Guys, I need your opinion. I've had my current PC since December 2002. Pentium 4, 256 mb Memory. Nauna nang nag-crash yung hard drive niya mga three years ago but it was still workable so I kept it and still am using it mainly storage for files and not to store the systems. I was wondering which would be a better move, to upgrade the parts or to buy a new PC altogether. Outdated na kasi yung ilang parts niya pero madali naman bilhan (DVD-rom, Graphic card). Am I better off with a new PC para lahat ng parts bago and hindi masayang yung mga upgraded parts ko kapag nasira na kalumaan yung original parts. Your opinions please....

 

 

I dont know if u know tipidpc.com

What you do is u sell those old PC parts and then buy a new updated ones...

according to the law one of the restricted/prohibited items for import is:

· Written or printed articles, negatives or film, photographs, engravings, lithographs, objects, paintings, drawings, or other representation of an obscene or immoral character.

but with the sites heading (Doing Business in the Philippines) it seems this is limited only to corporations or business. is it?

 

i'm asking because i'm planning to order internationally adult materials. for personal use of course.

 

i'm i covered by this law or any other laws? tnx.

mga sir/ experts... i have a laptop ibm t30 pwede ba to ma wifi able? may pwede ba bilhin para maging wifi to? para sa starbucks,or sa malls pwede gamitin para pwede magamit ? thanks in advance

 

Kung wala pa yang built-in wifi, you can buy a usb wifi adapter like D-Link DWL-G122 around 2K ito or kung may PCMCIA slot pa yan meron din adapter para dito like Linksys WPC54GS which is around 3K naman. Basta my kasamang CD driver ang mga bilhin mo para walang problema.

Tip, someone told me that sa lahat daw ng Robinson's mall eh may libre wifi internet access daw. :cool:

a friend is asking for help on a soon-to-be legal matter (well she hopes that it doens't end that way), so I'm turning to MTC legal gurus for advice so here goes:

 

she was recently involved in a payroll scandal (something about incentives going to the wrong person, she didn't care to elaborate more) although she claims that she wasn't involved she did receive a number of payouts from the scam.

 

She also claims that there is nothing to link her to the payouts, nothing in writing as it is not her name that appears daw in the documents. The only thing that the company has is testimony from another person involved in the scam.

 

She's asking how best to protect herself, she has been out of the company for about two months already and has signed all the neccessary clearances. Fresh start daw as she doesn't want to get involved in something like that again. She's afraid that the company will still try to get to her when they file a case against the primary suspects?

 

What's the best thing for her to do, short of leaving the country as I suggested?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

This is a he say she say matter. Baket nya kailangan umalis? i think she should consult with a prominent lawyer and ask for advice, so she would expect the worst, she has to be prepared,Kase patatawagin siya kahit anong oras eh. i can help, can you elaborate a bit more, what type of company was she involved, the nature of the workplace? please reply soon.

she used to work in a call center

 

the scam was about incentives, specifically referral incentives (sort of like a member get member thing for credit cards) she didn't say how it worked.

 

what does she need to do to prepare/protect herself.

 

aside from the claim of the other person involved, there's nothing to link her to the scam. The money is nowhere, she says she doesn't have any bank accounts, the money she got is gone in other words.

 

thanks grimace

Scam on referral incentives? How can that be a scam? If money was diverted from the proper recipients, then only those "deprived" can file a complaint.

 

To protect herself, make her write a "story" of all the events that transpired. Prepare all the documentation mentioned in her story. If she didn't benefit (money received), then it should be a problem. If she knew what was going on, then it is up to the accuser to prove conspiracy (which is hard).

Good evening po sa inyong lahat

 

Can our lawyer friends in MTC, give some legal advice please,

 

I was approached by a friend and told me this story..

 

There was a mother with a one year old son, the mother trying to earn a living by selling food in a turo-turo

One day there was a group of drunk men who went to the store, there was a heated argument regarding the ownership/ rights to operate the store.

The mother was stabbed, was taken to a private hospital and given a 50-50 chance to survive. The mother survived

but was not able to pay the more or less 50 thousand hospital bill. The management/owner of the hospital took his son

as a guarantee, .. that she would be forced to pay. Now 2 months passed, the poor woman, still not able to see his son. She is even not allowed to visit. She is now working as a housemaid.

My friend is a neighbor of this mother.

The questions...

 

1-Is this legal...the hospital keeping the boy, to force the mother to pay?

 

2- What can the mother do to gain immediate custody of her son?

If she goes to the police, is ther a chance the boy could be released immediately?

Is there any office or organization which can offer free services to help the poor woman?

question guys! i corrupted my xp when i closed my cpu while it was shutting down. now whenever i boot up my desktop, it goes to a loop. restarting always.

 

i tried opening via safe mode but still its looping. i booted via my OS thru my cd rom. i tried booting to c prompt, same thing happened. i need help.

 

Have you tried booting your XP installer CD and choosing recovery mode? Try doing a checkdisk operation there on your C: drive. If it still doesn't fix it, a format may be the only way to "restore" your computer. :headsetsmiley:

 

THE ANSWER IS YES

thanks Roubaix!

 

I don't get this though:

If she didn't benefit (money received), then it should be a problem

how can it be a problem if she didn't receive money?

Hi there. I would just like to consult the bright minds of MTC. A friend of my mine got married last year. He's 22 and the girl's 21 at the time of their civil marriage. Unfortunately, things didn't work out for the two of them. They were hitched in one of those secret marriage type of establishments in Q.C. According to him, the one who conducted the ceremony is different from the one who signed the marriage contract. And as far as he knows, the one who signed was a lawyer. As far as I can recall, only a member of judiciary or a mayor could solemnize civil marriages. Also, the information in the marriage contract were false and invalid. He was given a false address in the contract so that they could have the wedding in Q.C. The names of the witnesses in the contract were not the ones who were actually present, thus, they forged the signatures. More importantly, the parental consent for the girl was forged as well as the parental advice of my friend. Also, they did not co-habit. He checked with the NSO and their marriage is recorded there. What he'd like to know is if the marriage was null and void from the start given the invalid data and forged signatures in the contract and consent? If it is, what does he need to do? If its not, does he have legal/technical grounds to file a petition for annullment? He's also wondering how much it would cost to file for an annullment. Thanks in advance.
