Got my new Nikon D90 DSLR camera two days ago to replace my Nikon D80. I am having so much fun with it! I am planning to do a write-up about it, but I should include some nice photos and videos and I haven’t had a chance to take some really good ones yet. Have been really busy with work and preparing for my trip to Zamboanga. I’m going to Zamboanga tomorrow to visit my aging grandfather. Will be staying there for a week.

For now, I leave you with this - a photo of my Nikon Speedlight SB-600 flashgun.

“The world’s thinnest notebook”. This is what Apple claims its latest tech toy to be. Having a dimension of 12.8′ (width) x 8.94′ (depth) x .76′ (height) (or 32.5 x 22.7 x 1.94 cm), this 3.0 pound (1.36 kg) notebook really does give new meaning to the term “notebook computer”. Time and time again, Steve Jobs and his team has proven that the mantra “less is more” applies very well to industrial design and make for very sexy and very cool products.

It is also reasonably priced, retailing at $1799 you get a small, light machine that packs a lot of punch: Intel 1.6GHz Core2 Duo processor, 80GB hard drive space, an LCD screen capable of supporting up to 1280×800 resolution, and the all new super shiny Mac OS Leopard X, among other things. What more can you ask for?

My only gripe is that it does not come with an Ethernet port so the user ends up having to rely on WiFi for internet connection — which is fair enough given the purpose of the machine is to be ultra portable, but an Ethernet port would have been nice as a backup. On second thought, forget the Ethernet port. Steve Jobs is a mad genius. Hail, hail.

As parting word when I first heard of “MacBook Air” I was going to come up with jokes but then I saw it and was somehow speechless.

Top notebook manufacturers Sony, HP and Dell were reportedly working on equivalents, dubbed the Sony VAIO “Feather”, HP Pavilion “Paper”, and the Dell Inspiron “Tissue”. Representatives from the three companies refused to comment on the naming convention.

… so I came up with this.

Supposedly came from AI but I found this on the Honda Club forums. They’re saying that it took a year for this to become a reality. Kudos to the one who made this!

Don’t miss the sweet little video after the jump. Enjoy!

They say that the owner lives in Pacita (San Pedro, Laguna, Philippines). Just in case the genius who made this is reading — man, give me a lift!
