Staircase handle?

Posted by KhoKing on Monday Jun 1, 2009 Under House Reno

I think the existing one in my house is very rough and does not look nice.

Search the internet and found some nice one.

I think it is the chrome connector that makes the difference.

Oral B Toothbrush – Year 2005 production still selling on rack!!!

Posted by KhoKing on Monday Jun 1, 2009 Under Rojak

Went to Jaya Jusco to buy a toothbrush, as usual, Oral B.

Bought one, RM4.90, Vision model.

When checking out just now at home, very shock to see that the toothbrush production date is year 2005!!!

Zoom in!

Though the expiry date is 10 years from the production date, but how come a toothbrush that is over 4 years 5 months old be still on the rack? If the one I bought now is 4 years 5 months OLD, is this model still in production or they are simply clearing the old design model / stock at RM4.90?!

Hmm…must check out the production date next time when buying toothbrush too. I think it is bad to sell such an old product on the rack.

(By the way, it is MADE IN CHINA.)

Using my Sony 40″ LCD TV as my computer monitor?

Posted by KhoKing on Monday Jun 1, 2009 Under Computer / IT

Yes, current LCD TV can be used as a computer monitor, by connecting to your CPU or notebook directly via a VGA cable.

However, is it really workable and able to replace your REAL computer LCD monitor?

Not really. When I connect my Dell D800 to my Sony 40″ LCD, the highest resolution that it can support is only 1024 x 768px, which is pretty low and not the highest resolution my D800 can deliver (1280x 800). The screen size also does not go full to the Sony TV.

Refresh rate wise, not really sure but I can see lines flicker around the TV. I supposed it might be less than 60Hz.

So, my simple conclusion is…you can connect your LCD TV to your computer, but it can’t replace your computer LCD monitor or exisiting monitor on your notebook. It is good to watch movie, simple internet accesss, relax work, but definitely not for the serious work.
