Ever had an old bomb that just wouldn’t do what you wanted it to? Imagine a world with cool new shiny cars that look sleek in design, wonderful engineering and a large range of car model selection.

Look no further the new Chevrolet Europe models are here! The cars are just indescribable so if you want to check out the models go to the official Chevrolet Europe Website! You might also want to check out their hilarious new ad at the bottom of the post and pray that the following does not happen to you…

During my monthly windows update checkup on update Tuesday, I couldn’t help but notice that Windows XP SP3 had been released and yes I still run Windows XP on my other incredibly old PC, (if I could upgrade to Vista I could but the system specs. are just too old).

When I was installing SP3 on Windows XP, I was praying to god that there were major improvements, however I was let down as SP3 contains nothing more than all the old previous updates, that I already had and a few network improvements. Nothing major, however I do like how Microsoft updated their descriptions for a few security settings which now contains a hell of a lot more detail.

As you can see this post is very short as SP3 does not contain a whole lot, however I of course recommend you update to SP3 just in case you missed some updates in the past for whatever reason. However  SP3 is a major disappointment to users like me but then again there’s no point improving a product if there is something better (cough, cough) vista (cough some more).

This is just a short post to say “HAPPY BIRTHDAY JANSON!” For all those that do not remember Janson Cheng here is a brief summary quoted from his Myspace page…

Janson Cheng. 18 years old. Year 12 Student at East Doncaster Secondary College. He is:
An anime freak. Lazy. Annoying. Arrogant. Boring. Obsessive. Lazy. Sarcastic. Ignorant. That pretty much sums it up. Did I mention lazy?

Favourite animes include:

• Naruto (OMGSH Shippuuden is like OMFG AMAZING!!!! It is soooo good)
• Bleach (Kickass!!! no fillers!! Not as good as Shippuuden though)
• Deathnote
• Ouran High (Funny as hell and sweet at times. lol Tamaki Senpai)
• KEKKAISHI!!!! Houi! Jouso! Ketsu! Metsu! lol.

I’m not too sure who made that list of descriptions for Janson but I am sure of one thing and that is, Janson always knows what to say at difficult times and always cheers up people around him with his jokes. Also Janson owns a division of Wesimation.com which is called Jansonsays.com, I wish Janson luck in the future and hopefully he has had an eventful day.

If you read my previous post about the Asus M51SN then you will have noticed my rampage about how people can’t be bothered learning how to use Windows Vista and therefore say crap all about it. However this post will not contain another rampage, rather it will contain the fantastic features included with Windows Vista Ultimate.

The best thing about Windows Vista Ultimate is that people can now use a feature called the ReadyBoost feature. This uses a spare USB key or memory stick in order for more virtual memory, however a word of warning, this is only good if you have a spare USB key and I wouldn’t go to a shop and buy one just for this feature. Buying more RAM is always good but if you have a spare USB key this feature is for you! Even though my laptop (Asus M51SN) has 2GB of RAM, this feature did actually help speed up my system quite a fair bit.

Windows Aero is another good feature, although it does not seem like much, this feature makes your PC look good with minimal performance impact. This can be enabled (must have a supported graphics adapter) or disabled via the cool new and much more logical control panel. The control panel may seem hard to use at first because of it’s new logical design however this is simply solved by using your brain more often and thinking logically. As if these features weren’t good enough for some reason certain applications such as Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) run a lot faster in Windows Vista, this is incredibly weird but also incredibly cool.

If you haven’t used or picked up your local version of Windows Vista Ultimate then you are definitely missing out on some pretty cool stuff. The ultimate edition is recommended even though it costs more as there are no limitations regarding the use of the Operating System (OS). Windows Vista Ultimate receives a 5/5 star rating and is recommended to people that have an open mind, can figure things out for themselves and want to have heaps of fun!

Before I start with this review, I should probably notify you all that Justin Lowmaster has officially left the team due to personal commitments which I don’t think I am liable to discuss. It was great to have Justin on the team even if it were for only a short amount of time, however he has completed his writing work up to Issue #9 which The Wesimation Team will be working on soon.

Anyway to kick start this review off, I must say the Asus M51SN has amazing specs and firepower. First off it can run Counter-Strike: Source at around 200FPS (Frames Per Second) with having the default settings, just keep in mind that the human eye can only see around 60-70 FPS. The GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) to accomplish this is of course the 9500m GS. This notebook also comes with Windows Vista: Ultimate Edition which everyone hates (probably because they have no clue how to use it). In all seriousness, Windows Vista has no issues as long as you keep up to date with the updates. Enough about the performance, the real question is, does everything work?

From what I can see absolutely everything works as long as you have the time to set it all up. These days people are quite lazy, when something doesn’t work the way they intend it to, they simply give up and bag the crap out of the software/hardware. Hopefully the people that bag the crap out of Vista eventually grow up and face that its the best operating system EVER!

Enough of my Vista rampage, you say? Okay, lets move onto… THE SUMMARY! YAY! The Asus M51SN completely owns all notebook out there and much cheaper than a MacBook Pro (priced at around $1,900 AUD). This notebook is recommended for games and anything else you could possibly use a notebook for!

While waiting for dinner, I was looking for something to post about and just happened to find a website called Just Tell Me Why! This website seems to be a new craze among people where one user sets up an argument and the other users have to give their views/opinions about the argument with a justification.

If you visit this site, it may seem at first a little hard to understand as the web design is sort of all over the place and should really be revised relatively soon. At least they have a really cool tag cloud that rotates, fades and looks pretty damn attractive, this shows that the people that made this website at least have some knowledge of new up-to-date coding skills. The websites structure is probably the only downfall as everything seems to be all over the place and the search bar is a little bit hidden which makes it hard for new users. 

Not only is the web design structure a little out of wack but also the paragraph structure for the instructions needs to be worked on just a little bit. Bigger paragraph breaks are needed as it sort of looks like just one clump of text which can intimidate new users.

All in all if you love to argue/debate with people that you have never met and have some time on your hand then this site is for you!

Just Tell Me Why Official Website

I would just like to make a quick post since I sort of forgot to introduce our latest team member, Justin Lowmaster! Justin owns a number of services at thebeandom.com such as a blog, the space turtle section where he shares his original stories, games, forum and bible studies.

I first noticed Justin at a place called socialspark where I first laid eyes on his website. At first I thought it was just another pathetic blog, however when I started reading the content I was quite interested in the story lines, jokes and everything else on the site. The thought then came to me, why don’t we hire him and ask him to be part of The Wesimation Team. We asked and he agreed, with such talented writing skills and humour The Wesimation Team has become bigger and greater.

Justin has been with us since the release of issue #4 and we hope he will continue writing excellent stories for us to implement into our comic! Once again welcome Justin to The Wesimation Team!

Recently I watched the trailer of a new movie that is only coming to a few selected theaters. This movie is of course “Frontier(s)”. I have no idea what exactly the movie is about after long periods of googling, however after watching the trailer I am not too sure if I really want to see this movie.

The trailer for this movie was very interesting as it shows a hell of a lot of people screaming their heads off, feet getting cut off and people butchering the closest person to them with a axe. This trailer only had sound effects, screaming and music, there was absolutely no dialogue which makes it hard to tell if there is actually a story line to the movie. I think the trailer could have been made a bit better by adding some dialogue or some sort of narrator.

Anyway moving onto why this movie is so popular. With everything popular it is always surrounded by controversy, with “Frontier(s)” this controversy involves the fact that this movie is so violent, it does not fit into the restricted unless 18 years old or older category. Yes, you heard right, this movie is completely UNRATED!

If that doesn’t deter you away from the film then you really should check out the disgusting website(http://www.frontiersunrated.com). This website also contains a link where you can view select theater listings. This contains the special theaters that will be showing this highly controversial film. None of these are even close to where I live (Australia) however if it were, I would probably go see this film to see if it really deserved its unrated rating and what the story plot actually involves. If you want more information on this film, feel free to view the following website. (Frontier(s) - http://www.Bloody-Disgusting.com). However if you are easily scared, I do not recommend you go to that website.

To wrap this post up, “Frontier(s)” is a new horror film that people may or may not like and is completely unrated to due the volume of violence. There is a trailer at the bottom of this post if you wish to get a taste of this unrated film and I would recommend people to go see it especially if you love horror/scary films!

Hope you enjoyed this WebComic brought to you by Wesimation Team. Feel free to leave comments about this WebComic and anything else related to this website.

Here at wesimation.com we have recently upgraded to the newest edition of WordPress (version 2.5.1), with WordPress 2.5 being a semi-flop (yes we did know this but we upgraded anyway!), the new version 2.5.1 is a much more stable release with a few important security updates and a hell of a lot of bug fixes (counted currently at 70).

The WordPress team suggest that you COULD update the files just to implement the security updates however this is not advised as there is one major bug fix that they have implemented. I posted this bug on the WordPress forum about 3 weeks ago where everyone was sort of having the same problem. The bug seemed to have occurred when people edit their text widgets on the sidebar and if they press cancel, WordPress seems to think it is okay to remove all of the text widgets content (including others). Can you imagine how annoying this was? Having to constantly backup the SQL database just in case the text widget randomly removes the content.

This is why I strongly suggest all WordPress users to implement this complete update and once you use it you too will be OMG! This update can be found at the usual spots including http://wordpress.org/download/
