It has been the end of a week. I'm kinda proud of myself, of the things i managed to accomplish without feeling the need to really 'relax'. I knew i'm gonna need some rest after the Singapore Marahton anyway. So, might as well get some things done before that. But not that the week has almost ended, i feel a bit of dissapointed too.  I REALLY need to blog about what happened today:

MY laptop's webcam and battery were faulty and so i decided to go down to the fujitsu service centre to see what can be done. Well, i was also on my way to collect the goodie bag and stuff for Singapore Marathon. When i went to the centre, I found out that they charge 80 bucks just to take in and see what's wrong with my comp. Now think about what i can do with that 80 bucks. I can

1. buy a new webcam (possibly better than the one that my laptop came with) to install it myself,  AND
2. Get my poor laptop a new battery

And mind you, that 80 bucks doesn't include GST and it's just DIAGNOSIS. i.e I'll have to came back in 2-4 business days to know what is wrong with it (which i already know, camera hardware and the battery). And after this, i'll be charged MORE for the remedies needed. Oh, and that 80 bucks diagnosis is free of charge if the laptop is covered under the warranty period. And it's not just fujitsu. I went around to look at other places nearby too, and some of them were worse. I'm really thinking that setting up a service centre is not such a bad idea. It's probably a better idea to keep it open at night time and sundays. 

Welcome to the new age of technology. this is the age where it is consultation for your computer is more than twice an average clinic's consultation :P
