Have just got around to creating a VM in VirtualBox with Win8 on it .... apart from the cool lock screen which I just like looking at and slightly nicer looking Solitaire, where should I start poking around to see what's new?

I like the way seven combines the quicklaunch bar with open windows. I too hate the way xp grouped open windows - but then i hate having more windows open than is necessary. I can put up with the huge square icons but only because I have a large resolution that makes them look the same size as xp's taskbar.

oh bloody hell, now I just look ridiculous

i may have used that one, some of them come with an option to delete the dupe and replace it witha shortcut to the original file.

sorry for the necRo post are people still doing this? I've had my wii for years but only got internet in September. bought my little boy a second hand one for Christmas and had to wipe the internal memory too, but its got a parental lock and we don't know the code, gonna have to ring Nintendo soon does anyone know what kind of bandwidth the wii uses?

and firefox nightly bumps itself up to version twelve I got a popup from avg earlier complaining about Firefox ... apparently its memory usage had jumped up to over 350mb! I've always loved it but my love is starting to wane. Opera works fine on my phone but apparently my processor isn't good enough to run firefox mobile ...

Bloody hell .... Apparently they're up to version 11 now .... well that's broken all my addons

Just skip the pointless OMG NEW VERSION and change your update channel to Nightly, I've been on version 10 for weeks now. And I must admit .... I can't see any difference in it from version 5, 6, 7, 8 beta, 9 alpha, and so on....

There's a whole site dedicated to this: Probably semi NSFW: Autocomplete Me - Epic Fail Funny Videos and Funny Pictures Good for a laugh though

Just been prompted to upgrade Firefox version number is ...... 10.0a1

I like the fact that you don't have to install six million "security updates for Mozilla Firefox", it just updates the core program, so you've got one nice up to date package. Even installing IE8 on a PC here would require an age downloading the updates through Win Update. I could just download the latest Firefox and be done. Although I must admit ... version 7? I've been using version 9 for months

Don't know if this helps but we sent my wife's car in for a full service a little while ago. Hadn't been properly serviced in years, or well looked after. Needed basically the front suspension ripping out and replacing (it's a ten-year old Skoda Fabia), as well as new air filter, coolant/brake fluid/oil change, new tyres, (iincluding balancing etc), the steering wheel was realigned, new brake pads and discs, a bearing in the back wheel - basically everything but the cam belt, as it's a pushrod engine. Cost us about £800 - which doesn't seem too bad, until you realise the car only cost us £750 to buy

I'm sure it's better for you having decent shoes that fit properly, but ... £100 every six months? I'm quite happy with a twenty quid pair of trainers that last me for a year

me, wife, two kids and a dog, and our weekly food shop is £100 a week. pretty much get everything from Asda.

Loaded up firefox at work this morning ... we're up to 9 ... I'm sure there's a spinal tap joke in there somewhere
