英式的黑色幽默

By admin, July 23, 2013 7:15 pm

If you like British sitcom and enjoy the special sense of humor, then this is definitely for you.

Vicious 極品基老伴

Ian McKellen’s performance is so outstanding even than his role in the Lord of the Rings. It really brings back the good old feelings as I used to watch tons of those with my landlady back in UK. It’s just so British, terribly mean 尖酸刻薄的薄黑色幽默 and really fun to watch.

美國的肌肉就是強壯

By admin, July 22, 2013 10:17 pm

終于在美國找到了這台安徒A系的1969年黑色Charger,真高興! 昨晚看了F&F6,Don的就是1969 Dodge Charger Daytona。另外越來越發現美國肌肉愛好者最喜歡的就是黑色,無論是Charger, Challenger, GTX, Runner, GTO…etc.

但是要說68-70年最好看的道奇Charger,我認為非70莫屬,因為已經是走到終級的款式。當中又以帶黑色Vinly頂棚的最難找,成交往往都是天價。

最近在一個美國出名的肌肉車网站居然以合理的價格尋得此車,而且是最后的一台,有時還真得不得不信緣分這兩字。

另外最近用了几天的時間瘋狂地橫掃了60多個北美的車模网店,發現大部分熱門稀罕的GMP, Exact Details, ERTL Authentics肌肉款式早就給人買光了。

自己收藏肌肉起步算比較晚,大概2011年頭吧,如果等到現在才開始,那學費肯定要交多很多。

好抵買!

每年夏季Uniqlo大減價都會買一兩件短袖運動T-Shirt當網球衫穿,因為發現除了價錢吸引外,質地也很不錯,透氣的來又夠輕盈,所以開始放棄A和N的兩大品牌了。

Exoto最新推出的3台Jaguar D-Type

By admin, July 19, 2013 9:30 am

這次推出的D-Type Painted Nose有3個顏色,分別是紅、白、黃(最好看而且是Moss的戰車),價格幾乎依然是AA的十倍以上。看來Exoto完全改變了銷售方向,現在只集中服務消費金字塔頂端的客戶,這是否真的能改變Exoto多年來的頹勢那就真的要時間來證明了。

昨天又遇見了熟悉的它

第一次看到這台紅色的紳寶Saab 900敞篷是在他88年的純影集裡,當年的他是那麼的芳華絕代,從此我認定了做他忠實的迷。

驚嘆中: 同屬一人的收藏

By admin, July 15, 2013 10:39 pm

今天在新界某工業區的大廈停車場竟然看到了如此壯觀的景象。Bentley Arnage R, Rolls Royce Phantom, Aston Martin V8 Vantage, M. Benz E-class Stretched Limousine (Binz Modified Pullman?),加上一台耀眼的50年代Rolls Royce Silver Cloud。

更令人吃驚的是這些車全都同屬一人的收藏,因為車牌全都是XX+以8為主的數字,其中XX 117其實就是XX18 (1+7=8)。

奇怪的是這個價值連城的私人收藏區跟旁邊頻繁出入的重型貨櫃車顯得額外地格格不入,為什麼車主要選擇這個地方存放他的收藏品﹖真令人百思不得其解。

葵涌殘場 泊滿神秘房車

香港地臥虎藏龍,好多人都「估你唔到」咁有錢。小宗最近就收到朋友報料,話喺葵涌一幢十幾年樓齡、經常有貨櫃車出入嘅工廈停車場,泊滿好多名車,而且仲要 係同一個車主,恍如個人名車展。小宗喺中環有乜靚車未見過?不過咁過癮,梗係去八吓。入到停車場,真係眼都凸埋!兩架勞斯萊斯、一架賓利、兩架法拉利、仲 有雅士頓馬田……最「普通」嗰架,都已經係 Benz嘅 S500!大大話話有七架超級房車,而且車牌都係「AH」字頭,甚架勢!

小宗喺運輸署查過車牌登記,呢批市值超過二千萬嘅靚車,都由一個叫 Andrew Hui嘅人持有,佢從事製衣生意。嗰架最「普通」嘅 S500,今年年中先落地,出車價差唔多兩球,真係劏房戶都買到一間呀!而論搶眼,當然係兩部勞斯萊斯,其中落地七年嘅 Phantom,如今八球嘢先有交易;另一架一望已知係老爺車,出廠年份係一九六二年。呢啲年紀嘅勞斯萊斯,多數只係用作收藏或展覽。去一趟工廈 car park就有「車展」睇,抵!

Equallogic Alert: Raid Battery Failed

By admin, July 14, 2013 10:17 pm

Well, it’s about time, battery normally last for 3 years, this is the first time I encountered such error and the 2nd time EQL went wrong, the first time was due to a failed disk.

event: 28.4.31
time: Sun Jul 14 21:43:29 2013
NVRAM battery failed. Power failure could result in loss of data.

Critical health conditions exist.
Correct immediately before they affect array operation.
NVRAM battery failed and must be replaced.

nvram

There are 1 outstanding health conditions. Correct these conditions before they affect array operation.

Active control module cache is now in write-through mode. Array performance is degraded.

Note the Write Latency shoots up right away because Write Back Mode is disabled although you can force to use Write Back mode.

latency
Called Dell Pro-Support, will replace by tomorrow, cause I don’t feel doing it tonight.

Update: 7/15/2013

Dell’s engineer came to the site this afternoon and fixed the problem within 5 minutes, simply swapped out the active controller card (where NVRAM battery failed), and almost right away the standby controller kicked in, I noticed only 2 ping were lost in both grpadmin and vm IP address during the controller switch over. Finally the engineer said I’m probably the first one in Hong Kong who had a battery failed in EQL, most of the problems are related to disk, the power supply, then controller card.

I can’t think of any reason anyone don’t like this kind of high redundancy with easy maintenance built in mind! Bravo! Equallogic!

真矛盾!

By admin, July 14, 2013 9:59 pm

從最初极度排斥它的科幻外型,到現在連最難找的紅色也剛得到(紅、黃、黑3色),做人實在矛盾。難到看久了就會喜歡上嗎?還是真的情人眼里出西施?

凡事有例外,對于La Ferrari,我看對多久都不會喜歡上的,當然ELITE的紅色還是要入手的,誰叫它是最新一代的法記旗艦呢!

罕見的另類意大利小跑車

By admin, July 14, 2013 8:37 pm

最近發現鄰居買了台很特別的小跑車,開始還以為是台雷諾Renault,因為樣子很法國風情。

今天才發現原來腰部貼著那著名的Pininfarina標誌,走到車尾終於發現了它的真身,原來是台90年代末期的Fiat Coupé ,而且更是台頂級的20V Turbo版本。其實車身並非Pininfarina設計,這次Pininfarina只參與了內飾的設計。

鄰居還有另一台幾乎同期的Alfa Romeo敞篷跑車,連樣子都跟這台快意差不多,足以證明車主的品味很專一。

最有趣的是那拱起的兩劃明燈設計,好些在哪裡見過,對,想起來了,就是NSX-R Facelift的前燈,根本就是一模一樣的設計,是巧合還是…﹖
