Yet another disappointment.....

Got this email from my fav magic store....

Hi,Unfortunately, Exxxxxxxxx is unable to process orders to Malaysia at this moment. Customs, USPS and FEDEX were returning most of our packages, creating a very bad situation for our customers and for Exxxxxxxx.We are requesting information on what is necessary in order to change that, but are unable to ship orders to your country. We apologize for the inconvenience.Thanks!

I bought my first magic DVD from this magic store back in 2003. The last DVD I bought was last year and last month, they released a superb CIB(those in magic should know what is this) effect and I wanted to get it. Trying to log in using my existing account and it doesn't work.

Then I went to My Account link and there it was....the notice that returning customer have to recreate their account and when i tried to do that, I can't find Malaysia in their country field.
So that was the replied email from customer support, telling me I can't buy their stuff.

Disappointed :(

My training on Designing Application Architecture.

Ok this might be a bit boring to talk about so I won't blog about the details. I have been to this training for the past 4 days(mon to fri) to learn about this on which I thought I should have had enough experience. But how wrong i was when the course started. Well it does tell you about the tiers(or you can call it *tears* as what the trainer describe hehe....) but I have all the wrong perception/definition on the word tier itself.

And with all the new 2008 techs jumping in (WPF, WCF, WF), my mind was going left and right, feeling confused...(luckily it's not that hard as you know MS like to make our life easier). It was definitely a good technical training for me and the rest of my colleagues but then implementation point of view...... that would be another question. One thing for sure, I will definitely try to design solution in this way whenever possible.
