Pikom PC Fair 2007 (Miri)


I'm so busy and yet I feel the urge to blog. Just let me get free with my keyboard will you? Let me enjoy the moment alone between me, the cpu, monitor and keyboard. I need to talk (blog).

Sorry CC. Promise I'll do the tag in my next post yah. I got to get ideas to blog like a drama queen first mah~

I went to Miri yesterday, just to have a great day with my gigi-besi. See, he's not the only one who make sacrifices doing trips just to see his chalie, I do the same too leh.

Shopping is never seldom my first choice of things to do in Miri. I still will go Bintang plaza (Parkson) and Boulevard those, but I wouldn't stay in a boutique or shoe shop for hours (Girls who can do it, I salute you!). But... I can stay for hours in Popular :p (Stealing ideas and reading free books. Hahahhaha)

We passed by the Miri stadium and saw the big big canvas banner hanging there advertising about the PC fair. Then I asked Bobby if he would mind if we dropped by there later to kaypoh. I wanted to see if there's any difference between Brunei and Miri's PC fair.


Miri Stadium

The Entrance

Since it is held inside the indoor stadium, it kind of remind me of BITEX 2002 of Brunei that is also held inside our national stadium.

To be honest, I had already prepared myself not seeing much difference in them. It's never going to be like any of those in Taiwan, KL or Singapore with sexy show girls in skimpy cloths anyway. No freebies, only leaflets and product brochures.

No surprise at all.

Pikom PC Fair

But I do like the idea of having those small stalls with tables and chairs provided for elders to take a rest, while their children go roam around surveying for their dream laptops.


Just after a few walks, I realized something. 70% of the booths are from Boulevard IT Superstore! Gila.... I think they just moved their whole shop there.


Bombarded by the below sign board

The thing is, if there's no attractive price offered to the public, why waste money and time in moving them in to the fair, when people can just go to the shop?

And also, exhibit us the latest technology la.

I know Brother has a good range of printers available... But why sell the sewing machine there? Should know that those who went there are interested in technologies, and not some auntie carrying their groceries basket what.


[Random Photos of what is sold there]

Cameras and Camcorders
Vaio

Sorry, I didn't saw the pink one that makes every kawaii girls shout in high pitch, "AI!!!! SO CUTE! I LIKE! ITS PINK! I WANT"


PXP & I-pood
*LOL*

Accessories & Batteries

Pasar Malam style of jual pisang,
I mean MP3/ 4 players hanging up there.


Nothing new, nothing surprising.

Except for the below item... I'd been dying to touch it ever since I saw the brochure in the Mall's PC Fair last two week.



From the inside, it does look no difference from the rest of the brands, but wait till you see the cover. Ter-amazed!


See that? It has an external auxiliary display on its cover which offers easy access convenience.

How clever!

Now, this is what I call Sexaaaaaaaay~


Price RM6,988. CFKing is selling it for $35xx or $36xxI can't remember. If only they have a white one for this.

Being able to touch and play around with laptop had made my trip to the fair worthwhile. I love ASUS! (Blame it on the working experience I had giving the chance to have the first hand play with the latest Asus products.)

And I know some guys out there drool over the below item.

ASUS LAMBORGHINI VX2

And oh oh, I saw a guy wearing bright pink with green. I just need to take a shot of it. I don't want to give any negative comment about this, else I know I'll offend some really sensitive and fragile people out there and I really don't want any hate comments here.

*mouth zipped*

I'm a coward, I admit.

Have you seen the new TV commercial of KFC's rice. The one the guy go and say, "Mou sik fan ah?" (Don't eat rice ah?).

I went to KFC and saw the display of it. I get so curious about it that I must go and touch and play with it. Hehheeee. Like a kid I know.



I think it's real rice. But I don't know what thing they use to stick them together hard like a rock.



And I asked Bobby to take a picture of me with the rice. Eh, a lot of people passing by you know, even Bobby gets a bit malu. What to do, the girlfriend like that one, he just need to get use to it.





Look so different from the previous sexy pose right? Hahahaa. This is the real Nonnie.
