my pc now boasted a 1.3GB memory thanks to Jelita who was kind to get me a 1GB Kingston DDR400. The price diff wasnt much, only a couple of bucks. But the postage would be costly if i were to get it here.
a Billion BiPac 7402VGP is also a new family member in my household, replacing the old 5100w that is nearly defunct. ADSL2+ is officially in the house! i barely able to hide my excitement, the moment the package arrived early in the morning.
tech buyers and gadgeteers, can i just say that staticice.com.au is the bomb!
on a slightly market-oriented note, i have been following the unbelievable strengthening of IDR in the past week or so, esp against the AUD (which now suffers a 17month low). The IDR has never been this strong in the past 2 years. Rumour has it that there are fresh investments coming to the country in the upcoming weeks. Plus, the govt now seems to be doing a 180-turn on its proposal to raise the basic electricity rate. But will Bernanke raise the Fed? That’s the million dollar question! (well, Wall Street is unanimous that the Fed will until at least May). Bank Indonesia on the other hand, is likely to reduce the rate to simulate the economy futher after being dampen by the high inflation caused by reduced oil subsidies.
I hope the trend for AUDIDR continues South for a little longer!
