It was years ago I’m with Galaxy Webhosting, and today, I make the decision to leave them behind and look for another web hosting. It is time to change a power steering rack for my car to run online. Though it’s not a reseller hosting that I used to all the while, but I’m still into cPanel operating so there shouldn’t be any problem about add on domains and etc.

Since 27/9/2008 morning, Galaxy Webhosting has been telling me that they’re testing their PHP5, and abandon all my websites that has PHP alone and death for the whole day. There isn’t any information about it until after 12 hours. All the support went offline. These are the tactics they have been using all the time to make sure nobody bug them when service is down. That, however, made me lose a great amount of earning on the internet.

If I still remember, this web hosting service was maintain by a guy from England, alone. By the way, with young age with not so much experience, I don’t think it’s gonna work for long term. How can support hide away when things messed up? I’ve never contact them if they give an early notice, I don’t like to contact support too, because I know how to handle all the stuff myself. I contact only when the service is down or something wrong with the service part, and I do research before contact. But they ended up playing hide and seek with me. Galaxy webhosting, I would not recommend anyone to use it now. Here are things that Galaxy Webhosting gonna con you:

1, Support
Don’t even tried to contact the support. Either MSN, support ticket or email, they don’t reply with an explanation. All they reply was they have a problem with the server, story end. And the thing about downtime is, when it happen, they’re gone. No way to find them, email not working as it’s using the domain (support@galaxy-webhosting.co.uk), MSN they will go down themselves without notice, don’t even think about support ticket.

2, Downtime
There is no guarantee about downtime. It happen very often, every month there are downtime happen, without any notice. If you don’t mind a few hour downtime is fine. But every few months it will down for 24 hours and more.

3, Mature mind
Who in the hell would have the right mind to TEST something on the main server? That is the purest stupidity I’ve ever seen in my life, this goes into my top 10 idiot list. Everytime there’s a test, sometimes, it’s upgrade. Nothing, there’s absolutely nothing that can help them to stay online when upgrading or whatsoever.

4, Speed
There is absolutely no speed about Galaxy Webhosting, although my ISP sucks enough, but when my connection is on the peak speed, the server is slow. Believe me! I’m with Lunarpages now, with the same connection, I get faster speed on Lunarpages compare with them.

5, Expertise
By having more than 24 hours just to try to install PHP, that is the only expertise I find from them. Anything they wanted to install or update would take ages. I don’t expect to install within an hour or two, but at least everything should speed up.

I for one, boycott Galaxy Webhosting. Yes, I’m bold all the keyword so people can search it out and they can find this entry about their stupidity. I’m off their server now.

Well, first and foremost, I didn’t test it on PC, so no PC type of review Sorry, but it’s a big hassle to install the driver, looks for a bluetooth adapter and etc. So I’ll just make it short on my Macbook only.

Anyway, my Macbook now looking cleaner without all the annoying wires, there are only the magnetic plug nothing else. The mouse works on normal surface only by the way, this laser mouse doesn’t work on glossy surface, I was with glass surface on the table but it doesn’t work, so I have to pull another mousepad for it.

As I mentioned on my previous post that this mouse works so fast and fine with the Macbook, so my setting is way low, I can’t actually set it on the first one only, as it resulting not moving at all. Well, have to get use to it sooner or later, it’s just unlike the normal optical mouse nor my previous 3D mouse though.

Most of all, my Macbook has lesser plug at the moment, I still have an external keyboard My table gonna look just have had it Phentermine pill, slimming down with all the wires I’m loving this wireless technology of course! My Sony Ericsson P990i always bluetooth pairing with my Macbook whenever I transfer stuff in between them too.

It’s been sometimes I’m playing with WordPress theme. Got to love how it coded and how it become something I wanted. Now, this is the new template I coded myself I have a few more template that hand coded from scratch. Anyhow, it seems like I have a new plan on my next blog

Currently I’m transforming all my blog into my own template first Just so I can get enough portfolio on my next blog

I don’t know it’s myself thinking too much or it is happening to OS Ground, there are lots of spams going on on this site Funny thing is the traffic isn’t that high and not to mention, there isn’t any Google PR as well Due to the fact that I’m writing paid posting Well, that’s how I keep on my web hosting as well as the money to get new accessories for my Macbook

Well, that is why WordPress become one of the best weblog platform or some said best CMS (Content Management System) I bet they are, all spam can only go to the spam category, waiting me to delete them Don’t need to call any mover NYC to move all the spam though. Actually, there was another guy came to me and asked me to do a website for them, asking me to do a simple website for their company, I was thinking about just some plain HTML pages is more than enough, until he told me that they wanted a news and updates section, immediately I thought of WordPress Can’t deny it’s still the best

Recently I found out this good application called Coconut, it is an application that check your battery original capacity and current battery capacity.

Strange thing is, after didn’t use the battery for some times, I recall it’s like about 4 months, my battery life span getting shorter and shorter each time I reuse them, so I figure I give it a try. That’s what I got, and it’s shocking! Just look at it, how much it change from time to time. What’s wrong with my battery?

I didn’t use battery most of the time, but I do tried to use it on monthly basic. Look at the battery recycle, it was 95 on the first day and I have to test them for 3 days, all 3 days they gave me different capacities, sigh… I’m not going to get a new battery in anyway though, but for sure I’m getting a new laptop soon
