Some children get worried when they see their parents glued to the computer playing games or browsing the internet. I would join them. Wouldn’t you?

It seems that a 13-year-old girl was really concerned by her mother being obssessed by World of Warcraft. I’m not going to discuss the game as I don’t play it, I prefer car simulation games and soccer games, especially the ones that are played on a real field. Here’s the excerpt:

“I know it sounds ridiculous but my mother has started playing the computer game WoW, World of Warcraft,” wrote the 13-year-old.

“This summer she has been sitting up all day and all night and she forgets what’s important to me. And when she’s not at the computer she’s like a lost soul. She just looks straight ahead and says nothing. I’m not doing so well.”

Other problems are dads watching porn on the internet and both parents stuck on internet chatrooms.

Microsoft launched a new package of its Windows Vista Home Premium Edition. It comes in pink colour, hopefully will have some extras direct to the female population. (Yes, pink looks better on girls).

This edition comes with one year subscription of Windows Live OneCare and a copy of a Windows Vista tips & tricks book.

No offense to anyone who is anorexic, especially top models. The new Lenovo X300 surely impresses even the guys at Apple, because the MacBook Air is 0.1lbs heavier than the X300…

You should get different versions, but the most recent one I saw had an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU at 1.2GHz with 4MB cache against MacBook’s 1.6GHz, 2GB of RAM which is the same as its Apple counterpart. The hard drive is only 64GB against Apple’s 80GB, but there are 3 USB ports, and a DVD writer, which doesn’t even exist in the MacBook.
