Gah, more than likely, my appologies.

Beyond fags as cigs, I'm pretty sure faggots are meatballs in England, aren't they? :wave: Sorry but no, meatballs are definitely meatballs in the UK. Faggots are either bundles of sticks for fuel or a particularly nasty slang term for homosexual males! :) I'm afraid I have to disagree, sure the fi...

I've been holding out getting a new computer just so I can skip Vista and go directly to Windows 7. I recall reading an article that a lot of the decline in computer sales can be attributed to a lot of users doing the same because of the suckiness of Vista. There's also a case of the system quality...

Oh god don't remind me. I was doing some edu rebuilds down here and was told to scrap anything short of a P3/AMD 400 with 256Megs of RAM. I scrapped quite a bit. The rest went BACK into service with a clean XP build, and this was only about 3 years ago. *Shudder*. They had P1 166's with 64 Megs of R...

The only problems with x64 are hardware compatibilty. Peripherals are the worst, printers, webcams etc. But if all of your devices are supported by x64 and you have a 64 bit CPU its senseless to run in 32 bit.

Maybe it's something to do with USA support, as I've got corp support in the UK (as standard) which is UK based. I spoke to them yesterday about something.

Depends /which/ Dell you have. The business series and their support tend to be very good. I wouldn't be so sure about the home series and its support.

So today I got proactive: I opened the computer box and got in there (carefully) with my vacuum nozzle. I made sure the fans got dusted out and everything, and there was a LOTTA cat and dog and human detritus in that machine. Then I noticed that the fan directly over the processor thingy had a sort...

I bloody hate SQL.

It's usability depends all upon which set of libraries you use. Bad ones make it totally useless. I also hate Borland's ruddy datastructure. It's a pain in the backside at the best of times. Also not very fond of escaping strings. Oh well. It all works now.

Oh and there is such a beast as XP x64. I'm sniffing at it, but I'm not encouraged by the speed that DX10/11 are moving at. I will need those at some point, and MS don't seem to want to let XP have them.

For run, use the Win+R shortcut or type the name into the search box on the start menu and press ctrl+enter EDIT: Oh an I've just remembered that if you buy/have bought a Dell with Windows Vista from June 26th, you may be eligable for a free Win7 upgrade https://win7.dell.com/Eligibility.aspx

I'm using a Linksys WRT54GL, it's rock solid and very dependable, but I couldn't say if it'd work with your setup. I think mine was pretty expensive, but there are some now on amazon for about $60.

Doing... Standing on top of the cinema having climbed up. Can see the whole town from here, very high. If I fall, I'm history. It's all worth it. Thoroughly contented now. Good wireless reception on top of your cinema, I take it. Hope you made it down. LOL nah, was using internet on my cellphone. Y...

Too busy, ha, I'm always bloody busy :(. No rest for the wicked and all that (looking at YOU, phpmail) Thanks Kotik, this is mjimeyg's baby, so you'd probably be best talking to him about it.
