Introduction | 简介
My laptop which having problem auto shutdown quite a bit finally refused to start.
I checked out a youtube video and figure out how to open up the laptop. Then I ripped out the hard disk.
我的手提电脑有问题有一段日子了。自动关机很多次。最后还拒绝启动。 上网到youtube 找到个视频学会了如何从底面拆开电脑。然后我拔掉了硬盘。
Meanwhile, some music for you to enjoy as you read. This piece is part of Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons, particular the first of the 4 violin concertos, called Summer.
让大家继续读的时候,欣赏一点音乐。这件作品是维瓦尔第的“四季”的一部分 - 4小提琴协奏曲中的第一首,名为“夏天”。

Action | 行动
A trip to Sim Lim Square and speak to friendly guy who help to unscrew the last screw on the hard disk which I could not take out. Then bought a hard disk enclosure and he showed how simple to popped it in. No screws needed. Back at home, tested it and all data is there. So, good $25 spent saving a lot of time restoring from backups.
去 了一趟森林商业中找位友好的店员帮助,拧下在硬盘上我搞不定的螺钉。然后买了硬盘外壳。他还很快的帮我装好。没需要上螺丝。回到家,查看所有测试数据是在。$25 花的好。省了很多时间不用找从备份来还原。
So, goodbye to the not so trusted HP Split X2. Time to get another one. Definitely not a HP anymore since I know they closed their service centre in Singapore.
所以,跟这不可依靠的电脑道再见了。是时后找新欢。绝对不是 HP 牌子了,因为我知道他们关闭在新加坡的服务中心。
Good thing is there were two tech shows in Singapore starting Thursday through this weekend. I spent time looking for bargains gathering brochure and went back the next day and saw this. Savings of at least $100 from the day before. That's good.
还好在新加坡从星期四到周末用兩個科技展。我花时间找便宜,收集很多传单。隔天回去看见这。前一天至少$100。好极了。

Another good thing about tech shows is there are more freebies. They were giving mouse, wireless speaker, antivirus and USB drive. I had no use for the speaker and traded it for a few more USB drives though not of very high capacity, I was hoping to get Linux running on it.
科技展的一个好处是有会有很多的免费赠品。他们给滑鼠、 无线音箱、 防病毒软件和 USB 盘。扬声器对我来说没什么用。用它交换了多几个USB盘虽然不很高的容量。我希望能用来运作Linux。
"In Search of Incredible". Found it and brought the bag of trophy home.
"In Search of Incredible" 是 Asus 的标语可翻译成"寻找令人难以置信"。我把寻到的胜利品带回家。
Quickly unbox the laptop. Nothing fancy. Just the device, power cable and a USB to LAN adapter.
快拆开盒子拿出笔记本电脑。没什么特别。只是电脑、电力电缆和USB至网络适配器。
Also bought a user license of Microsoft Office that comes with a free mouse that is nicer.
此外买了一个用户的微软Office。还送个较美的滑鼠。
Quickly do the initial setup.
花点时间尽快做点基本设置。
