Windows 8 Installed ... Now What?

Looks good but I have no clue.

It was not so hard getting Windows 8 to be installed. It was very smooth and did not take too long at all. May be because I selected the clean install.

Looking at Windows 8 screen ... I have no clue where to go or what to do. I will start fooling around with it. One other thing, after the install I realized the wireless network is not working. I found the update at computer hardware site.

Documenting Upgrade with a Camera

I realized that I do not use my Windows Laptop that much. I do use my iPad more to do things. So, I have nothing much to loose if I lost my Windows Laptop. So, I decided to upgrade to Windows 8. I purchased recent enough that this PC can be up graded for just $14.99.

I am doing it right now. I let you know how it goes,

What is Safeway thinking?

From the top.

From the side

I bought a huge sandwich with full of ham and turkey at Safeway. When I came back and cut it open, the meats are only on the opening side and back there is nothing.

What does Safeway want to prove?
Only thing they are proving is that they cheat customers.
I won't buy this sandwich again.

SUSHI not 寿司

PSPINC is an American Corporation having its office only in the USA. However, our major revenue source is from Japan where outsourcing of the internet web and email servers are more popular. People in the US are starting to realize the benefit of outsourcing web and email recently.

The sushi roll you see here is very popular in the US but was never heard of in japan until recently. It is true Japanese American Hybrid.

Does it look very sunken?
It is one of those ships that moves pontoons around on Lake Washington.

KanjiWORD

KanjiWORD by Pacific Software Publishing, Inc.

KanjiWORD is one of the very first software package that PSPINC published in the US. This software enabled non Japanese version of Windows 3.1 to process Japanese text. That was back in 1993~1994 ... two years before PSPINC start its Internet hosting business.

The last technical support for KanjiWORD was just last year. One of the user lost the 3.5" installation diskette. We try to replace it but we realized that we did not have any computer in our company with disk drive. We needed to take one of the PSPINC display computer to duplicate the disk.

Only females do this.

I heard female re-enters a car when you start pumping the gas into a car. Most guys stay outside until it is done. That is the reason why people who drive a way with the gas nozzle attached are females.

It is not safe to reenter into a car while you are fueling according to this sign at Chevron Station.

I will be traveling to Japan from January 23 to February 6. I will be flying Delta from Seattle to Narita, Japan. I will be staying at Takanawa Prince Hotel Sakura Tower in Tokyo from January 30 to February 6.

I booked this hotel using online booking site. I think I got the room cheaper than any Japanese web site. I like this note because it is not a huge hotel but good location and easy access to the airport and railways.

Facebook Account vs Page

https://www.facebook.com/PacificSoftwarePublishing

Many small business owners have opened the Facebook accounts and use them to promote their business. I have done the same but I learned that is not how it should work. You create PAGE which looks and act like an Facebook Account to promote your business.

In my case, I own https://www.facebook.com/uchikura account. I use thios account to create following pages to promote my company and products.

https://www.facebook.com/Pspinc
https://www.facebook.com/PSPINCJP
https://www.facebook.com/PacificSoftwarePublishing
https://www.facebook.com/pspnewsmail

PAGES have more functions than the account. You get to see the traffic to your PAGES. You also can have multiple PAGES from your account. You can also assign other people to be the administrator of your PAGES.

If you have any question, please contact me or my company.
