Farinelli is the host who has resigned himself to the glorious and noble task of communications. He shares a love of audio with NTT, and as such appreciates a curiously wide range of musical styles. After much verbal slapping by Jerrick he has finally earned the right to legitly call himself a Mac fanboy by acquiring the latest Macbook Pro, which he shamelessly boasts as the most powerful machine Tech65 has in their grubby possession. Farinelli has an interest in all forms of media editing, and hopes to be unearthly proficient in it soon. He is stuck in Stagmont Camp during weekdays, paying his share of the price of peace.

At at least half the width and height of most notable premium iPod speakers, the Creative ZiiSound D5 is a physical dwarf among it’s peers, and quite possibly a welcome one. Where the key turns the lock though, you would think one purchases speakers with sound quality as their primary factor (although there’s always that [...]

A late zombie and sour coffee is in some ways (some very vague ways) a great day to start a Saturday morning, and in this episode we have long time friend of Tech65 Justin Lee join us in an all-Microsoft episode (almost all, you know there are always brief references to Mac and our BotW [...]

Hey there. Farinelli here. So um, the hamsters did in fact revolt again, nearly destroyed the episode but my l33t skills saved it somehow, and I’m basically left to apologize for the volume issues in this episode. You do not want to know what happened while I was working on this episode. And even if [...]

This episode we return to the venue where we recorded our very first Channel65 episode almost two years ago with Kevin Lim to bring you the latest developments in the techie worldie, including Palm’s iPod-syncing stunt, Nokia’s freshly opened Ovi Store, Microsoft’s My Phone and their slightly ridiculous forward-backward maximum specs for netbooks running Windows [...]

BlogOut! ‘09 Day 2

SHEBaCoT.
See? It’s a nice name right? I tried to convince Daniel but he wouldn’t be. Find out why you shouldn’t dismiss the new Atom chip as only .06GHz faster. Also, the G Phone will be arriving exclusively on Singapore’s sunny-island-set-in-the-sea shores, thanks to not-so-Sink-tel’s clout. What though of the G1’s dependency on telco-pushed updates? But [...]

Yes, this week the crew takes a break from our usual gig (or geek, hurhur) at Geek Terminal (or Gig Terminal hurhur… ok I’ll stop) to attend Podcamp Singapore v2.0. Daniel, Farinelli, and DK speak to a wonderful crowd of near 30 (yes I counted can?) about some of the lessons we have learnt after [...]

We’ve had the pleasure of having Easysafe as our sponsor, and now, Daniel will show you in this episode how Easysafe works by creating and accessing a secure folder.

In this week’s sum up of the eternal chess game between Microsoft and Apple, Microsoft is definitely overwhelmed with only the king, queen, two bishops, and a castle left, surrounded by just about the entire back row of Apple’s white pieces. Apple’s cornered the royal couple, but Microsoft turned the tables… well turned the stool [...]
