Super Mario Bros

Mario (マリオ?) is a fictional character created by game designer Shigeru Miyamoto. Serving as Nintendo’s mascot, Mario has appeared in over 200 video games since his creation. Though originally only appearing in platform games, starting with Donkey Kong, currently Mario appears in many genres of games, such as racing, puzzle, role-playing, fighting, and sports games, and many others. - Wikipedia

I copied the above short introduction for the most famous video game which has been interested so far - Super Mario Bros - I love Mario. It’s used to be my favorite game when I was a kid. I think that there were a lot of people like it too. So I make a collection of Mario Wallaper, just to share with you. All these wallpapers come from Flickr and DeviantArt

Apple Store (Vietnam)

Apple Computer official opens Apple Online Store, Vietnam. It’s a great news for Vietnamese fans who interest in Apple products like iPhone, iPod, and MacBook. This means Vietnamese people can buy and order Apple products from its website, please view below picture to see how profitable the Apple can bring.

I owned a white MacBook, which using T8100 Intel Core 2 Dual, 2GB of RAM and 120GB HDD,  at the time I bought it, it’s really expensive (~ $1200 ). In Vietnam, everybody loves Apple products, such as MacBook, iPod and especially iPhone, but the price is still high. Therefore, some people try to have one by buying it from somebody who can bring it in personally from foreign countries, it’s quiet cheaper than to buy it from FPT (Apple Authorized Seller). 

It’s can be seen easily that, Apple is trying to approach this potential market at the ASEAN. 

I’m interested so much in Apple products , at the moment I haven’t got an iPhone for my own yet and I wish that I will have one soon

Wordpress 2.7 Beta 2

The Wordpress version 2.7 beta 2 has just been issued today by Automattic, since the 2.7 version  there have been a lot changes. It’s easy to recognize from administrative section. All Information windows about your blog be well arranged which drag and drop can be made conveniently. You can determine whether what windows will be displayed through the “Screen Options” . In this new version you can easily find the “Quick Press” - this is the functional summary of Post that helps you write your posts quickly.

Menu system can be toggled, it is no longer appears on the top, but on the left side. In my opinion, this arrangement is probably comfortable.

You can refer new detail features from Wordpress Development blog. Although still in beta development progress, Wordpress 2.7 is worth for upgrading. Download from here.
