    Engaged!

    You cynic! Not silly at all, she is the most wonderful person I could ever imagine, so why am I silly?!

    Engaged!

    Another engaged 'geek here! After a lovely romantic meal on Friday, I popped the question to Melanie and she said yes! Just had to share that news
  3. Yes, we have lots here. The only thing is you often need to install some drivers manually after the build completes (unless you add them to build area). Our latest ones are the TravelMate 5720/5730 series - they work fine as long as the hard disk mode is set to IDE and not SATA in the BIOS.
  4. It'll be the overlay settings - that'll solve the problem for sure
  5. You'll need another 10k to insure something like that!
  6. Having said that, it's the same with O2, but I have had their broadband for over a year now and it's been excellent - only one glitch when the box they provided broke, but swapped for a decent Netgear router and it's all been plain sailing
  7. Don't knock it, I met the love of my life through that site!
  8. Our neighbours keep chickens and they sometimes give us fresh eggs - they're fantastic, much tastier than the ones you get in shops!
  9. Congratulations! I'm hoping not to be too far behind you
  10. Yeah, beware here. I did this on an O2 phone a while back, and despite having a sufficient amount of data included, sending two e-mails cost me around £3! Because it was done via a laptop and not the phone itself.
  11. Funnily enough, same here - there's a bit of an eg pattern emerging! It's all quite new, but it's amazing and this weekend is going to be spent celebrating her birthday, and includes meeting the parents! Scary stuff!!
  12. OK, well, the 70% of you who said 'OK' were correct - after clicking OK, it went on and burned the DVD without issues!
  13. This week's prize for the most useless warning message goes to Adobe for this classic from Premiere Elements. Trying to burn a DVD, been rendering all day, and threw up this warning as soon as it started to try and burn the disc. Question is, which answer do we pick?
  14. Here you goSubscriber_Manual.pdf
  15. Got mine today - thanks Mandy! :-)
  16. Hi all, Hoping someone can help here - looking for a good price on a laptop for personal purchase/use. Been looking at Toshiba and their current cashback offer. Couple of models in mind: Satellite Pro L300-292 or Satellite Pro L300-28W On a bit of a budget so need a good price - will have to be inc vat as it's a personal purchase. Please PM me with prices, or for more details if you need. Suggestions for other makes with similar spec would be accepted, although price would need to be stellar without the cashback! Cheers!
  17. Used to drive a Clio, but recently treated myself to a lovely Megane Cabriolet It's great - 1.9 Diesel with 130bhp, yet manages 48mpg (real life use) and will do 400 miles commuting on country roads and in town on less than £40 worth of diesel. And the 6 speed gearbox lets you cruise at 60-70 while pulling less than 2000rpm on the engine. Smoooth! Never had a diesel before this one, but certainly won't be the last. They don't have to be sluggish when you get the hang of how to handle them! And being able to pop the roof down as soon as the sun shows itself is great!
  18. Are these eligible for the Windows 7 upgrade program at all? What about memory expansion - do they have empty slots, or it is a complete change of ram to upgrade
  19. I've still got one - with the lovely red screen. Still worked last time I turned it on too - but only had DOS!
  20. Try CPC - they have a range of aerials. If it's the original factory 'beesting' aerial, it should be a cheap screw-in replacement
  21. Another nod the a200 here - our ICT department have one and they love it!
  22. Two ideas - 1. you could try a very small grinder attachment in something like a Dremel to cut a small slot in the top of the bolt and then use a screwdriver to remove it. Perhaps ask the DT department if you're in a school? 2. I see you are local to me - if your looking at the idea of getting a replacement 'aerial base' from a scrapyard, try Harris's in Nutbourne (along the A259 between Emsworth and Chichester). I've not been there for a few years, but they used to be very good, and you could still go and rummage around the cars to find what you were looking for. Got lots of bits to smarten up my old Renault 19 for a very reasonable price - although that was about 5 years ago now. Hope this helps! Chris
  23. I'd hazard a guess that it was probably Kell Systems Kell Systems - Acoustic Server Cabinets They look good, but they also look expensive - I always think the lack of any price info on a website is ominous!! Hope this helps though.
  24. Just a quick bump on this now it's the start of a new working day. Also an amendment - apparently, the media studies teacher needs Final Cut Studio Expressions of interest, please, and I will PM details for quotes to be sent. Thanks!
  25. Hi, Just wondering if anyone knows of a good source for domain registrations where we can set them up by purchase order and pay by invoice? Thanks :-)
