Eric Schmidt on Sergey Brin: ...he evaded my guidance. And as a result, built a multimillion-dollar business.

Personal Computing in Graphs

Looking at the chart below, it's mighty interesting how mobile computing has beaten the number of PCs shipped in such a short time. My heart goes to the Atari ST... my very first PC which I abandoned in favour of an Intel-powered PC almost 2 decades ago...

Historically Fake

I'm totally perplexed that part of the history lessons that I had gone through during my school days was conjured out of people's imaginations and this had to be my second blog post of 2012... the year the Mayans will invade us from space, harvest all our minerals and farm us like batteries to power they toys... or did I get that wrong, too?

Ahem, anyways, I had heard that Hang Tuah and gang were myths some time back but didn't believe it because they were historical heroes in our history books but now that it was made official, I rest my case. Hang  Tuah and gang shall go down in history like Wong Fei Hung and gang...
