Dear friends the following is being shared with intention of making a difference for those in dire need of help. We can make a difference together.
Siddique bhai through #alkhidmat are striving hard to make these possible. Please contribute where you can but asap.

There has been Mashallah a massive response for the support in designing the low cost ventilator for distribution to hospitals. We are in process of making 3-4 prototypes inshallah in karachi and islamabad.

Most of the people want to support with FUNDING. We DONOT need funding at the moment. We need dedicated resources.

If you can help us in a DEDICATED manner.. then please join one of the teams as per your expertise.

1. We need a dedicated team who can develop a professional webpage and handle it and keep things updated there.

WindowsVerse to MacVerse

WindowsVerse to MacVerse

Living in windows-OS ecosystem, I have seen it evolve from Windows 95, all the way to Windows 10. I would have not even thought of taking the hyperjump to MacVerse. But unimaginable, and unthinkable happens when you lease expect it and catches you kind of off guard, unprepared at first.  I must admit occasional InterOS travels from WinVerse to LinuxVerse only for exploratory puruposes, visiting here and there with no plan of living there, as the main base has always been in Winverse
Mac vs Windows, How to Choose Which Suits You Best - ShopNani

InterOS-verse migration

Now that I have joined the new job, I was given a brand new MacBook Pro. I should be happy right? But inside I was afraid to key in and start the migration. I was hinted to go ahead and keep Base at Winverse however given the fact that  rest of the fleet would be in Macverse I took the challenge and decided to interOS-verse immigrate after living in WinVerse for all of my conscience years.

First few days, I was feeling for the keyboard, even the scroll was upside down or down side up which ever way you call it. 

I would keep you posted nevertheless.
