New computer bought in Sillypore,after a few years when they age and not able to function as fast or as good ,what do we do about it? Throw away? No way,some will be send to Batam to "retire",and what i am doing is giving these "old and yet functioning" computers a chance to be reborn again,using minimum resources to speed them up. Believe it or not,a P4 4GB ram computer running on Win XP can be on par with a i5 16GB computer operating on Win 8. Not forgetting the slowest computer in DC Mall are mainly on dual core processor (with a GB FSB),hehehe....which makes this place a wonderland.

Next Batam trip,i am likely to visit Kepril Mall.

Batam DC Mall computers are more advance,so no milking of gold possible,hehehe....in my last trip,i chance upon a busy village with 3 primary schools side by side each other,check out some of their homes,and NONE of them owns a computer at home. I heard the school dont have a computer for students to use too,hehehe...maybe one day can set up a few cheap cheap one and donate to the school/s. (at least thats what i had in mind during my last visit),hehehe....

100% agree! (especially the "..very very very.." part,hehehe..) Even w/o special service,it is as you have said it,expensive. Below is the price list for Montigo massage and spa service (w/o special) :

If i meant to monger around in Batam,i will not pick this resort. Unless i already have a girl which i wish to impress or i can book Montigo Resort for an extreme low price...lol.
