Just less than two hours from now, another much awaited fight between two great fighters, dubbed as the “Lethal Combination“, Manny Pacquiao will battle it out with the Mexican - American David Diaz.

If Pacquiao wins this match then it will go down in the history books as he will be the first Asian to hold four world crowns in four weight division as well the first Filipino to reign in the 135-pound class.

Preliminary fights will start at 8PM EST / 5PM PST (8AM PH time) and the main match should be starting after 2 hours or so. I’ll be watching it live again for FREE as usual. :)

I have read a lot of reviews from different products from different people. Some are very informative while some are pretty biased but from time to time, you’ll find something that will make you smile. Now keep in mind that this is an actual review from a user of Amazon.com about Ubuntu.

By Ernesto Granillo III (Riverside, CA USA)

I have been using computers for well over 4 years now and can say that this was one of the worst games I had ever purchased. For one, in order to even install the game you have to completely ERASE ALL YOUR DATA! I did not know this when I installed and lost almost all of my hotmail messages. Second, I was really suprised that this did not run on my wife’s apple macintosh. In this day and age, is it really acceptable that software only run on dell computers, but not on apple or even IBM’s? Well, I always try to look at the glass half full, so I continued installed and found that not only had my start menu had moved to the top, but all my programs had been moved around. I couldn’t even find the “Notepad” word processor. I finnally gave up when I couldn’t find limewire or internet explorer installed anywhere, so I gave up and threw my computer away and bought a brand new laptop instead.

A very unique review from a guy with “well over 4 years” of using computers wouldn’t you say? I’m not sure if this person is really serious about his review but one thing is for sure, this is one of the funniest review I stumbled on the net.

First of all, I’m sorry for the lack of updates and for not able to reply back to comments left on my blog. As much as I wanted to, my online activity is limited since my main rig was out of commission and my Internet connection was also down (most of the time) thanks to my no good cable Internet provider - Destiny Cable.

I moved back to my original broadband provider Bayan DSL, which I’m happy that they activated my DSL line within just 2 days upon submitting my request. So far, I’m satisfied with the reliability I’m getting through them unlike when I was still using Destiny’s crap connection. Sure, I’ll miss out the faster net connection but who would want a fast Internet connection if its down most of the time? I’m sure no one would right?
