collapse College life - Posted by Kloplop321

First, I must say, College life is not High School life. You don't have as much free time as in High school, you will fail if you try to act like you do.
For me, even though I consider myself to be decent at math, Calculus is the hardest for me. I have over 100% in Computer Science, which to me isn't hard.
Its been a while since I last posted. Enough so that It snowed last night (though unrelated to me not posting)
I might post some more later. Its time to go.

collapse Mac Netbook - Posted by Kloplop321

Well, my friend in the Netherlands (Who I have worked with for a while) kept pushing me to get a specific netbook, just to use mac on it. I eventually did, but here's why:

  • Mac OS X is a good OS
  • It would be 'different' to have a macbook without having a macbook
  • Turns out I needed a cheaper computer to use while at college than I thought.

The total cost(including OS): ~ $300 USD. Got the netbook from ebay, and got the OS from best buy for $30. This is a perfect cost, as I plan to keep my desktop, and I know I will be only using it for 1 year, AND my parents are dealing with a very costly month with medical expenses, and unforeseen new house expenses.
Frustrations: Finding the latest guide for the latest version of Snow Leopard sold in stores(10.6.3). Turns out: no such guide exists, only for slightly older versions with some suggestions from others for the update.
this guide works perfectly if you replace the "NBI_083F dd Image"with this dd Image.
Anyway, enjoy the video and try yourself if you want. You'll need a Dell Mini 10v (1011) (you can't get it from Dell anymore), and OS X.



PS: Portal on Mac, with a netbook hardware sucks. Don't try.

This was done about a month ago, I need to record a new video of it in action.
I'm currently working on the editing system.

No, I'm not talking about the News Wire company, the Associated Press. I am talking about Advanced Placement tests.

Took 2 tests so far. One more later in the Week.
These are the tests I'm taking.

  • Govt. And Politics
  • Statistics
  • Literature


Tough tests. Harder and more strict than the ACT.
