New MacBooks at PHP 54,990
MacBooks are getting cheaper and cheaper. This is the most affordable MacBook in recent history. Although I’m a big fan of the aluminum finish, I figure that Apple really needed to distinguish the MacBook line with the Pro series as they were both starting to look alike. So the 13 inch MacBook is back to its white roots with more rounded corners. From the product photos, the new portables look “fatty” but as seen in this size comparison with my aluminum portable, it’s really...

Verifying Paypal Using VCC
I often see VCCs or virtual credit cards being sold usually at the forums to verify one’s paypal account. Many could attest that using these cards are effective, but I learn from Selaplana’s post that VCCs are not recommended. As he says it:
You can buy VCC from VCC providers for only $20 to $60. It’s just virtual (not physical credit card) but its functions are similar to credit card. This kind of credit card expires in a short period of time from 24 hours to 6 months. So, if...

After checking the pics out, there’s really no surprise. Why? Because Filipinos are actually party of Team USA! Hahahaha! One was even wearing the infamous...
