Our badminton club member Wei-Han Liu found this video. Pretty cool. I was there to watch games and bought a pair of shoes, but not in the video. Ronny could have used some free promo… LOL

I really hope the school that we play badminton in does not close or close early today so I can try my newly bought badminton shoes.

Apple announces the Time Capsule today at Macworld 2008.

I returned an Airport Extreme 2 months ago because it kept dropping my Macbook after waking from sleep w/o power plugged in. It was a very frustrating experience, so I went back to the DI-524, although it also drops my Macbook whenever I turned on my Wii. But I only have to turn Airport off and on and it works again. The Airport Extreme worked for 30 seconds, then I turned it off/on, worked for another 30 seconds, turned off/on,... The firmware is a piece of junk.

Now if Time Capsule does not have the same problem with Airport Extreme, I will probably get one to replace my crappy NAT and get a 500GB HD for Time Machine.

Airport Extreme $180 500GB HD ~$100

So Time Capsule is priced much more reasonable than the Macbook Air, but only if it actually works and doesn’t drop connections.

Apple announces Macbook Air today at Macworld 2008.

At first, the coolness factor had me regretting not waiting to delay my Macbook purchase, but after learning that $1799 only has the 4200rpm 80GB HD and you have to shell out $3098 for a 64GB SSD. I am relieved :)

However, seeing it come out of an envelope was extremely cool. I do dislike the black keys a bit tho. I thought making the whole thing aluminum would be more cool. Biege => black => white => aluminum => black. Huh?

I’ve been watching the Wizards for 13 years and I’ve never seen another gutsy performance like this one. They beat the Celtics on Saturday night in a playoff atmosphere type of game with defense, intensity, and execution throughout the game and made clutch shots and free throws when it counted most. And you know what?

They came right back and did the same thing again in Boston to single-handedly gave the Celtics their first losing streak of their season.

And they did it all without one of their all-star in Gilbert Arenas.

IMPRESSIVE!!!

Seriously, people, do check out the Wizards because they are way better than the press has given them credits for. If Caron Butler and Antawn Jamison are not all stars in this year’s game, I will boycott the game, period. Along with everyone else on the team and the coaches, they are doing it all while Gilbert is trying to come back. Just imagine how great we can be when Gilbert comes back. OMG!

Oh, stop saying we are a better team w/o Gilbert. Fans nowadays constantly try to find excuses to trade this and that guy or to fire the coaches. Fans are fans. GMs and GMs. Let Ernie Grunfeld continues to do his magic for us.

I am just one happy man.
