80 GB won't last you long. if you're getting Intel Pentium 4, then probably 2.4 GHz is more realistic, you wouldn't want to have to buy another computer next year. :-( Get at least 128 MB memory on the video card. Try to get the motherboard with PCI-Express if you can afford it.

 

If the motherboard supports dual-channel, try to get 2 pcs. of RAM (512 MB = 256 MB + 256 MB)

 

Also, you might want to consider SATA Hard Disks, instead of PATA/IDE Hard Disks. Try to have a motherboard with a network card built-in.

Peepz ano ba ang speed na katumbas ng AMD Sempron 3000 sa Pentium 4?

When the AMD says 3000 it's approximately equivalent to a Pentium 4 3.0 GHz, or at least that's the official claim. So you should expect performance close to a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz, I think. :-)

is there a way to view/obtain the icons from a microsoft application... like ms office, excel, ms money, etc?

[oliverjohnholmes]

 

here's another labor law inquiry...

 

is Brent v. Zamora (extension of probationary employment) still good law? Would a second extension sought by the probie-employee not run afoul of existin statutes?

 

secondly, are sales personnel entitled to overtime pay? would an employer edict of number of hours per week necessarily remove them from the class distinction under labor law for sales personnel?

 

sorry if i keep asking, have an idea but i am just testing my argument...

let us predicate this discussion on the law creating the Ombudsman, which states:

REPUBLIC ACT No. 6770

 

AN ACT PROVIDING FOR THE FUNCTIONAL AND STRUCTURAL ORGANIZATION OF THE OFFICE OF THE OMBUDSMAN AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

 

Section 13. Mandate. - The Ombudsman and his Deputies, as protectors of the people, shall act promptly on complaints filed in any form or manner against officers or employees of the government, or of any subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, including government-owned or controlled corporations, and enforce their administrative, civil and criminal liability in every case where the evidence warrants in order to promote efficient service by the Government to the people.

Section 15. Powers, Functions and Duties. - The Office of the Ombudsman shall have the following powers, functions and duties:

x x x x

 

(2) Direct, upon complaint or at its own instance, any officer or employee of the Government, or of any subdivision, agency or instrumentality thereof, as well as any government-owned or controlled corporations with original charter, to perform and expedite any act or duty required by law, or to stop, prevent, and correct any abuse or impropriety in the performance of duties;

 

Section 19. Administrative Complaints. - The Ombudsman shall act on all complaints relating, but not limited to acts or omissions which:

 

(1) Are contrary to law or regulation;

 

(2) Are unreasonable, unfair, oppressive or discriminatory;

 

(3) Are inconsistent with the general course of an agency's functions, though in accordance with law; Proceed from a mistake of law or an arbitrary ascertainment of facts; Are in the exercise of discretionary powers but for an improper purpose; or Are otherwise irregular, immoral or devoid of justification.

 

as above stated, the Ombudsman has jurisdiction only on acts which are directly related to the performance of the duties and responsibilities of a government official. While it is true that the person who committed the deed is a government official, it must be first determined if the same was done while in the performance of the functions of the office. this can be easily determined by the factual circumstances of the act itself: time, place, supposed acts constituting a crime which wassaid would be performed upon the person etc etc....

 

so it would be safer to have the incident entered into the police record (blotter) and then file a complaint for grave threats or light threats. the difference between the two is that the acts said to be inflicted constitutes a crime and light threats for acts not constituting a crime or for any enumerated under the revised penal code...let them claim the affirmative defense of jurisdiction over the crime...

 

just my two cents...

well writing a letter would be the way to do it...send it to four agencies namely: the department head of where the person sought to be investigated holds office (is this the same case as the DPWH inquiry earlier?), the Ombudsman (you can even leave an unsigned letter complaint of the person, office is near SM Manila), The Presidential Anti Graft Commission (State Accounting Building, UP Diliman fronting Commonwealth Ave) and the Bureau of Internal Revenue (for tax evasion)...if you canspare pictures of alleged ill gotten wealth then include it in your letter...

 

also there's always the fourth estate...the Philippine Center for Investigative Journalism, the Tulfo siblings, Imbestigador and other similar minded shows...

 

just be safe as you go about it...

 

may the Force be with you on your journey...
