This is a report for the Itanium Solutions meeting held on 14/7/09. I decided to give the title a tinge of craftiness to keep all readers interested and I hope that you will continue reading.

1. The Itanium Solutions Annual Evaluation Test

Results were announced today. Results have improved compared to last year. The top score this time is 39/50 and the proud holder is our Webmaster, Yeo Jun Rong.

2. Lessons: Cooling Systems Part 1

Lessons were indeed resumed today and we went through the cooling systems. We learned about the theory and purpose of overclocking which is largely related to cooling systems. Going on, we eventually learned about heatsinks and the fans that cool our PC. We even went through some enhancements to the cooling systems including heatpipes and thermal paste.

Today, no lessons were conducted during 12.30pm to 1.30pm period. Instead, certain things were discussed, including the…

i) University of New South Wales Computer Skills exam results. Results have greatly improved compared to last year, which included high distinctions, credits and participations. Also mentioned were the Itanium Solutions exam papers, which would be returned back next week.

ii) Reviews for PC Fair and AGM results. The PC Fair that was organized on the 1^st of August in KLCC had a good turnout. As for the AGM results, the new committee list for the year 2009/2010 was reconfirmed and revealed to members.

ANNOUNCEMENT

I am a devoted member of Itanium Solutions, ever since the time of the late Elecom Club in the year 2006. I have given various contributions to the club in the form of human resource, intellectual and even material. Also, I have served the club as the Afternoon Representative in the year 2007, Assistant Secretary in the year 2008 and most recently as Secretary for the year 2009. I have faced the thick and thins with Itanium Solutions (formerly Elecom) in the past years, and I proudly consider myself as a survivor in this aspect.

Having been in Itanium Solutions, it’s not only about learning everything related to IT, nor is it about a person being far more knowledgeable than others. As obscure as it may be, I believe being in Itanium Solutions has always been about finding solutions on maintaining a club as a whole in a deeply technical manner, through both active participation and contributions, hence the word ‘Solutions’ in Itanium Solutions. Back in the days of Elecom, when the Public Addressers were still a dominant part of the late Elecom Solutions, although our departments faced an abundance of difficulties in communications when planning joint ventures, solutions were still always conjured up through undying efforts, which made many things possible. It was not until late 2008 that communications between departments had broken down beyond the point of no return, and both departments decided to part separate ways. From then on, Elecom was no more.
