  1. Thats why I said they would be *my* choices
  2. Fibre or External cat5 would be my choices
  3. Yeah, ours are relatively new buildings, definately no asbestos. We used to have prometheans but moved to smartboards as the staff seemed to prefer the software Out of curiousity, how much of the 1995 was installation?
  4. Smartboard...we only have smartboards
  5. £1450 , and 30-40 for the cables ..give or take. My time..slightly harder to put a price on I guess. Depends how much there is to be done, generally a white board would be put up during a term break, or an inset day. The whiteboard goes up with 4 large screws drilled..so thats about 5 mins. The cabling + trunking takes about 10 mins to put up, projector usually takes the longest to drill into the ceiling..worst case scenario about 40 mins (often takes less to drill it than that though). So maybe..max for the lot is about an hour. Dont get me wrong..I am not knocking anybody for using a third party to install, I was just curious how much their installation is, because generally the people we've looked at in the past want another 500-750 to install it, ..wish I was paid 500-750 per hour, but sadly I am not quite yet , from what I have seen so far it just works out cheaper *for us* for me to install it
  6. What would be even better, would be if the adults who are supposed to be educating the future business employees of our country , would have enough intelligence to not leave their laptops/PCs open. Course , sadly this often proves a much too difficult task. Its a wonder at times they know how to close a door
  7. How much do they charge for an installation? We just put them up ourselves, saves a bit of time and usually a bit of money too.
  8. Yeah I thought F18 was the beatles for a long time...eventually I realised it was the "other" beatles Upto 79 now...gah, getting tough. What makes it worse is that you have to get the spelling EXACTLY right... There is one that I was positive was Alannis Morrisette, but there are about 15 ways of spelling that. Then you have ones which dont have "the" at the front, and ones which do.
  9. Gah !! Stuck on 75 out of 95 !!
  10. Didnt I read something on BBC website the other day that the LGFL was being scrapped due to essentially being crap?? EDTI :: Oh wait..no..that was the NGfL
  11. oooh...hahaha, how very pretty
  12. Oooh..I havent seen it yet, got a screenie?
  13. Electricity !? Oh...how we would have loved to have to discover electricity. Back in our day, we had to pay them to let us discover fire, then we would work on other research for 25 hours a day, for tuppence a year, come home where our fathers would beat us to death with a chainsaw and dance merry hell on our graves
  14. Most of our testees attained the predicted grade, though our head of ICT predicted everyone for a 4, so not overly difficult I guess
  15. yeah..think our two are underpowered, one is 3kw, the other is 3.5kw
  16. We have 2 ultra powerful Airforce air con units in here, but even with both of them blaring out at full power , its still 34 and rising
  17. Goddamn it is so insanely hot down here
  18. Impressive...straight through our ISA and LEA too. Wonder if it registers at the LEA as being http://sneak.in Would use it to get to LEA blocked stuff like a few games news sites (gamespot.com etc), during breaks, but I fear the LEA would track its use and come down on us
  19. That could be bad news. During the last SIMS update patch we did, there was some problem and a restore from the backup was required. When we did this , we lost every single custom report we had. We had the same problem as you, the files were listed but "could not be found on document server" whenever you tried to access them. Turns out that the custom reports get embedded into some SIMS and SQL files instead of being kept as seperate files. We contacted our SIMS support folks, and plowed through the capitaes support.net ...all to no avail. The end result after many weeks was that every custom report had to be rewritten as there was no way to get them back.
  20. Got the news today...Ofsted coming next wednesday/thursday. I mean really...fancy coming when the world cup is on ! Is nothing sacred anymore !! Jake Proud member of the NHDWC Society (National Holidays During the World Cup)
  21. Question is...should we be concerned !?. With 5 goals in his last 3 games, Crouch is our in form striker. Time for concern??
  22. Cant say that we have noticed any delays with any aspects of PMP. User list, printer lists, and group all load and refresh swiftly, even reports are generated speedily We have it running on a P4 2.8, 2gig ram , windows server 2003, which is running as a dedicated print server
  23. I dont like Nirvana or Dr Who (never been the same since tom baker left)
  24. I agree with this, as the saying goes .... What people can do is often more important than what they know, for knowledge is only useful if it is applied
  25. I guess so, but I am lazy and prefer to just spend 30 secs downloading a prebuilt utility
