Tired of my slow booting Windows Vista, I took a millenium leap by installing Linux Ubuntu 8.04 on my Sony VGN-CR11GH.
I’m a PHP webdeveloper, so everything I needs is there
Linux
Apache 2
MySQL 5
PHP 5
Subversion SVN
Vi text editor / Geany
And the interface is way much cooler than Windows Vista. Interested to give a try, go to http://ubuntu.com…or maybe with a small fee, I can install and setup Ubuntu for you. Leave the hassle to me ( Bazet 014-6412911 )

Whether you drive a two-seat hybrid or a three-ton SUV, chances are you can squeeze a bit more distance out of each gallon of fuel — and at today’s gas prices, an improvement of just one or two miles per gallon (MPG) can really add up. These ten fuel saving tips have served me well over the years, and they can help you improve your car’s fuel economy and take some of the sting out of high fuel prices. Most of these tips will give you a very slight increase in MPG — but use several together and the gas mileage improvements will really add up.

Tepat sangkaan saya, minyak naik bulan June 2008. Di bawah adalah artikel rasmi Utusan. Sehingga pukul 9.30 malam, keadaan di Putrajaya agak riuh rendah dengan kenderaan beratur untuk mengisi minyak di Presint 8,11,9,16 semuanya penuh. Kereta beratur sehingga 1 kilometer. Saya sendiri give up untuk megisi setelah 5 minit beratur……

Harga diesel turut dinaikkan sebanyak RM1 kepada RM2.58 seliter daripada RM1.58 sekarang.

Compact car is gaining momentum in Malaysia and word wide too. With soaring gas price recently, the only option to save fuel consumption is to buy compact car such as 2008 Nissan Cube. Nissa Cube is JDM only market, means the car has to be grey imported. So pay a visit to Naza showroom and grab this baby before the August gas price revision taking place. I heard 1 liter = rm3.50

Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has launched its Lancer Evolution X high-performance 4WD sedan in Japan.
The vehicle is offered in its domestic market in GSR trim level, with a number of option packages that can be tacked on, these being a high performance package, an exterior styling package and leather combination interior. Also available, a Premium Package, which combines all the above packages and adds 18-inch BBS lightweight alloy wheels.
The Evo X is also available as a RS competition base model, the latter coming with less comprehensive and simplified equipment specification to reduce weight to a minimum.
The California dreaming is over – Ferrari has finally pulled the wraps of its stunning new supercar!
These are the first pictures of the exciting California, which is set to be the star of this October’s Paris Motor Show. Boasting a new 454bhp V8, a slick shifting 7-speed dual-clutch transmission and folding hardtop, the Italian newcomer will be a driver’s delight.
Rear wheel drive Proton Wira anyone ? Yet another RWD project by Terato. Tengku Djan Proton Waja RWD powered by SR20DET should consider this as real threat.
If you watch TV3 recently, especially during peak hour ( Buletin Utama ), you’ll notive new Petronas new advertisement video about high revving BMW E60 M5 in the video. Since Petronas main partner in F1 racing is BMW, no doubt they will use BMW M5 as their ad campaign candidate.
Video Royal Marines Commando
Video ini disiarkan oleh Buletin Utama TV3 pada 26 May 2008 mengenai iklan tentera British yang menggunakan orang Melayu sebagai pengganas. Lihat dan tafsirkanlah sendiri.

Jika melihat gadget yang saya baru letak di sebelah kanan Blog Protonmania, harga terkini minyak mentah dunia ialah USD130 ( 28 May 2008 ). Harganya semakin naik dan naik , dan baru-baru ini kerajaan Indonesia telah menaikkan harga minyak sebanyak 30% ekoran kenaikan harga minyak dunia ( cruide oil price ). Desas desus mengenai kenaikan harga minyak di Malaysia kini sedang hangat diperkatakan. Baru-baru ini kerajaan telah menghalang stesen minyak menjual minyak kepada rakyat negara jiran yang berada dalam lingkungan 30km dari sempadan.
Spekulasi mengenai harga minyak akan naik pada 1 Jun 2008 juga sering diperkatakan oleh pengguna internet. Tetapi mungkin bukan pada Jun 2008 tetapi September 2008 ? Sebulan awal sebelum raya ? Ini semua hanya desas desus sahaja.
Mengapa harga minyak sedunia naik ? Banyak faktor, rakyat China dan India yang berbillion junlahnya telah mencapai taraf hidup yang membolehkan mereka memiliki kereta. Memiliki kereta bermaksud permintaan minyak yang meningkat sekaligus menyebabkan permintaan mengatasi bekalan. Di samping itu, krisis di negara pengeluar minyak dunia, Iran dan Iraq juga antara elemen penyubang utama.
Di forum Protonmania.com juga hangat memperkatakan spekulasi ini.
Asia’s own Monaco track is finally here in Singapore. Located 500km from Kuala Lumpur which is equal to 5 hours drive should be no problem for F1 racing enthusiasts to come there. The night racing at Singapore F1 Grand Prix 2008 will offer the spectators a whole new experience.
Proton Satria WRC ?
With recent success in F1 racing, Petronas should invest some of their motorsport funds into World Rally Championship. Maybe for a start, just enter the Junior WRC class. Since we in Proton Mania Networks, are more inclined to rally stuffs, we would like to see the same success in F1 racing reflected into WRC scene too.
Maybe
1. Team Subaru Petronas WRC
2. Team Volvo 240 GL Petronas
3. Team Petronas Prodrive Proton ( 3P ! )
Imagine a WRC Satria NEO with fulltime 4WD and a 300hp turbocharged 2.0L Campro engine driven by some Finnish driver ( the best driver always come from Finland, no doubt ).
Just a rant….
Interested to see 10secs Honda CRX ? Come join us at Sepang Drag Battle this Saturday at Sepang F1 International Circuit
