The story of Hen and Apple 母鸡与苹果的故事

This post is nothing to do with Animal and Fruit, it is all about why i became a die hard Apple Fans, and the history when i became a switcher.
But i need say this first, i’m not showing off what i have, because everyone can have it, just depend they want it or not.

这篇的内容与动物和水果无关,只不过是分享我为什么会成为Apple的死忠迷,和我转换Mac的历史。
但我要事先声明,我不是炫耀,因为任何一个人要拥有都可以,分别在于他们的选择。

My first iPod (2004)

The very first Apple’s Product that i bought is 20GB white iPod during year 2004 when i still worked in Singapore. It is my 1st iPod and i love it so much.

我买的第一个苹果产品就是他们的白色20GB iPod,在2004年当我还在新加坡工作时买的。它是我第一个iPod也是我最喜欢的。

If you carry this thing out, i think people will wondering why you carry such bulky mp3 player, may be they thought it is an external hard disk. However, it is still sexy as it is, it just too old to hook up with iTunes.

现在如果还拿来用,我觉得人家会认为你干嘛带一个那么笨重的音乐播放器,可能还以为是外接硬碟。虽然如此,它还是很性感的,只是它太老了,连iTunes都会嫌弃它了。

My first Powerbook G4 (2005)

This is the most expensive computer that i bought in my life, until today. Because during 2005, it cost me SGD 3,799.00!  During that time it was very powerful laptop, but now it just a very old computer that can’t do much. I ever think of sell it to someone else, but i just can’t do it. It mean a lot to me. Retired on 2008. Now it is still alive, can only work as printer server or something which is not very heavy duty. I hope it can still last for another 2 years.

Because of this Powerbook, i was totally became a Mac lover and supporter, i could get myself back to Windows or Microsoft.

这是我一生中买到最贵的笔电(到今天),因为在那个时候,它的市价是 新币 3,799!在那个时候它是很强的笔电,但现在也只能拿来做很基本的工作。我有想过把它给卖了,可是就是做不到,因为它对我很有意义。在2008年退休了,现在还活着,只是拿来做Printer server或一些比较轻便的工作。我希望它还可以继续活着,至少两年吧。

因为它的缘故,我成为苹果的忠实支持者+爱护者,已无法再倒回去微软或视窗。

My first Macbook (2008)

This is my current Macbook and i like it so much, it is use for replacing my Powerbook G4, as it is running Core2Duo with 4GB DDR3 RAM. Which is much more powerful than before. Although there are numbers of new Macbook pro right now, i still can’t find any reason why i need to upgrade now. At least within these two year, i don’t think there is neccessary to upgrade. It is first batch of Unibody Macbook during 2008 – 2009.

这是我现在使用中的笔电,我很喜欢它,它是取代我Powerbook的笔电,Core2Duo 4GB DDR3 RAM,比以前强大很多。虽然现今苹果有很多新版的Macbook pro,但我还是找不到理由去升级。至少在这两年不会吧。它是第一期的Unibody Macbook (08-09年)。

My first iPhone (2G) (2008)

You couldn’t understand how painful and the fun of jailbreaking first generation iPhone and the earliest firmware, especially if you are new iPhone user start from 3G. It is the most fun and best smartphone that i ever have (apart from it’s limitation, it is still my favorite). I’m regret to sold it, i should keep it as media player at home. Whatever, i missed it.

你不会明白越狱第一代的iPhone的早期固件有多辛苦,尤其是那些从iPhone3G开始入手的朋友. 虽然如此,它还是我拥有过的手机当中最好玩最聪明的手机(除了它的限制,它还是我最喜爱的)。我后悔把它给卖了,应该把它保留起来,在家做音乐播放器也不错。

My iPhone 3GS (2010)

You might wondering why i only iPhone 3Gs by year 2010 but not 2009? Because our Digi (local telcor) only brought in by April 2010. And I’m supporting Digi all the time, so i’m not going to sign up with Maxis even it is arrive last year. And currently I’m still using it, and i can’t find any reason why i have to upgrade to iPhone4 yet.

你可能会想我为什么今年才入手3GS而不是去年?因为我们的Digi(本地电讯服务商)今年四月才把iPhone3Gs带进来。而我又是Digi忠实支持者,所以我不打算与Maxis签约,就算它去年就有了。我现在还在使用3Gs,还找不到什么理由去升级iPhone4。

My Time Capsule 500GB (2010)

I like this Time Capsule wireless-N (Dual channel) router, it is pretty easy to setup and using it with wireless backup with Time Machine, it just make my life more easy and keep my file backup all the time when i’m working. It doesn’t cost me that much as i bought it with offered price from a IT Fusion.

我喜欢这个Time Capsule 无线调节器,它很容易安装,使用它加上Time Machine来做无线备份,真的让我可以轻松的工作也不怕资料遗失,它价钱并不贵,是以促销价买下来的。

My Apple wireless keyboard and Mighty Mouse Magic Mouse

I never think of i will go and buy Apple Wireless Keyboard and Magic Mouse, because these two stuff is bloodly expensive than normal keyboard that you could find in the market. But because of friends, i bought these two stuff are considered cheaper than Market price.

这个真的很要命,我没想过会去买Apple 键盘,因为价钱比一般的键盘贵好多。但因为朋友的缘故,这键盘买得算满便宜。

Same as this sexy mouse, can you imagine both of these accessories going to cost you RM560? Would you buy? I won’t, but because of some reason, it only cost me RM300 to bought this two Apple’s product. RM300! Would you buy? For me i definitely can’t resist it~

But Magic Mouse is really useful, i like the bouncing respond when you scrolling from anything, and the touch features on the surface, that is just something you can’t find from other brand’s products.

那很性感的滑鼠也是一样。你可想象这无线键盘与滑鼠加起来的市价是马币560吗?我哪里买得下手?后来因为朋友的缘故,两个加起来马币300,你买吗?我 这个苹果死忠迷肯定受不了诱惑~

Magic Mouse还真好用,我喜欢它那有拖放感觉的回应,尤其是当你在Scrolling浏览网页时,还有它那与Touch Pad类似的触按式功能,用起来感觉很不同。

My current Apple family

These are all Apple’s products that i have. I think I’m completely poisoning by Apple.

这是我现有的苹果家族,我看我是中毒太深。

    请问现在iphone 3gs 和iphone 4在马来西亚的价码是多少啊?

    • http://henstudio.com Hen

      iPhone4现在还未有任何确定的市价,可能九月会有答案,市场上卖的都是从别的国家买了带进马来西亚的,如果你现在买,市价可能RM3,000以上!
      按一般iPhone在市场的定价,到九月真正在本地市场上售卖,我猜市价应该是RM2,500左右吧*如果无绑约(No Contract).

      也许你可以留意Digi/Maxis的消息,两家公司都在拼命做促销,会有不错的配套也不一定。

      iPhone 3Gs现在的市价应该是RM2,000-2,200左右吧 (Without contract)
      有Contract的价钱请参考这里:
