And how about this then from 1997:

I must be sad as I came across this the other day and went all nostalgic:

I just opened a package and some usb sticks in the shape of pink pigs flew out and shot out of the window.

I've seen suppliers charge up to £150+ for a refurbed board with a 60 day warranty for this PC. Why not push the boat out and go for a HP Proliant N40L Microserver - £111.63 from SERVERSDIRECT.CO.UK after the £88.34 HP CASHBACK OFFER (prices ex.vat)?

I've been looking at a network. I've got a bit of a head scratcher with a Folder Redirection problem. It only affects one suite of computers. It's a 2003 server environment with XP clients. The users have no problems in the other computer suites. In this particular PC suite, it looks like the redirection for My Documents has gone awol. It bizarrely looks like it is trying to use a student account on the server that was created to test the original server setup, called 'Test User'...!? Not all users are affected in the room and not all the same computers when it happens - it seems to vary. What I do know has happened recently is that XP SP3 has been installed along with Office 2010 and SP1 on the machines. I know there are issues with the sp3 fdeploy.dll and some users have solved their problems by swapping it with a SP2 version but I'm confused as to what is happening and why the wrong My Documents is being redirected. The application event log shows an event ID 107 error: "Failed to perform redirection of folder My Documents. The folder is configured to be redirected from <\\server-name\users\test user> to <\\server-name\users\year11\fbloggs>. The following error occurred: Access is denied." What happens though is the My Documents folder for the test account called 'Test User' is loaded for the student. Looking on the server at the user configuration folder redirection My Documents settings for the student GPO, the path is set to \\%homeshare%%homepath% - it's set to redirect to the user's home dir. The users don't have any problems elsewhere with the other computers on the site. I'm confused. Help!

I remember him from my childhood when he was in Doctor Who: And Dad's Army: A great actor: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-17255287

Interesting that you've posted this. We've got an HP 8000 Elite SFF that has suddenly decided that it's got a PCI Serial Port and an Unknown Device and keep kicking up a fuss for drivers although reinstalling the drivers from the HP site doesn't work. We removed XP Pro and stuck Windows 7 Pro on and so far the problem hasn't returned.

Until last year we still had some Dell GX150s chugging along. They were purchased back in 2002.

Set up a little ubuntu suite and let the geeks amongst your kids play?

Sexually? Yes.

Lol, are they on drugs?

Yikes!

We use PaperCut here and it has made a significant difference - waste has been reduced.

At least he was wearing some eye protection...

Whilst travelling around Israel last year we passed through this place: Shitim, Israel - Google Maps Mrs.Tech_Guy told me to grow up and stop sniggering like a six-year old.

No, we have a friend staying for three months who is German and is missing his soap operas!

It had just landed so the rotors must have been deployed correctly for flight?

On a slightly different note. How easy is it to get German TV in the UK via satellite?

Yikes: BBC News - Four injured as helicopter breaks up landing in Brazil Amazing no-one was killed.

I'm probably late in becoming aware of this and it's probably already been mentioned on here but CloudOn is now available as a free dowload in the UK from the App Store. Brilliant on my iPad - I can now work with all my Word, PowerPoint and Excel files that are in my DropBox account. Awesome! I don't need a laptop anymore now!

Or you could go via Haseley Knob, which is only a slight detour?

Is there a way of doing screen captures on the HTC Desire with Android 2.2?

We use PRM Green too - very helpful and very efficient.

I ended up modding a trolley - drilling holes in the shelves and partitions and using plastic cable ties to keep all the cables in place. It took a day but it was worth it.
