  1. Get a project box and write 'MOBILE PHONE DETECTOR' on it. Drill a hole and put a flashing LED through the hole. Connect the two legs of the LED to a battery. That'd do exactly the same thing as a real one here!
  2. My phone has a flight mode - you wouldn't find me Just remove anyone from the exam if they are found with a phone? Why do problems like this become IT problems?
  3. Post is filled - anyone care to let us know what it said... By the way - I think women are awesome
  4. 2 technicians for about 450 XP clients - 4 servers and lots of lovely, lovely PDAs 1 technician (me) for the training centre - 70 XP machines, IP cameras etc
  5. Be careful not to confuse NQT with NVQ NQT = Newly Qualified Teacher (1st year fully qualified) NVQ = National Vocational Qualification I would give them a call to discuss the second point - we could read it in a few different ways and you don't want it to be the sticking point at interview.
  6. Chop something off?

    I have sent Steve a PM. My position is this - I have raised issues and an engineer from another company has responded. Twice I have had replacement parts arrive without contact followed shortly, again twice, by an engineer to fit the parts. I have now arranged for this engineer to resolve the issues he can and report back on the others at the next date the room is available - the 18th December. I could mention more specific problems and promises made but, for now, I'm waiting on somebody resolving the problems we have.
  8. Last minute? I haven't started yet!!! ARGH! iPoods all round then!
  9. LOL - this is an old thread to revive, I know! I've actually moved though! Since June I've had another house fall through and now, finally, I've moved back out of my parents into a new house with new broadband - connected the first day and averaging 12-15Mbps... Uploads are at a steady 760kbps
  10. Here here ](*,) I have seen the future. They do use wireless. Everywhere
  11. I feel that you do not have the right to go looking through a flash drive because you've found it. I wouldn't even put it near a network computer because it could contain all sorts of nasties designed to do damage to the network. Pupils personal areas of the network should be monitored and the pupils understand that this is done. The flash drive is personal property though, if they're not allowed in school then treat it like anything else that isn't allowed. If they are then it should be assumed that the contents are school related. Would you go through a mobile phone reading the text messages?
  12. *wakes up* Did someone say 'BETT'?

    @Opsman - PM sent. Don't think for a second that posting on a forum was the first time you had a chance to find out about the problems we've had.
  14. I reckon I'd get something from x beer brand if I sent them a photo of a three peice suite of crates! Really tempted now - seriously - anyone wanna donate? My friend wrote a poem on her blog about RedBull - I sent them an email and we received a crate of 24 cans each... Cheap advertising you see - like I'm telling you lot now! BUY REDBULL!
  15. I have 'calculated' that I'll only need between 18 and 21 crates to build myself a sofa and for a small additional investment I could construct a proper 'admin fort'... donations accepted *wanders off to make PayPal button* LOL
  16. Because... ...read: they haven't got round to banning unhacked consoles?
  17. How interesting... (sigh)
  18. I agree - the rest is awesome Seven servers serving Classic
  19. Sounds like a plan. I was tempted to buy biggest sofa I could find and take some tips from 'Office Space' - my dad reckons they'd take 6 months to evict me from my new house if I did NOTHING. He did not recommend it... in fact, he looked concerned I'd asked the question...
  20. LOL! I'd always wondered what that button did!
  21. Shiny new 500GB drive is dead this morning. Life isn't worth living anymore POOR ME!!!
  22. There's actually a wizard in Acronis - follow that - very easy
  23. We do- I used to be on it but got annoyed with getting so many messages. It's a good suggestion but for the moment I think we'll just wait until we find items of furniture we can agree on... There are some things that it'd be better to just have two of, aren't there? At least I have a garage space for my projects and toys
  24. I've got a spare bedroom Wifi too!
  25. BETT is all about saving on stationary! FREE THINGS! Yay!
