My Macbook Air is having hard drive problems. This is aside from the LCD bevel problems, the two dead pixels, the shorter battery-life, and extreme heat issues.

My MacBook had even more problems.

Who said Apple means quality? There isn’t much of a difference since Dell, Apple, HP, Sony, all are made by the same OEM/ODM companies anyway.

Piriform is incredible. They’ve got all this incredible software like CC Cleaner, Defraggler, Recuva, and Speccy. Sure you already have a Defrag software, but Piriform’s can defrag specific folders.

The Buddhist monks stood atop the jagged remains of a vocational school, struggling to move concrete slabs with pickax shovels and bare hands. Suddenly a cry went out: An arm, clearly lifeless, was poking through the debris.

But before the monks could finish their task, a group of Chinese soldiers who had been relaxing on the school grounds sprang to action. They put on their army caps, waved the monks away, and with a video camera for their unit rolling, quickly extricated the body of a young girl.

The monks stifled their rage and stood below, mumbling a Tibetan prayer for the dead.

“You won’t see the cameras while we are working,” said one of the monks, Ga Tsai, who with 200 others, had driven from their lamasery in Sichuan Province as soon as they heard about the quake.

“We want to save lives. They see this tragedy as an opportunity to make propaganda.”
