  1. Love how the Americans are moaning when there are so many 16/17-25 year olds running around in 40's-70's Chevy's and the like. Huge V8 cars, huge amounts of power and no real safety features apart from being automatic which I assume free's a hand to control the car more.
  2. Heaven forbid any of the students performed their daily activities, like getting undressed, changed, having friends over, that makes the whole thing alot worse. The article portrays them being protected against Pedo's forgetting that in turn they were the predatory ones, there could be and more than likely would have been inappropriate viewing of underage children. Very shocking indeed.
  3. Insurance on same engine sizes is very different, a Honda Civic for example produces perhaps more BHP than a Nissan Almera, part availability within the UK is another factor, how easy and common are parts to get, and than they compare how many accidents claimed in each car and adjust that way Some 2.0L cars are group 20 where others are Group 11,14 etc etc Very weird system.

    I want a PS3!

    Got a PS3 slim before Christmas from Sainsburys for £199, what an absolute bargain, added they were sold out in a massive three minutes, the queue was a nightmare to get them Had to travel to another store to find some! I love it, BD playback is superb, online gaming is superb, just think the PSN store needs alot of work.
  5. I guess compared to the Veyron I don't see it as an everyday car, more either a track day or weekend car. You're right on the spool, but the size of the Turbos simply limit this, if you were driving this how it was meant to be driven I can't see how you'd drop below spool range It's also about controlling and harnessing the power, I guess you could drive the car at its limits and never really worry about internals, oil issues, temps and the likes as its been produced in such a way. So yes, a one trick pony, but a very nice pony
  6. Yes, and only an idiot would assume that; a hot hatch is quite capable of hitting a 4 second 0-60, and the gearing ratio is rather irrelevant, IIRC spool on the 9ff is around 3650rpm, the power band on 1100+ HP would wreck havoc on any "long" gear, added state of the art traction control, lsd and the likes and I can't really see the porsche doing more than 4 seconds to 60mph
  7. Nope, The 9ff Porsche has yet to make an appearance on top gear. I want a Dubai Bugatti/9ff race off!
  8. Yes and chav's routinely drive around in M3's.
  9. I did claim fastest, which literally means top end. I may get trumped at 0-60 by an M3, but after that its all game over, still the worlds fastest car. And the price tag is circa £1.5m
  10. And Humpty Dumpty has been known to fall off the wall. For the hassle its worth, running a single server for an entire setup is ill-advised, however the choice is yours. Just be prepared to be in school from 8pm till the early morning getting everything backup should anything fail

    Vague error

    Theres a comma in there somewhere, had this once or twice before. Just a manual error, and when sending to a mass audience if ones wrong they all fail. She/he could trouble shoot it, send the email to; say three contacts at a time in blocks and find the block that doesn't work
  12. Thats lovely, I love the old "box" shape BMW's. Here's something else, earmarked as the worlds faster car, (Yes, faster than a Veyron) 9ff | EN | Products | Details What a lovely looking speed machine.
  13. How very kind of you!
  14. I'm blind... ok
  15. Aren't we supposed to state price of the item in question in the thread EduTech?
  16. The full solution would imply 2 x Server for Solaris for SRSS 4.1+ and the Sun Rays/SGD, 2 x Server for VMWare ESX/ESXi and hosting all the machines. Providing fault tolerance The simple solution (Or Poor Mans VDI) is one server, a decent raid situation and running the SRSS server as a virtual machine on the ESX server, including the backup methods to provide the fault tolerance. Everything can be accomplished on a single server with some tolerance. You could do it many ways including Solaris Server + VDI Broker + Windows Terminal Server. Suppose the end result would be the ESX Setup, Solaris Setup, SRSS Setup and SGD Setup.
  17. Ironically I do, its really engrossing, and I've never really been a fan of football, cricket and rugby are the sports I enjoy most, however I've been engrossed in watching football lately and watching every highlight show on TV, perhaps I am being amalgamated into British society. I popped into Gamestation down here in the South the other day and that had a Used copy for £14, have you got any near you?
  18. Wouldn't mind showcasing the SUN Ray VDI Environment and the Poor Mans VDI solution as well, for thin client computing.
  19. I'd look at 2/3 DC's to be honest, a few points you should learn as they are MCSE topics are: (As I assume this would be the end goal, its a very invaluable certification to have and defiantly opens up possibilities in the future) Tree's, forests, and trusts between these. I setup 6 2003 Enterprise DC's 3 for onedomain.local and 3 for seconddomain.local I messed around with DFS linking and replicating between the trusts, setting up site links and quotas, setting up the forest between both domains, checking credentials and replication between, Global catalog replication between the domains and the likes. Knowing how to setup a GPO is a good start as well, you don't need to know everything bar the basic, logging, usernames and passwords (minimums/maximums) You can set everything up via GUI's and the likes but your going need need to learn the following commands as well; DSADD, DSMOD, DSQUERY, DSMOVE, DSRM. Would also be a good point learning about groups, types and inheritance. Shares and permissions are another good point to focus on. But to start you're defiantly on the right lines.
  20. Minehead is so far from here, almost a county away. But yes Snowing in South Somerset, Bruton/Evercreech/Shepton Mallet area.
  21. BitNami :: BitNami Stacks Has downloadable "Stacks"; This means Apache, PHP, Mysql + Package are downloaded and ready for configuration, you just type whatever information is asked and at the end of deployment, you have a working enviroment, no need to fuss around getting everything to work. I use Bitnami Tracks stack to keep a grasp on the numerous projects that I undertake, makes everything easier rather than worrying about configuring everything. DokuWiki and MediaWiki are there as well for download.
  22. Snowing here in Somerset at the moment, quite big flakes, not coming down to hard at the moment through
  23. Missed me in December as well. Happy Birthday btw
  24. If your policies are enabled you can track "Audit: Logon Success" through Event Viewer and see everywhere Administrator has successfully logged in.

    Star Trek Online

    There probably won't be, just how the game is designed, or there will be, but due to mechanics will be so limited it won't be worth it. POTBS are having a free one-month trial for their second birthday, head over and play the game for a bit and you'll see the similarities between the two. I anticipated and really hoped STO would be new, new mechanics and massive end game potential, but its completely failed.
