I went to the Ayala Malls to look for a tower PC that would fit the profile of the PC for the Philips Stressvue stress test machine (for people who haven't been to my old blog click here.

For something this high-tech, the Stressvue actually needs a legacy nine pin serial port to connect to a treadmill. I'm not sure if using a USB to serial converter would work, I haven't gotten around to experiment if it works. Only a few shops carry HP desktops (as needed by the machine) and all of them are the new Pavilion models WITHOUT a serial port. And none carry a 17'' Philips LCD as needed by the machine.

Well, I only tried the Park Square I shops where they are all confined. I remember reading T3 where a shop in Greenbelt carries a nice range of electronics, but I'm not about to walk that long for that one mythical shop which might not even carry what I'm looking for. ^^;; The PC I can understand but for crying out loud - a high-class mall such as the Ayala Malls do not even have a shop that has a Philips 17'' (or better) LCD monitor? I'm calling the attention of the owners of the Park Square I shops, give these people with ill-gotten money branded and obscenely expensive electronics to burn their ill-gotten money with! lol XD

On the way home in a converted Mitsubishi L300 Van with "air-conditioning" (the fare costs 45 Php from Park Square II to Imus, I'm not complaining about the obscenely expensive fare because it's actually convenient - but they should install top quality air-conditioning with the money they're making because it's impossible to cool down a full passenger cabin with that crappy air-conditioning unit it comes with), I listened to four sample tracks from PNE's Halina sa Parokya Album. I had to cover my mouth because I was snickering like a crack junkie from the insane lyrics of the songs. If you haven't heard the new album of Parokya yet, try singing the below lyrics to the tune of System of a Down's Chopsuey and you'll know what I mean. XD
