DDR = Computerless for at least 2 days!

Haha, Well, aren’t I smart? My sister got new RAM over the weekend, and so she had no use for her old spare 2GB of RAM. Since my computer only had 1GB at the time, I decided to “upgrade” since we had no other real use for the RAM. I pull my old RAM out, put the new RAM in, turn computer on, doesn’t load. I put old one back in. Won’t load. I tried all sorts of different combonations and my computer failed to load. So, I left my computer alone for the rest of that night, and took my computer to my local computer guy yesterday to see what was wrong. Turns out, my slot was made for the older DDR, while the new RAM I was trying to put in was DDR2. Haha. Fun… So, now I have to get a new motherboard and I’m computerless… (I’m on my sister’s computer right now)

So, while I’m here, and since I’ve been unable to make a blog post recently, I was unable to say Happy December! Last month of 2008… Haha, Cameron managed to visit my blog recently! *Is extremely surpirsed*. Shame on you Matthias, for not have visited my blog yet. Shame… Although he did provide me with this awesome fact/theory and how cats have 9 tails. “No cat has 8 tails. Cat has 1 more tail than no cat. Therefore, Cats have 9 tails.” GENIUS! Oh, and Coby managed to disprove the theory that “What you don’t know can’t hurt you”. Damn Coby thinks! (That’s a good thing by the way… despite the use of the word “Damn”) Although, under the right circumstances, “What you don’t know can’t hurt you” doesn’t work, however, when relevant, I will continue to use this phrase!

Oh, since Jesse bought himself a 2GB Samsung S2 a while ago,(the one also nicknamed “the pebble”) he has recently been testing out the battery life, and was disappointed to find that it didn’t last much longer than 6 hours, despite the fact that it says 10. Since my pair of earphones have died recently, I needed a new pair. And as a result, I thought; “meh, what the hell?” I like Creative’s products. They can occasionally be unreliable, however their designs I find are mostly very nice and smooth! Thus, in our household, we only seem to have Creative products when it comes to Mp3 players. No iPods! =) I have the Creative ZEN Multimedia Player, my sister has the ZEN Neeon Mp3 player, and the newest addition, my Creative ZEN Stone! =D

Since they were cheap, I bought myself the Creative ZEN Stone. Buying the stone itself would have cost $36, while for some reason, at the same store, the ZEN Stone + Travelsound kit cost $35… Heh, so I got me a pair of portable speakers for the ZEN stone too! Along with the indednted earphones that I had planned to buy. =D I really like the design of the ZEN Stone, and I struggled to choose Black or White. I ended up choosing black, and so now, I shall have to test the battery life of the ZEN Stone. It claims 10 hours but we’ll see. Although another thing I am excited about, is how the speakers come with batteries! Most batteries that are provided, are crappy ones that last less than 5 minutes, but Creative provided Energizer batteries! =D So, I’ll have fun with my Creative ZEN stone for now, while my computer is dead… Fun.
