My daughter is currently into the Fimbles On the other topic, disposables are our choice

They have enough trouble making kids actually attend schools til 16, let alone 18 Still, on the plus side, that means more users, thus more work, so more budget !!! What do you mean no????

*climbs sulkily back in his cage and hangs the "Do not speak of women and PCs in the near vicinity" sign back up* (linky no work Russ, but I suspect I know the picture )

WOOHOOO !!! Female tech PC babe stack overflow error !! *shakes uncontrollably and collapses in a exhausted heap of mental images on his keyboard*

I bet she does ! I bet she does ! *nod nod , wink wink* Say no more !!

Its at this point, that I , as is my duty as a male computer nerd, have to begin drooling and filling my mind with lustful thoughts at the prospect of computer savvy females in the vicinity. Its not a conscious thing, its simply evolution, decades of compnerding creating electrical pulses in the binarythalimus section of the brain, which in turn form images of scantily clad tech women sat at a PC. These same chemicals cause the thought of a female gamer to stir the same kinds of stimulation that women eating a flake in the old adverts used to stir in normal men. Its truly an unavoidable side effect of computers. I hear the EC are commissioning a study into its effects. Nevertheless, welcome to the boards, and excuse any of us whose typing becomes a little erratic whilst posting in your threads

As long as its not something like.... Maggie is 12 years old, which we shall call A, Michael is 3 years older. How would you write Michaels age in algebra form. A - A+3 B - Chris Tarrant C - Chocolate Dumplings D - Down at the bottom of the garden Though that would probably be the A-Level version of the question, the GCSE one would probably be "Write your name, if you spell it right you get an A*"

Excellent...now we have that WoW emulator server we have been after

I still see testing being online in 5 years time. This ICT test style might have fallen, but I expect they will come up with something else to take its place

Bah...turns out that there has been many successful libel and slander cases in the last 6 months against blog sites and forums. The end of freedom of expression on the internet? Damn..now I cant slag off microsoft, RM, Labour governments, George Bush or Man Utd anymore on the internet. Well, thats going to seriously hamper how much I can post on the net hehe...oh well. I will duly cave in to those who have power and amend my words. (LOL, amazingly, having read further, one person had to pay £12,500 in damages just for calling someone a "nonce" and a "lard brain"....hahah, can you imagine that. "Tell you...that Steve Mclaren is a right nonce for playing Lampard on the wing last weekend, what a twat !" ...right sonny...thats £12000 please !) Legal Disclaimer : *Steve Mclaren reference and wording as example, no intent or belief was aimed in associating his name with the terms nonce and twat*

I was referring to the article Interesting point you bring up though, I wonder what recourse Becta would have for me expressing my opinions on a privately owned forum. Thats definately worth my investigating, not purely for becta of course, but I am curious to know if there are any legalities that can be brought against someones personal forums...for instance, I run a WoW forum for a guild, now if I decide to slag Blizzard off on my forums, I wonder what legal powers Blizzard could use to force me to shut up. Curious. Thats the great thing about forums and the ability to freely express opinions, it brings up all sorts of interesting sidelines like this which extend our knowledge *off to search the net for legal standpoints on expression of views on privately owned websites*

Got to admit, with the government nothing surprises me. *further comments deleted in fear of the police state*

*waits for another phone call to come in saying that one of the letter e's is backwards on the logo* Some people

I highly recommend 2 gig for PC gaming. On a sidenote, I got a free Xbox 360 this week and bought Rainbow Six Vegas for it, got to admit its a damned good game. Nice looking, play wells and runs like a smoothy cream dream on the xbox

We have our backupexec backing up to a Ultrium 3 Autoloader, the backup is around 174g, and is scheduled to run overnight. We use 2 sets of 5 tapes, so we have a 2 week rotation of backups. Ours backups directly to the tape, and in the past we have simply selected the relevant date marked backup as listed in Backupexecs restore options and restored individual folders or files if needed. Thats using backupexec version 10.0.5484

Well to be fair..christmas (as a holiday) , was pretty crap. No snow , and of course I am used to 8ft of snow at that time of year, crap tv. In fact, if it wasnt for the decorations and presents, it could have been a week and a half off at any time of the year. However........ Bethany, and the chance to spend some decent time with her, was utterly utterly fantastic. She was awesome, and being with her was more awesome No DX10 card yet..I'm still waiting for ATI to release theirs, as the Nvidia drivers are still about as much use as a monochrome plasma screen

We had our Bethany by c-section, was all done and dusted in about 10 mins. They let me sit in on it in my george clooney scrubs Best of luck to you, cold hearted skeptical homicidal uncaring racist scum I might be, but nevertheless the best thing in life is your kid. This first christmas with Bethany was utterly awesome..made me never want to leave her side

Funnily enough , I just finished setting up our Bursars Tytan phone/PDA thing so it would access our outlook web access server while she is down in the antipodes for 6 weeks. I created a ss certificate myself using a guide that I found by googling, sadly I didnt bother to bookmark it. Was pretty straightforward though and took less than an hour if I remember correctly

I think you're ready for some R'n'R I've been watching too much 24 lately...been watching Series 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 so that I am ready for series 6 in January.

Bah ! you are working for the government now , men in black, shady deals etc, use your new found position to get a squad round to his place and cave his skull in with a tyre iron. Cranial fractures and internal cerebral bleeding, thats the way to go with some people

EA...now THERE is a company I hate, infinately more than any dislike I have for microsoft

Have just tried this with Lanschool , and its not happening for Lanschool, at least if I am reading what you did correctly anyway. The teacher then broadcasting ms word, then when finished, a student logs onto the machine. Word hasnt opened, the kid has no differences than their normal login

That wasn't Microsoft but Microprose :-) Hehe..you have restored my faith in us oldschool gamers, glad you noticed my little joke

I hate them for never making another Geoff Crammonds Grand Prix game.

Nah..thats no use, thats just a status symbol for them, something to brag about....like car symbols around their necks and tracksuits in shades of blue and burberry baseball caps and tucking their trousers into their socks (never understood that one !! but every damn kid around here does it)
