved" version comes out which I feel is cheating, Capcom is the biggest culprit.

SF4, Super SF4, Super SF4 Arcade, next?
Super SF4 Ultimate, Super Mega SF4 Final, Super Super Super Mega SF4 Diamond?

not only Capcom lar... I hated those who release day1 DLCs also, which should be part of the original content, but they decided to take it out as DLC to milk more mooney from us

upcoming SSF4 arcade pre-ordered already?

Non-port KOF buy liao?

BELI JANGAN TAK BELI 

You don't like AES, do you?

oh yeah about the AES, sorry Gundam, me fren back out...
he was expecting something under RM600
