    Hi,

    It has been 8 years since I've renovated my house. Most of the furniture in my house are from Ikea and are still doing their job well. Recently I noticed that my billy bookcases are bending more and more due to the weight of the books they support and hence I think now is a good time to change them to better quality shelves. 

    Been trying to find premade bookcases in SG with the following requirements:

    • Modularity (ability to add on more units/shelves, either side by side or stack up)
    • Space saving (I have 1k++ comic books and my wife numerous novels and other books)

    One design which I saw while surfing online is (see attachment), but I can't seem to find any importers or shops selling anything remotely similar. Is going custom-made the only option to go in SG?

    advisable to use it over windows? my friend using it...have been raving about it....i wonder does it support tablet pc?

    First of all, Linux is open-source, and so does most of its stuff. If you are comfortable with opensource stuff (which is usually free), have knowledge above than just installation of softwares, firing up internet browser for general surfing and office applications, Ubuntu might be a good choice.

    Pros of Ubuntu.

    1) Free

    2) Linux usually has little to no virus attacks.

    Cons of Ubuntu

    1) Needs more knowledge to debug or fix issues on computer

    2) Not many games/software supports linux.

    Yes linux does support tablet pc, but as with other OS too, you might need to find the correct driver for it.

    well say rin ...

    actually I am those lazy person that don't install 3rd party software , all like to use default one (window media player , IE, can use can le) ... but this latest IE is really giving me a lot a lot of problem .... then friend ask me try safari .... din expect me to love it sia ... ha

    However my friend did say IE6 is very stable for window 7 wor .... but me only got vista (desktop) and XP(net book) so din really know how true is it

    IE8? I find that IE8 still sucks. Kinda forced to use code to make all my websites render in IE7 format when viewed in IE8 in order not to break them. Why is it that everytime I script out a website I will need to code in extra hacks just to get them to work/look/feel the same just for IE = =. Most other major browsers don't suffer this problem that IE has... (be it Opera, Safari, Chrome, Firefox)

    I'm still using XP sia. Wait till windows7 is more stable first before i make the jump. Vista not really worth using for me cuz from XP to Vista it feels more like a downgrade rather than upgrade. So resource hungry and full of bugs...

    Agreed in fact i love using firefox or chrome more than IE but the problem is that most of the plugins and website favours IE so sometimes we got no choice but to use IE :(

    Actually most of the websites now are not as updated. Quite a number of them are developed a number of years ago, when IE was still the dominant browser over the now-non-existant Netscape Navigator/Communicator. Furthermore during that time IE had better compatibility with asp. All these browser inconsistencies happened due to the "Browser wars", where the 2 companies (Microsoft and Netscape) tried to control the web with their so-called browsers. They introduced script/code tags that are not compliant with the other browser, and renders common standard codes differently.

    Hence up till now we can still feel the aftermath of it, even though the W3C (a body which standardises every web technology now) has come up with a standards which all our future web technology will adhere to.

    never use mac b4 ... not even mac software ,

    but after got the Iphone , I change my view on apple .

    Using Safari on my laptop now . Feel that it's much better then IE wor ....

    Any modern browser is better than IE 100%. IE is the suck~iest browser ever invented. Each succeeding version tried to fix the bugs of its predecessors but end up breaking more stuff. Cannot imagine that I'm still developing website compatibility for the dreaded IE6... maybe I should join the team of designers/developers to ban IE6.

    But is it a SOP to take out the washer ? then if it's just a washer problem Y the plumber that went to check yr house 1st didn't notice it ?

    aiyo .... actually now I also blur who should be resposible for it .

    scare poh joo say they should take out the washer while ho bee say "who know should take out washer"

    Hmm the common toilet mixer doesn't have the washer. The Poh Joo plumber took it out also to check. Quite an inconsistency I can say = =

    problem-plumbing01.jpg

    Washer with tape??? in common toilet tap. Poh Joo plumber says the washer itself should be black in color and not this. Poh Joo plumber said that the tape in time will spoil the tap when it breaks and gets into the internal mechanisms of the mixer.

    problem-plumbing02.jpg

    Broken washer with 2 pin-holes for water regulation. This is the culprit that made that wheezing sound, which is so loud that I can hear it at my front door as the tap is on over time. :(

    Also the reason why the water pressure of the shower head is so low.

    Wanted to give compliments to a shop, Lightings.com.sg for their excellent service and patience. In total they came down 3 times after delivering the lights. First time to change a light which is a wrong product type, Second to check on some lights installation and thirdly came over to check for the last time even though they are not the ones installing the lights.

    Kudos to them. Really good service and highly recommended for their lights. :3

    Cool, that area look like comics shop... u can collect rental and drinks for people to read your manga liao :P

    IKea stuffs really not good for heavy stuff...

    My study table from Ikea.. quite surprised it didnt Pik-char into half..

    My hubby stack his heavy textbook on the center with my laptop... 2 wks later the table top become valley shape..

    all visitors to my house was amazed and fasinated by the table :)

    Hehe yeah my wife told me about that too, collect rental and drinks. Nowadays if I have sometime to spare I'll just grab a book and sit there to read lolx.

    aiya dun say already le i wanted to "lighten" his load but he dun allow me to do so leh :(

    My load took me years to collect de leh. Earliest comic book on my shelf is Doraemon from the 1980s~~~.

    maybe u can try to print on another paper with the exact side, with a shade as close as possible to the background of ur vege.... so dat the white wont be so obvious.. :D

    PS: i like the Ikea Asker stuff alot.. please update if it doesnt hold up k!! heh... so dat i will think twice..

    Yeah true. Too long never do print liaoz. Also forgot that xerox will look much darker than on screen. Might need to change the picture saturation and do a reprint to match :)

    Speaking of Xerox~ing lolx. I remember the time when I went to the printing shop to print my cabbage. The layout artist and 2 customers (I presume are students/young designers) gave me that 'shocked' look when I ask to print my cabbage. They even asked me what the heck I use it for, zzzz. I cannot print anything I want meh, even if it doesn't look sleek and nice = =.

    Edit: correction is lettuce..... think I crave too cabbage too much liaoz~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Cabbage soup~~~~ :lol::P
