Really living up to your name there liking it

@SimonLewin thanks for that reply on your BETT status. Also in regards to the comments from @Stopfords truly inspirational stuff I look forward to his/hers further contributions on the forum. Its funny this is the 2nd time I have seen a new user with 0 previous posts who happens to sign up on the same day someone mentions Bromcom in a slightly negative light...funny that on that one hasn't posted since their first comment either.

I think my heart would be in my mouth until I got into work if I scheduled updates..prefer to watch it fail in front of my eyes

Blimey bet that was an interesting few days :| lol

Well used in both our labs the only thing I could say is its pretty expensive considering we only really use the classroom management side of it.

So progressive they don't regularly attend the BETT Show?

We have SIMS - ermm well yeah read the forum you should get a feel for it Ones I would look at; DoubleFirst Engage (saw at BETT looked very good and it appears to be a very dynamic team behind it really wiling to work with you) Integris G2 (used a lot in my local area) Ones I personally don't like: Bromcom

Same much excitement!

I normally ignore the nutrition page lol! Best thing about this app is if you use it long enough you automatically start to store in your head the calories for certain items eventually you won't even need to log it. You can self calculate throughout the day it is also quite funny calling out the calories on items your friends are about to eat/buy then seeing if you get it right KitKat being the easiest (107 for the original or did it shoot up to 110 now?)

I was going great guns on the weight loss but busted my ankle playing ice hockey and basically had 2-3 months of doing nothing slowly getting back on my bike now but still waiting for MRI scans etc nightmare!!! but its really made me focus on what I am eating, recently discovered water cress the stuff is great if you get bored of regular salad. First summer holiday abroad for years and years coming up in August so got to get trim boom

Nice handwriting

Did my spring upgrade on Thursday night. Took about 4 hours in total (I have to update vDisks etc). All seemed OK came in Friday few machines not playing ball not really seen this message before but a lot of machines saying update process already running or something similar like that when I forced it to check for update on SOLUS3. Redeployed a few workstations not too bad.

Lovely birds

I believe we have got reports going out next week....anyway In progress

On the speaker front I would recommend looking at maybe Vision SP1600's paired with a Vision Techconnect TC3 Amp get the bass absolutely licking on those things and of course good for classroom videos etc blah Edit: sorry I thought you were looking at new SmartBoards...obviously those LED jobs will come with built in sound so yeah ignore me..or get yourself some speakers for the office why not

Bloody hell I am about to deploy tomorrow night, what we saying chaps/chapesses worth it?

What can say maark money to burn money to burn....joking. 5 years seems about right mate I mean IBM won't give us an extended warranty so if they did I would probably keep them but as localzuk says the risk of unsupported server is far to high especially as we run loads of provisioned machines. I had some servers at my last place nearly 8 years old heart was in my mouth every morning I went in to work really don't like that feeling.

My new place is pretty cool replaced servers every 5 years, extended warranties on them all, all the same brand. About to see a couple of 5 year old ones get replaced this summer so looking to keep those as test servers or just to play around with

Are we not having it all week ?

Who you with bud? E2BN Protex?

Gaming (DOTA2, CS:GO, Cities Skylines etc), Play ice hockey, Keen cyclist Road and MTB, Photography (new hobby), Swimming, Walking usual stuff

Get yourself a road bike ditch the treadmill free your mind... Go where you like, like where you go

I ordered about 30 units from VeryPC for my old school. Unfortunately there were a few delays but these were out of VeryPC's hands think there was a supply chain issue with the chassis so the order came very bit part and late but I have to say they were fantastic about it and took the whole thing very seriously I was in the processes of moving to another school at the time so it was all very stressful didn't want my last project there to be a balls up

I got Colin over at VeryPC just ship me load of parts and built this myself; VeryPC Flex chassis Core i5 4GB DDR3 120 SSD Other crap Wireless KB/Mouse Ozone gaming mousepad Dual Acer monitors (which are crap) Does what I need boom

Good thinking I checked and it runs overnight bud, I ran it manually the last few times when re-provisioning users. I am encouraging the use of our remote so people are now just using full SIMS from home suits me maybe ween them off SLG and ditch it save some dollar.
