Well we had our cable installed today and I am like :D :D :D :D :D There are only two things that I dont like so far but these are far outweiged by the speed of it. 1) I have no idea how much of it I have used. 2) There are like a billion lights flashing at me at the moment on both the modem and the router, and its made even worse that they arent flashing in sync with each other they're all flashing at different times :wacko: Lcukily the instructions have come in handy for once especially with them having about 10 languages as I have put them up infront of the modem and router so that I...

my keybourd's don't have a credit card swipe Oho Ian, what a concept! You realise you've just described the Next Big Internet Thing? Now: your keyboard or mine?? Oh yea of little knowledge :D Those keyboards are already available :blink: Not in my house if I can possibly avoid it. At present they have at least to heave themselves out of the chair to go and swipe the card, down at the store (for those not-online-purchases). Think of the astronomical gym fee costs if that last little bit of exercise were to be removed from their lives. Everything "new" that is shoved...

:lol: Great vid! Where I am from in Southern England, we have a (friendly) rivalry with people from 'up north', and we are always making fun of them, so I really appreciate the humor there. Anyone seen the Month Python 'four yorkshire men' skit? Also, I am not sure if any of you will approve of this, but if you share my sense of humor then check Borat out. Also MoonTV , a kiwi skit show which screens on TV2 :lol:

:lol:

Must say I haven't had much of a handle on the Intel product line of late. Moore's Law said that processing power would double every 18 months. Well that's no longer the case, and I suspect they hit a brick wall in the production of thinner faster cooler silicon. Most chips now run at under 3 GHz and rely on either multithreading (Good for simming) or multicore (Not much good for simming). But if you paid money for a Pentium-D Intel dual-core processor you have been robbed. This from the latest PCWorld: They ran super-hot, performed poorly and were merely a stop-gap measure......

check out download.com next time your bored ;) got some reasonable freeware games there. James

I'M not really in a hurry at the moment to get FSX,I'll just wait until all the hoop-la and smoke clears then make a decission.What I will do for the moment is sit on the fence,I know the feedback at the moment is good but its early days yet and at the moment I'M having a ball on FS9.There's one other reason also.My current computer runs FS9 just great,but I doubt if it would run FSX to the same extent,so therefore I would have to build another computer to cope with that.I can wait 12 months if I have to ,by that time the price of motherboards and processors would have come...

ill think about it trolly, cheers. I will wait till I get a computer first, then Ill see what it needs :lol:

speaking of annoying little flash games, the helicopter game is always a classic: and so is rockface rescue:

Watch part 1 first its an absolute crack up :D

P: Noise coming from under instrument panel. Sounds like a midget pounding on something with a hammer. S: Took hammer away from midget.

its all about the pixel shaders and memory size, rather than which interface it uses

Cheers guys!!! Wasn't a bad day, no 206 though unfortunately Alister :lol: :plane: I can go to the casino now too, but I guess that's about the only new thing :D

ahh yes, i agree completely with the overpriced bit BUT for those who want a laptop because they simply cant get a desktop for some reason, they can be lifesavers, especially for gamers like me :) However, I would never think about getting something like that one because 1. Imagine the noise and heat it would make... 2. The price tag 3. you do something wrong, the thing goes poof, and you say "My, what a wast of 6 grand" 4. If your that serious about gaming, why buy a laptop My laptop seems to be able to provide everything I need- mobile gaming. :clap: (and it only cost 1/4 the...

Does anyone know how I could get a copy of the safety video.

i use regscrub xp for mine. It doesnt clean up any useful stuff, but it deletes extra stuff such as old uninstalled utilities, leftover junk from programmes, etc. I got it from reading an article about computer security in my local newspaper, so it is spyware free.

And I still haven't seen "River Queen" but note it's now out on DVD. My Mum draged me along to that one, I personally didn't like it at all, it was all dark and bad qualitly filming IMO. My favorite tv shows would have to be startrek and the new Dr Who series that played this year and last year (this years season just finshed, I hope theres a season next year :P ) James

i'm not really a big fan of british comedy, but i did like The Jim Tavaré Show and trigger happy tv when they played
