I went to Chintpurni Maa temple with family. We started off in the morning and reached Ludhiana by afternoon and stayed at one of my wife’s relative place. Then left Ludhiana in the morning and reached Bombay Picnic spot where we had light lunch and it was around 1 hour drive from there.

A winding road goes up to the temple dedicated to Bhagwati Chinmastika or Chinpurni - the goddess who grants all wishes. A popular place of pilgrimage, Chintpurni is about 75 km from the town of Una and 100 km from Jalandhar.

Chintpurni Maa situated in Himachal Pradesh, in Una District Chintapurni Maa Temple is also called Chinnamastika Devi Temple. Maa Chintapurni is famous for her virtues and whosoever visits this shrine gets absolves of all his/her worries. It is believed that Satis feet fell at this place.

Other day while coming back from office I heard about kijiji.in website ad on FM, its a free local classifieds for apartments, electronics, cars, jobs, services, community, events and more.

I planned that I will put an ad to sell my laptop which my father got me from US recently. I reached home and checked out the site, though the site interface was neat and clean I did not find many ad but I thought about posting the ad(here’s the ad) anyways as it was absolutely free.

They have a different URL for each of the five cities where they have operations : Bangalore, Chennai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Mumbai.

I got this wonderful piece of laptop(Dell Inspiron 6000) from US. I have been wanting to have a laptop for quite sometime now. I worked little bit on it and it was fun working on it , you can understand getting your hands on shining silver metallic notebook. Everything was quite good about considering that it was not that expensive apart from he fact that its sound quality left a lot to be desired.

Now i come to the point that why i decided to sell - I had wanted to install Windows XP Professional on it(as I wanted to have Dot net framework + Microsoft SQL Desktop Edition) and it had preinstalled Windows XP Media Center Edition. I tried searching on the net how to go about it and I read on several forums that after installing XP Pro some people faced issues with drivers & it does not work properly with the any outisde version of XP and as there was no CD provided along I finally decided to sell it and get myself a desktop PC. So if anyone wantes to get a laptop they should tell in advance their preference of OS before buying. I still have to wait for sometime before I get a better piece.
