When a hard disk spoils, we can claim the warranty. They change new one.

But what if after that, the new hard disk spoils again (within warranty period), can we claim warranty again? Or do they only allow u to do it once?

Logitech mouse - serial number don't match

low7 — Mon, 13 Sep 2021 04:58:32 +0800

I bought a Logitech mouse on Lazada. The serial number on the box doesn't match the serial number under the mouse. Does that mean it's fake?

Also, they never give invoice. Do we need to personally request for it, then only they give? I remember last time I purchased an item that was "fulfilled by Lazada", I didn't request for anything, they automatically sent the invoice via email.

Chrome browser - a couple of questions

low7 — Wed, 26 Aug 2015 03:38:54 +0800

After using Firefox for a long time, I've decided to give Google Chrome a try. So far I've liked it. But there are a few things I would like to inquire.

Q1:
How do I open a Jpeg picture file?
In Firefox, I just have to go to File > Open File, then I just select the file.
But I can't seem to find the "Open" button in Chrome?

Q2:
I had multiple tabs open while browsing. Then I accidently click the "X" button at the top right corner and BOOM I lost all my tabs just like that.
In Firefox, when you accidently click the "X" button, a warning dialog box appears telling you that you are about to close multiple tabs.
Is there any way to make Chrome do the same thing?

Q3:
In Firefox, there's this add-on called "Video Downloadhelper". It's a very handy tool when it comes to downloading videos/mp3 from various sites.
Does Chrome have something similar like this?

Validity 365 - must top up RM30 in first 6 months?

low7 — Wed, 01 Jul 2015 03:00:01 +0800

[@#Hotlink]
I remember last time I subscribe to validity 365, they say on hotlink site, you must top up RM30 within the first 6 months.

But now I noticed they didn't mentioned it anymore on their site.
http://www.hotlink.com.my/en/plans/validity-365.html (click on FAQ)

So, did Hotlink got rid of this requirement? I don't have to top up RM30 anymore?

Prison Break - best tv show I've seen

low7 — Mon, 28 Mar 2011 22:38:55 +0800

Astro just finished showing Prison Break Season 4. Yeah I know Astro is a bit slow. But anyway, I really enjoyed this tv show. I've never come across a show where I just couldn't wait to see the next episode. I'm glued to it week in week out. The excitement just keeps building. The first 2 seasons was amazing. For season 3 & 4, I must admit it did lose a little bit of that spark but was still good nonetheless.

In the season 4 finale, they wrote "4 years later" then they showed Michael Scofield's grave. In the next episode, Scofield is still alive & he's trying to break Sara out from the female prison. I was really confused! So I decided to check Amazon site & I found out that there's a DVD called "The Final Break". It's just a short DVD, not a full season. Now I understand what's going on.

It was sad to see Michael Scofield die. After following this show religiously for 4 seasons, I must say I felt kinda emotional at that moment. I thought the hero will continue to live til' the end. Another thing, I'm really in love with Sara. Am I the only one who thinks she's hot? As for T-Bag, he got what he deserved..........ended up in prison all over again.

Overall, this is the best tv show I've seen, hands down!!!
