I saw this computer case today at the ASUS dealer and it sooo wanted me to get a PC. It looks really cool and aerodynamic plus it comes in 3 funky colors.

The case is called the Vento 3600 and its available on Amazon for only $149. At the dealer in Kuwait it costs KD100! And I thought only Mac dealers in Kuwait were expensive… [Link]

More microwave meal reviews on the way just as soon as I have time to write them. Todays review is for a cool cheese burger meal thats meant for kids. I saw it in the freezer and it looked good so I figured so what if its meant for kids I wouldn’t mind a cheese burger meal, so I got it. This “Kid Cuisine” consists of one cheese burger, some fries, corn, and fruit snacks.

Preparing the meal was interesting. Firstly you need to remove the fruit snacks, the burger bun and the slice of cheese from the tray. You then heat up the rest of the tray for a few minutes, when thats done you place the burger in the bun with the slice of cheese and you put it in the tray and continue heating up the meal. When its done you put the fruit snacks back in the tray and voila!

Now you know how the actual meal never ends up looking like the picture on the box, surprisingly this meal actually looked very similar. I love the blue tray, it looks really funky. The whole thing actually tastes pretty good also. The burger was juicy, I really loved the fries and the corn tasted like corn. The only thing I didn’t eat was the fruit snacks since Nataly finished them all so I guess those must have been good. The only problem I saw was that the burger was a mini burger which isn’t very filling. The price for the whole meal was also 950fils which basically put it head to head with a McDonalds kids meal except with McDonalds you get a bigger burger, a coke and a toy. I would love to give this meal a 4 out of 5 but the price brought it down to 3.5 out of 5.

You can now watch your favorite TV shows online, including Sopranos, Joey, Arrested Development, Chappelle Show, MacGuyver, South Park and more. The service was free before but now only a handful of shows are free (Simposins and Ninja Turtles for example). But if you want to watch all the shows its only 8$ a month, not expensive at all.

Update: Anyone remember iCraveTV? I never was able to watch any of it since it required atleast 56kb connection and I was still on 28.8. That was cool, the site used to stream Fox and other channels live online before it was shut down. Nothing similar is available today.

Shiira is a web browser written in Cocoa. It uses the KHTML rendering engine provided by Apple’s Web Kit. Since this is the same rendering engine used by Safari, HTML content rendered by Shiira will look the same as in Apple’s own browser. Its pretty compact at only 2.5MB and has some cool features… its only 2.5MB! [Link]

Note: Mac Only

Update: Ok I have decided to make Shiira my primary browser for the next few days. So far its better then Safari and a lot quicker and lighter then FireFox. One major disadvantage is that the WordPress admin area isn’t very compatible with Shiira or Safari.

I have never used the PNG format for anything. I find it useless since Jpeg and Gif do the job a lot better so I was pretty pleased to find this website that actually proves this. PNG might be better file format but the files are much much more larger then Jpeg and Gif which doesnt make it very practical. [Link]
