(Updated Jan 2013) As far as I know, the method below is the easiest to convert your Lenovo A1 from 2.3 Gingerbread to 4.0.4, without any need to use the ClockworkMod Recovery solution. I bought a new Lenovo Ideapad A1 (the model is A1-07 model (not the A1-107) at the recent PC show, and found that…
If you have a locked-down machine at your work place, as I do, then you will know the pains of having to work within the constraints of having only portable applications and if there is no portable versions of the application, you will be out of options. Being the ‘rebel’ as always, I wanted to…
It may seemed strange to you, but you and I are, to some extent policy-makers in one way or another in our lives. For example, when we make decisions on what activities to engage or not engage in when you go out with friends, you are making some policies about activities with friends. When you…

They unloaded their good off me, then damaged my coin slot or cut/force the attached chain to the back, in order to…

Having switched to fibre-broadband, I have enjoyed the faster upload/download connection compared to ADSL. However, it presented a new problem for my home. You see, the Wifi router used to be in my study, and all the PCs/notebook had the best connection in the study room. However, now that the Wifi router/home gateway is now…
After visiting Germany, I must say I loved the place. The journey brought us through the right mixture of city views and country sights. It was a great travel. Part 1: We started our adventure from Frankfurt the main city, down the beautiful Rhine river, and then the town of Heidelberg… Part 2: We ventured…

I came across a short article about Kampong Buangkok, a village or “kampong” tucked in the corner near the junction of Ang Mo Kio Ave 5 and Yio Chu Kang. So, packed with a camera and my trusty 18-200mm lens, I went down, to savour the last sight of the Singaporean kampong, which is soon…
