MacBook Pro Retina Display

Ini adalah tsubaki, MacBook Pro saya edisi tahun 2010. Dengan RAM 8GB, she’s still a monster now.

Nah, kali ini saya mo nulis tentang MacBook Pro edisi terbaru 2012 dari Apple yang disebut sebagai MacBook Pro Retina Display.
Swear, this is a very tempting sexy machine too bad my pocket is not so deep to get one 🙁

Pada gelaran WWDC 2012 kemarin, Apple memperkenalkan generasi MacBook Pro yang baru. Ini menjawab gencarnya rumor yang beredar sebelumnya akan seperti apakah keluarga Mac edisi 2012.

Why it’s so sexy?

Mengusung dimensi 15.4 inch, like my MBP. MBP Retina ini tebalnya hanya 0.71 inch , berat cuman 4.46 pound (sekitar 2.2kg) pounds. Layar Retina Displaynya punya kepadatan 220 pixel/inch dengan resolusi native mencapai 2880 x 1800 pixel. Itu lebih gede dari pada resolusi iMac 27inch. Arrrgghhhhhh
Sementara tsubaki, beratnya sekitar 2.7kg, resolusi standar cuman 1440×900. Kebayang deh betapa berat dan sempitnya layar dunia dibandingkan MBP Retina Display 🙁

new mbp, thinner — lebih tipis dibandingkan yang lama (slashgear.com)

Buat yang pernah mengalami perpindahan dari iPhone 3G/3Gs trus ke iPhone4 pasti dah merasakan betapa kinclongnya layar Retina Display ini. Nah bayangin hal serupa untuk ukuran layar 15.4″ instead of cuman 4″.

Power?
Mac baru ini terpasang CPU Quad Core i7 2.3GHz atau 2.6GHz dengan speed yang bisa Turbo Boost sampai 3.6GHz. Kartu grafis terbaru NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M dengan 1GB GDDR5 memory. RAM 8GB (standar yah bukan upgrade) dan pilihan 256GB atau 512GB SSD. Ada card reader SDXC dan port HDMI, kameranya 720p HD.

Kalau cuman cuman dokumen ama browsing sih ini bakal overspec banget. Tapi buat developer nyambi fotografer ma desainer kaya saya ini bakal jadi mobile desktop idaman. Belum lagi untuk render movie, bikin track musik, development environment dengan sekian virtual machine, layar yang legaaaaa, you name it.
opsi upgrade dari MBP Retina Display ini diantaranya:
2.7GHz Quad-core Intel Core i7, Turbo Boost up to 3.7GHz [Add $250.00]
16GB 1600MHz DDR3L SDRAM
768GB Flash Storage [Add $500.00]

What is not so sexy?
Harganya bo’
$2,200 untuk yang SSD 256GB atau $2,800 untuk 512GB menjadikannya Macbook termahal yang pernah ada.
*biyuhhh*
*pegangin akal*

Durability produk Apple terbilang tangguh. Macbook white ku seri MB403 edisi 2008 sampai saat ini running very well, bahkan batre nya pun nyaris tidak berasa ada penurunan kapasitas. Yah kecuali bodi plastiknya ajah ada yang bocel karena sepertinya salah design si Apple dengan magnetic latch nya. Jadi teorinya si tsubaki ini masih bisa lari untuk 2 tahun ke depan 🙂

Summertime

[Joe:]
Jones Beach 1988. Come on!

Do you remember,
Or should I rewind,
To that summer when you caught my eye,
I played it cool,
The weather was hot,
You had the beauty and the beach on lock.

With your flip flops, half shirt, short shorts, mini skirt,
Walkin’ on the beach, so pretty,
You wasn’t lookin’ for a man,
When you saw me in the sand,
But you fell for the boy from the city.

I was like, “hey, girl, can I get your number”
I remember what you told me too,
“Don’t call after ten”
But you know that I did,
‘Cause I couldn’t stop thinkin’ ’bout you.

I think about you in the summertime,
(Oh oh)
And all the good times we had, baby,
Been a few years and I can’t deny,
(Oh oh)
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
I think about you in the summertime,
(Oh oh)
I’m sittin’ here in the sun with you on my mind.
You’re my, my summertime.

Do you remember,
I’ll never forget,
Touchin’ your body all soakin’ wet,
The water was cool,
The feelin’ was hot,
Kissin’ on you while the ocean rocked.

In your strapless sundress,
Kickin’ back, no stress,
As long as we was together,
‘Cause we were feelin’ young love,
And we couldn’t get enough.
Baby, I could reminisce forever.

And now I’m like,
Hey, girl, don’t you know I miss it,
And I wonder if you miss it too,
Never thought it would end ’til it did,
Now, I’m here and I can’t stop thinkin’ ’bout you.

I think about you in the summertime,
(Oh oh)
And all the good times we had, baby,
Been a few years and I can’t deny,
(Oh oh)
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
I think about you in the summertime,
I’m sittin’ here in the sun with you on my mind.
You’re my, my summertime.

[Donnie:] Break it down.

Summer ended,
Winter started,
It got colder,
When we parted ways,
(Donnie : I like this part.)
As the seasons change.
(Donnie : Bring it forward, bring it back)
Winter melted,
Spring I felt it,
Summertime will never be the same,
(Without you. My summertime.)
My summertime.

I think about you in the summertime,
I think about you
(Oh oh)
And all the good times we had, baby,
We had baby
It’s been a few years and I can’t deny,
I can’t deny
(Oh oh)
The thought of you still makes me crazy,
Makes me crazy
I think about you in the summertime,
I’m sittin’ here in the sun with you on my mind.
On my mind,
My summertime.

A Thousand Years

I dont know since when i love to listen to Christina Perri’s songs

This is one of my fave. Too bad i cant see her concert in Jakarta yesterday.

(Verse 1)
Heart beats fast
Colors and promises
How to be brave
How can I love when I’m afraid
To fall
But watching you stand alone
All of my doubt
Suddenly goes away somehow

One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died everyday
waiting for you
Darlin’ don’t be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I’ll love you for a
Thousand more

(Verse 2)
Time stands still
beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything
Take away
What’s standing in front of me
Every breath,
Every hour has come to this

One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died everyday

Waiting for you
Darlin’ don’t be afraid
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I’ll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I’ll love you for a
Thousand more

One step closer
One step closer

(Chorus)
I have died everyday
Waiting for you
Darlin’ don’t be afraid,
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I’ll love you for a
Thousand more

And all along I believed
I would find you
Time has brought
Your heart to me
I have loved you for a
Thousand years
I’ll love you for a
Thousand more

One Night, One Stage – NKOTB

I grew up with NKOTB in my pop playlist,Â from 5th to 9th grade.

And it’s awesome to see them perform live in my country.

Along with Backstreet Boys (BSB), theyÂ held their concert titledÂ â€œNKOTBSB One Night One Stageâ€,Â at Mata Elang International Stadium, Ancol, Jakarta.

Too bad i couldn’t make it on time because getting “foked’ by the Jakarta’s friday night traffic jam
It made us 30minutes late and missed some songs because of that 🙁
I wanna see The Right Stuff dance live!! 🙁

But it’s worthy,
I could see my fave band live before my eyes
Jump and dance and sing their songs!!
Along with around 10,000 crowd that night

Awesome!! Yayyy!

little Joey of NKOTB, if you remember him back than 😛

you can see the rest photos i made in my FB or flickr account 🙂
and last but not least, these two already got the NKOTB ticket since Â January ^_^

Spammed by rezkytravel.com

Yeah to the point

rezkytravel.com is a fucking spammer. I never gave my number to them nor subscribe to any services related to them.

But these last couple of days, my cellphone is and still being spammed by that bastard travel agent. Today was fromÂ +62 853 18310309 and +62 853 18229062

So these are some screenshot I’ve made and also the suspicious website ofÂ rezkytravel.com. A kind of website that typically made by scammer who intend to trap their victim by ‘online’ transaction.

The address said to be in

“REZKY Tour & Travel. Kantor:Â Jl Tapas X Kav DKI Bl D-8/3 JAKARTA. CALL CENTER: 0853-12934333. 0852-15777765″

But after do some simple googling, that address is registered to PT. Antasena … yea, another travel agent.

So I suggest you guys to be careful with this kind of company, who spammed people cellphone which is a private area for doing their Â business.

It’s so f****** anoying
Well you see the way they do business by sending spam SMS and look at their website, suspicious. You can make simple comparison with the real well known travel agents like indo.com, vayatour.com, avia-tour.com,Â smailingtour.co.id

Hello World, Nikon D800

Finally, the long-awaited moment is arrived.
Nikon D800 telah resmi diumumkan oleh Nikon. Yayyyyyy

Dimulai dengan berita-berita dari nikonroumours.com sejak tengah tahun 2011 kemarin, pertanyaan mengenai pengganti kamera Nikon D3s/D300s/D700 sudah banyak merebak.
Contohnya link berikut ini:
August 24th: Nikon D700 and D3s successors (nikonrumours.com)

dan masih banyak lagi, tinggal ikutin saja tag d800 di nikonrumours.com yah

Nah, penerus keluarga full frame D3 sudah muncul bulan kemarin, Nikon D4 setelah sebelumnya Canon memperkenalkan Canon EOS 1Dx.
Penerus D300s, which is supposed to be D400? Masih velum ada kabar.
Nah, 7 Februari kemarin Nikon merilis berita mengenai flasgship kamera full frame dia yang kedua untuk tahun ini yaitu Nikon D800/D800E yang nota bene adalah penerus Nikon D700.

Saya sendiri sebenarnya berminat dengan D700, sayang di Jakarta sudah susah nyarinya (terutama yang garansi Alta Nikindo). Padahal budget sudah disiapkan dan D90 tersayang juga sudah berpindah tangan. Karena saya sudah punya Sony NEX-5n untuk yang APS-C, target berikutnya emang full frame.

Yah apa daya D700 termasuk jajaran seri yang tidak diprosuksi lagi oleh Nikon (discontinue) termasuk D90. Ga heran sih, karena di Amerika sendiri D700 sudah out of stock sejak Q4 2001.

Dan sesuai dengan rumor, spek D800 inipun cukup wow. Mulai dari 36.3 megapixel (RAW Fx), 15.4 megapixel kalo mode DX. ISO 100 – 6400 yang bisa extend hingga 25,600. Saya sendiri sangat puas dengan kemampuan high ISO D700 yang saya gunakan waktu memotret Java Rocking Land 2001 (dan tentunya The Cranberries) kemarin.

Fitur-fitur yang ditawarkan D800 antara lain:

36.3-megapixel FX-format CMOS sensor
91,000-pixel RGB Matrix Metering System
Advanced scene recognition system
51-point AF system (15 cross-type sensors)
Multiple AF modes (e.g., normal, wide area, face tracking, and subject tracking)
Full HD 1080p video, with full manual control and uncompressed HDMI output
ISO 100 to 6400 (50 to 25600 expanded)
Shooting in different aspect ratios (e.g., 5:4)
In-camera High Dynamic Range (HDR) image capture
3.2-inch, 921,000-dot LCD monitor with automatic brightness control
HDMI port (8 bit, 4:2:2)
Dedicated headphone jack
Audio output level adjustment (30 steps)
High-fidelity audio recording control (levels set and monitored on LCD)
Stereo microphone jack
4 fps continuous shooting (6 fps in DX mode using the optional battery pack)
USB 3.0 support

Nikon D800 bakal mask pasar sekitar bulan Maret dengan harga kisaran $2,999.95 (body only), sedangkan D800E akan meluncur pertengahan April dengan harga $3,300 (body only).

Duh, sepertinya saya harus berpikir ulang nih. Yang jelas mesti nabung tambahan lagi $1000 kalo pingin D800 ini. Dan begitu masuk Indonesia nanti ga tahu deh harganya jadi IDR berapa. Biyuh â€¦. *pegangin akal*

Arrrghhhhhhh

Berikut ini contoh foto-foto hasil D800. Foto-foto ini adalah hasil ulasan dari situs gottabemobile.com

Nikon D800, ISO 640, f4.5, 1/200 sec., AF-S NIKKOR 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II (Click for High Res D800 Sample)
