beautiful words - some athif aslam song i suppose

Dard mein bhi yeh lab muskura jate hain

Beetey lamhe hamein jab bhi yaad atey hain

Chand lamha ke waste hi sahih

Muskura kar mili thi mujhe zindagi

How much can one rely on fate to get married?

How much can one rely on fate to get married?

Can you spend your lifetime with some one whom you dont even know, who has been your final choice because of material, social pressures. In a contemporary set up where one gets exposure to different lifestyles and systems and where the interaction between men and women has grown largely, where good education, careers etc have become a priority,its a pity that this idealogy still exists! I doubt whether after so much exposure to the outside world, one can actually even settle down with a complete stranger and live happily ever after!.If you feel this whole gamble is really not worth it please do comment on this.

Desi Rock

i love desi rock

I have a liking for Desi Rock these days. I always liked those PAK bands who were into Rock long before our desi dudes strummed on the guitar. Well, its never too late right ? Have you heard "doori" ? I love that song .. and oh yaa .. "apna koi thikaana nahi" - Atif Aslam

Cobalt Qube3

I got new toy to play with – a Cobalt Qube3. If you are wondering what a Qube3 is, it's a Network appliance that was designed by Cobalt Networks in the late 90s. Later, Cobalt Networks was acquired by Sun Microsystems and they did some redesigning on this appliance.

The Qube3 that I got is an older generation Sun appliance running some sort of Sun-Cobalt Linux. The Qube has no ports for keyboard, mouse or monitor. It just has 2 Ethernet ports (one for clean and one for dirty, if you want to use it as a firewall), a connection for power, and a small LCD with a few buttons which allows you to carry out some simple administrative tasks, like resetting the web interface, configuring the network or gracefully shutting down the box.

I moved my blogs away from here !

Welcome back ! :) Are you wondering where the old Blog went ? Well, I just took it away to some place far far away on the internet. . . . You wont see it here anymore. But don't worry, I'll keep you posted.
