iPad Keyabord Case

zuying1985 — Sun, 14 Apr 2013 13:05:02 +0800

Hi all,
I currently own an Apple BT Wireless Bluetooth keyboard with iPad smart cover for my usage while on the go, but found quite inconvenient as I need to find a flat table to use it comfortly.

I've come across searching for any other keyboard solutions and come to the Logitech Ultra thin bluetooth keyboard and the Sharksucker Bluetooth keyboard.

Didn't able to find much review about Sharksucker keyboard as both of the info are posted by their own ppl, SEO,etc. As for logitech, so far the review is good, and it is a "Logitech"

the below is the issue that making me dilenma on choosing which:

Sharksucker (http://www.lazada.com.my/Sharksucker-Bluetooth-Keyboard-For-Apple-iPad-234-116906.html#)
pro:
- flexible view angle
- cheaper (about 50%) - RM 179
- USB charging for iPad (can be optional, not really need about this)

con:
- not sure about the build quality and keyboard feedbacks
- total up weight with iPad itself will be around 1.2kg, i think it's macbook air weight

Logitech Ultrathin
pro:
- lighter (about 50%), thinner
- better shortcut key (could be or could not be important)
- from review the keyboard feedback and build quality looks not bad

con:
- expensive (RM 299)
- limited view angle

Would like to ask is anyone own an Sharksucker keyboard? would like to get one if the keyboard feedback and quality is acceptable (if compare to Apple keyboard, I'm quite impressed of it). The keyboard feedback is important to me as most of the time I'm doing coding, support, SSH

Hope to get any suggestion here.

Anyone upgrade SSD and build fusion drive?

zuying1985 — Tue, 19 Mar 2013 13:59:15 +0800

I'm using Macbook Pro 13 mid 2012, planning to get OWC Mercury Electra 6G 128GB SSD with Data Doubler Kits to upgrade for my macbook.

Any suggestion that I could buy from local store or order from OWC straightaway (since they provide a good video guide on how to setup the double hard drive with their kit)

It might be a little bit expensive included the postage, hope if anyone has experience on this so I can setup with cheaper cost (if i can buy the SSD and the kit at local store)

And also anyone tried setup fusion drive, performance wise how?

Dell 1420 Fans Club

zuying1985 — Sat, 28 Jul 2007 11:28:15 +0800

Dell Inspiron 1420

Window XP Driver[SIZE=7]

QUOTE

Nvidia GeForce 8400M GS What Windows neglects to mention is that this is actually the Nvidia GeForce GO 8400m gs. Yes, the GO makes a difference, as I can attest to after failing to install SEVERAL non-GO. I ended up finding drivers that worked from here:
Nvidia 8400 GS

Chipset Drivers: I installed the Intel drivers, and ended up with a whole bunch of unknown PCI devices or something. So, on a lark, I downloaded and installed the Ricoh (version A00) chipset drivers, which seem to control the SD card reader (even though the SD card reader was working). Suddenly, my chipset was working. Everything, that is, except for one unknown "PCI Device" listed under the System Devices. What could it be? Could it possibly be...

Conexant Modem: From the 1420 XP Driver section

Touchpad: Same

Webcam drivers and manager: Again, from the site.

Wired network card: You guessed it, from the website.

Wireless network card: If you have the Dell Wireless card, you can get the drivers from the website. However, if you're one of the cool people, then you upgraded to the Intel 3945ABG wireless card, then you can find the drivers directly from the Intel website: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/Prod...ProductID=2259 (Chose your own flavor of XP)

Sigmatel STAC 92XX C-Major HD Audio Driver? YES IT IS! That's right, I have an XP 1420 that HAS REAL LIFE WORKING SOUND! I went through the Control Panel, and deleted that one weird PCI Device. I told Device Manager to refresh-- and voila! It worked.
Well, sorta. Because I did several things at once, so it might be a combination of things. But here's what I did:
1) Downloaded the drivers from Dell http://support.us.dell.com/support/d...&fileid=205136
2) Rebooted, because it wanted to
3) Got an error message after reboot
4) Swore
5) Delete the drivers as described above
6) Refreshed the drivers, as described above
7) As Windows found each new devices, I let it "Search online" for updated drivers
8) Watched with glee as Windows proceeded to find the drivers
9) Repeat steps 7 and 8 as needed

MediaDirect: Ah, the coveted puppy. I really wanted this to work. I mean, it still works from the computer-off state. But that's because I didn't nut-kick the MediaDirect partition when I installed Windows (and you didn't either. Did you???). But if I want to load anything INTO MediaDirect, I need the MediaDirect software running. If only I had the software on hand to reinstall it. Oh wait, that's right! WE ALL DO. Go ahead and grab you "Application: For Reinstalling MediaDirect 3.3". Throw it in your drive. Cancel the autoload. The go My Computer. Right-click on your DVD drive, and chose EXPLORE (NOT OPEN!). Go to WindowsMD3. Double click on Setup. There you go, MediaDirect. Not the partition re-creator or anything-- but the real, honest-to-Gabe software.

Oh yeah, and my Canada Only IR Remote works beautifully with MediaDirect.

This leaves me 99.9% done. I have a few things left to do, which I'll share as I learn:

1) Figure out how to get the MediaDirect button to launch the MediaDirect software while in Windows
2) Get the Wi-Fi Catcher working.
3) Get Dell QuickSet working (which may solve #2)

This id From Notebook Review .. I never try on it.. hope it helps for those who want to dual boot with XP and Vista

Session better or Cookies better in this case?

zuying1985 — Tue, 26 Sep 2006 02:34:27 +0800

I'm doing a part of blog system for mutiple account...

each member can own their blog, gallery, rss n so on..
and other member/visitor can view their blog n gallery oso...

currently i'm using 2 cookies which store username and user password ( to avoid login if user's cookie is existed)

now all the records of blog, gallery , rss n others are retrieve by the member ID ...

currently i'm using query string to pass the memberID to do the retriving process.
but i think this mayb not a good method..

so...the next i was think to use Session... but Session will auto Timeout after 20min(default) .. i know i can expand the timeout period or can make it last forever( i saw the code, it's looks a biz complex for me, i rather to choose other method) ..
coz, when a user leave a page for a long time, n after that come refresh the page, i may cause the error coz session is timeout.. i know mayb i can ask user to login again....

but current market for this kind of system such as friendster... din use session for this case... i'm often c session at use for transaction/ shopping cart...
so., is the Session is suitable in this case?

the another method i used to declare a cookie to store the memberId,, but the things i worried about is almost each page need memberID to do retrieve.. will that affect the processing speed during retrieving the memberID cookie to get record??

so.. i'm a little biz confuse in this case for which to use..
any sifu might giv me some suggestion?

but.. when i use browser like firefox, opera or IE by type the localhost address and the aspx file address.. the page is no problem to load... and login system is no probelm (means it can read the database path and retrieve record)

n after that i try to copy the address on the propertise window of the image,
n paste it to the address bar of the browser.. the image can be displayed..

so.. can i know wat actually the problem is?
