In Depth: Getting connected: a history of modems - http://www.techradar.com/news...
Taking it back to the old skool ways of connecting to the net. My first modem was a 28.8Kbps in 1996. In 97 I bought (well, i convinced my parents to buy) a US Robotics 56.6KBps modem. Since 2002 I've been on Broadband and now rock with a 50MBps connection

@jaapwillem Whats the latest dSLR you're playing about with? I look forward to those photos. You should try to come to London before Xmas as the exchange rate is very favourable at the moment for ya! Not sure about Halloween yet but I might be meeting Pascaline, she will be in London for Halloween so I hope to meet her which will be cool. About you?

Nice photo mate! Well done! Do you have a wide angle lens or did you take that photo in sections?
- Ahmed Ibrahim
I love my hashtags indeed, hahaha the only way in Twitter to have a conversation. The pic is made from 7 other images all nicely mixed together. Great that you like it.

@appleaddicto it's worth watching a bit. i was expecting more from their using the power of their suits and also more drama. :-(

I have one sick 50MBPS internet connection :)
Na in this context 'sick' refers to 'awesomness' :) 50MBPS. Damn you guys are in the stone age!
- Ahmed Ibrahim

@melsmart i was supposed to see him in July in London :( so terribly sad!
I'm now waiting for the refund procedures to come through. I'd really like to keep the ticket (if it arrives) as a keep-sake. I'm still in denial about the tragic events. Why do the greats die young?
- Ahmed Ibrahim
@sweetsofgeorgia gay Paris was xcllnt thank you :D Didn't eat frogs legs but I ate snails and steak tartare. What are your plans today?
frog legs (fried ones) are delicious. it's the chinese resto that usually serve the delicacies here in the phils.:-)
- rommel
haven't had frog's legs for a while. snails are nice though :) ever tried?
- Ahmed Ibrahim

Recorded the Historic French Open Final. Who can tell me how transfer the data from my Virgin+ Box to my Mac?
dunno, maybe you can try with a toast program??
- Jaap Willem
i've searched a few forums apparently the USB port on my cable box is 'redundant'. Might have to plug it to a DVD recorder and then burn it directly.
- Ahmed Ibrahim
that's a pity... but then if you've burned it, u can rip it back again..
- Jaap Willem
How many software updates does Apple want me to install???
loads, I got last time 5 down my throat.. hilarious but not really ;) prepared for tomorrow??
- Jaap Willem
I think i had about 6 or 7. I turned on the Mac and then BAM! tons of updates to d/load! haha

Very nice shots indeed man. Do you use any photo editing suites? I bought Aperture 2 and have a workshop about it at my local Apple Shop next week.
- Ahmed Ibrahim
I do use Adobe photoshop Lightroom. Suits very well to my needs, I have to say. Aperture can't really be happy about yet.. Workflow for my pics are different..
