This is a detailed post so please bear with me. We used to have a 850VA pure sine wave inverter with an Exide 150AH Tubular battery which conked off a couple of months ago. With the old setup, we could run 3 fans, 2-3 tubelights and a 40" LED TV for about 2-2.5 hours without issues. Also, my...

So Comex 2012 is just a day away! I know there are a few members in Singapore, so just wondering what everyone is planning to buy. I am planning to get the ASUS RT-N66U router and a 2.5" external drive. Brochures are available on Hardwarezone. P.S: Any idea on ASUS warranty? Do their...

Next the Government will ask Facebook and Twitter to limit Indian users to 5 status updates a day. If that doesn't work, email is next up. Is there ANY limit to the Government's stupidity?

Having used a friend's Xperia S, I am really impressed by the overall package. If benchmark numbers and technical specs are what you are after, then the Galaxy SIII beats it hands down. But I feel the XS is a tighter package with an excellent screen, a great camera and at a cheaper price. ICS is...

I did think about it initially, but I need the main router to have Gigabit ethernet. Besides, my existing router is pretty old and I need a reason to upgrade :) @smnrock that is sad! If it doesn't have decent range, its ruled out. Still looking for alternatives. The Netgear WNDR3700 seems to...

Is the RT-N16 a good buy @ Rs.6000? Not available on flipkart currently, but on ebay: ASUS RT-N16 300 Mbps Gigabit Wireless N Wi-Fi Router with 3 Antenna Print Server | eBay

@Edrill, thanks for your response! Unfortunately, finding those specific routers is going to be hard, especially since the v1s are pretty old by now. And I will mostly order through flipkart, and will not have the luxury of verifying the version. Are these my only choices? If I don't find...

I currently have an almost 4 year old Buffalo WHR-G125 router running Tomato. I live in a two storey house, and until now, we were at the top floor. The router by itself doesn't have a very good range, but it wasn't bad either. Now I will be moving to the ground floor, and hence need to have a...

@ronnie_gogs, thanks a ton for the link! Just paid him :-) @Gannu thanks! Yea a SG TE meet would be fun!

Thank you everyone!

If you have the budget to go for the 1080p laptops, do not think twice. Having just bought a MB Retina, I can tell you that a higher resolution (and quality) display does make a difference. The text is sharper, colors just stand out and generally using the laptop becomes a delight. I didn't fall...

After a lot of consideration and waiting, its finally here! Introducing the new MacBook Pro Retina :) This is the base model with 2.3 GHz CPU / 8 GB RAM / 256 GB SSD. Paid SGD 2728 or ~1.2L INR after the education discount. The display is absolutely gorgeous, but this is overall, one of the...

Samsung 830 SSD 128GB @ $99 at Newegg today only!

Looking at the display number in the anandtech review, it seems to be pretty good to me. Is it THE BEST display available? Probably not, but I would say its right up there. And as far as the "Retina" branding goes, its just another marketing term. For me, the best thing Apple has done in the...

Anyone looking for a web developer with 2 years of experience? Not interested in big MNCs. Looking for a small, product based company. Please PM for resume.

The 13" MacBook Air is probably one of the best ultrabooks in the market today, if the limited capacity of the SSD isn't an issue.

Finding a laptop with a 7200 RPM HDD is going to be tough. Almost all manufacturers stick with 5400 RPM as it consumes less power. If that is not an issue, check out the Sony S14A.

@Animesh, thanks for the link. Unfortunately, the price is still higher compared to Singapore.

The MBP Retina starts from $2,988. Users eligible for education discount can get it at $2,728 online. Right now there is a 3-5 week waiting period if ordered online. Them more I want it, the more I'm scared about future maintenance costs. If something goes bust 2 years down the line, I can see...
