Sorry that I cannot post this during the weekend as I still didn’t have an Internet connection at home.

So, it might be too late to write about the offers that they have at the PIKOM PC Fair so I will tell part of my experience on my visit.

As usual I will go to PC Fair on Friday after work. This time I went alone as my partner in crime is on leave.

I noticed there are few new marketing style that some of the exhibitor used and it is really interesting. It is new in PC Fair to me. Before I continue, for those who are looking for pictures of the PC Fair Babes, I’m sorry to disappoint you. Recently I can see a lot of these people who is walking around with their big DSLR camera and taking this “PC Fair Babes” pictures. Sometimes it makes me sick. It’s their way of enjoying the fair I think or maybe they have some other plan. Whatever…

This time I don’t really check out the fair as I was really on a hurry (my wife working night shift, need to get back a bit early). Anyway, I got back at 9 p.m. (luckily my wife is in a good mood that night).

It started with something new from Intel. They have a room to introduce a few of their latest products and they called the session “PC Guru”. I’m looking forward to see the Packet 1 (P1) booth as there’s a lot of their

The other halls on 3rd floor have the same exhibitor as before and I will skip all that. My interest is more towards the 1st floor halls where all the very hot action is going on. Nah… more vendor and cheaper price. Here you need to be careful of low quality items as everything are cheap. Here is where all the wireless broadband service provider being put together.

Before I forgot, there is a new company (I think) that have this so called new technology on PC sharing. They called it “K-One Multi PC System”. The system shared the main PC resources and there is this device that split it to become another set of workstation. I’m not sure how cost effective it is, but it looks cool. For further info just call the numbers on the flyer and don’t forget to mentioned my blog address. Haha…

Anyway, I bought 2 8GB Kingston thumbdrive and managed to get a bag and a handphone pouch from the lucky draw that they have. They have this competition, just checkout the scanned form below. You can visit their blog at www.kingston-blog.com and post the pictures that you took during PIKOM PC Fair or anything that related to Kingston and/or Kingston products and post it in Kingston’s blog, you are entitled to win some prizes. Just check out the blog la… Valid until 21st December 2008.

The “Kingston Go Green & Win” is a different competition than the “blog” competition.

The most revealing product type that is sold at the PC Fair this time is the notebook skin. Yup! One of the biggest local brand would be the VEGE. You can check out their product at www.vege.com.my. Unfortunately that I do not have a notebook. I think that is the trend nowadays and there is more people using notebook now compare to a few years back.

In the last hall, near to the exit, they have all the broadband and wireless broadband provider. P1 have this air chamber that you need to collect as much of fake RM notes. I’m not so sure what is the promotion that they are doing because too much of disturbance. As I walk around that area, there are a lot of agent for the broadband provider everywhere. So, I can’t really concentrates on what is happening around that area.

Anyway, when I pass down the MAXIS booth, a sales person manage to persuade me to change my prepaid Hotlink line to MAXIS postpaid. It was free anyway.
