WTB Bungalow Single Story

pilotHans — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 01:32:40 +0800

Rumah Lot Banglo Pinggiran Putra

I saw this, (hope who read this don't steal or curi2 call call the place bcoz its very2 limited...only 3houses are putting for sale for the whole area )

Price: RM 350 000
No of rooms: 3
Current Montly Rental : RM800 (not sure bout the other houses)
Size: around 4000 Square feet, this is what ive been told over the phone.....no specific dimension
LOCATION -> I suspect it's located at http://wikimapia.org/9496334/Taman-Perumah...atan-Perhutanan

My opinion on the location ->
I find the location superb......I've been staying here in Bdr Putra Permai, nearly 2years.....and I find it nice.....so location wise I think is settled.....

Condition : I've yet to inspect it......current its tenanted......

Status : Leasehold, not sure how many years left....

Developer : I've googled it but yet to find it....hmmm

My doubts/ Qs :-
1) just the house.....it sounds too cheap to be true....anyone heard of this place? Ive looked the area from outside(not the specific unit), the garden looks spacious.....
2) During the economy time, is it a good move? will the price drop anymore or will it remain for a few years?
3) in short term(2-5years) - i plan to rent it out(since im renting a single story nearby).....but in long term, I plan to stay at the house......as for now...but im not sure for the future
4) what would be appreciation value in lets say 10years from now on?
5) any one know any future plans development for bdr putra permai/puchong gateway/equine park..
6) How much would be the "Cukai Tanah"? is it RM60 twice a year? or am i getting the wrong figures here..
7) refer my POST 10 for some other Q's
8) can i go to the nearest maybank branch and ask them for the current market value? what correct question should i ask and which specific department should i go....haih..... + any cost for this?

please advice....

tune money

pilotHans — Tue, 10 Feb 2009 16:38:22 +0800

Hi,

im not so sure if this is the right place but I used tunemoney to register my domain....and also plan to pay my hosting with it.....so I guess its kindda of related here....

Q & problem :
1) Do you guys find that the tunemoney website is down this week? or is it just me I asked uncle google but couldnt find any answers....the closest I found was tunemoney was downsizing their employees

2) is it true that Pos Malaysia doesnt accept topup/tunemoney transactions starting 1feb09? I didnt receive any mail on this from tunemoney

regards,
pilotHans.

choosing a hosting company...(already have domain)

pilotHans — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 17:56:26 +0800

hi LYN friends .

im new to this subThread......i need some advice here....im still in a process to find a hosting place......ive a few Q's..for a start, I've already around 7 domains that I bought from goDaddy last month...Lets just say I want to register hosting with company X,

1) What's the domain name for life that i need to choose?(some offer free domains, but i want to use my existing ones, i dont plan to get a new one) would it be a personal site or a business site? normally is it changeable? means now i put under ABC.com...then year month I change to XYZ.com for the free host?
2) Can I just use goDaddy for the domain, and hostmonster for the host?
3) would i be penaltilize for changing domain from goDaddy to Hostmonster? I think i read somewhere in T&C of goDaddy but I cant seem to find it anymore
4) Is it a good practice to have all ur sites within the same hosting account?
5) If im in malaysia, for my business site maybe its best to host in malaysia? as for my personal site, would be fine if i use other hostings...
6) I found this..http://www.webhostingstuff.com is this reliable....uncle google showed me a few different results....hostgator keep coming out...

my hosting options so far :

international hosting :-
1) hostgator - most tempting but a bit pricey...
http://www.hostgator.com/shared.shtml - their site looks like got a lot of features...
2) hostmonster http://www.hostmonster.com/hosting-features.htm
3) webhostingpad - http://www.webhostingpad.com/hosting-features.html cheap, but scared since i read a few bad reviews

malaysianhosting ->
- serverfreak - read that is recommend here...somemore in klang...would be cheap i needed to call them if anything goes wrong
- ipserverone - popular factor.. but their site i find not much/detail info in their package...

websites/domain name that i own for the moment being
-3 personal sites....
-4 business sites....(include 1 travelling & 1 is photography site)

min requirement for hosting
-cPanel
-unlimited domains
-good customer support
-support any database at least
-eCommerce/eBiz friendly/freature
-unlimited subdomain
-support forwarding
-free email & autoresponder
-support scripts without need to pay extra's
-Private SSL/Shared SSL

please advice....if i post in the wrong place, plz do let me know what to do or where to ask
Thanks

I dont get this problem with IDE hdd...

FYI, if i put the sata hdd as slave to other pc, the C, D , E and F are all there meaning the hdd is still fine....so I wonder what's wrong with my settings....this happen early december when I need to remove my IDE 80G hdd....before this I had no problem with the same sata hdd inside another mobo intel pearl865 which was spoiled sometime last year...this only happened with this MSI mobo...it definately supports sata since got 2ports on the board that i can see clearly...

network controller

pilotHans — Thu, 04 Jan 2007 14:46:22 +0800

Hi everyone......

the problem is like this...From My Computer>Device Manager> Network Controller = ??? got some question marks indicating it's not properly installed...FYI I've just reformatted my laptop recently..... i suspect My system CD driver is not working... because It's taking so long to upload...I can see the Driver folder inside the CD but can't click on it..so I decided to go to acer website to download the Driver....the nearest to 1694 is the 1690 series I assume....so I've downloaded the lan4401 and lan5788 driver from the Acer website...to be specific the Acer Europe page...the Acer malaysia does not have the driver.....but when I try to update the driver by right clicking the ???(question marked Network Controller) it still cannot be found...I've copied to my hdd and also unzip it......

so my question is how to solve this problem?

I've downloaded the driver's following site....i notice they have version..i mean does the versions vary from other coutries for drivers of the same series ....is it important to get the same versions...how can i determine my network card version?

laptop spec
- acer aspire 1694
- ddr2
- windows XP pro
