I have upgraded work machine (alienware area-51 m15x laptop) and gaming machine (quad core blah...) to Weven RC1. I have been a vista user for a while, so I just did an upgrade. After using Weven for a few weeks, I had to do some work on a staff members XP machine, my goodness did XP suck! It felt really clunky and I couldn't find anything. :laugh: Give Weven a few weeks and let us know....

Taxis: SA StyleNice!! What's even worse is when they drive 2 side-by-side and pass kids through the window. (I've seen it a few times :laugh: .)

This awful business of giving ITV a share of the Licence FeeA mate of mine works in the XXXXXXXX (kept out for mate's job safety) department of the BBC. The entire division he works in is going to me outsourced to a foreign country, losing 100's of British jobs. I don't really want to HAVE to pay a license fee that won't even go to British workers. ITV or the foreign workers don't warrant any part of my fee, screw 'em.

You know you need a break when...I have a very large email backup! And yes, I NEED A BREAK! :laugh: :laugh:

You know you need a break when...1. You accidentally enter your pin on the microwave. 2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years. 3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3. 4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you. 5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses... 6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries. 7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen. 8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it. 10... You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee. 11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : ) 12 You're reading this and nodding and laughing. 13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message. 14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list. 15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list. AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.

Is RAID 5 worth it?I second that NVIDIA Mobo's and RAID do not go together. I had a system with 4 raided raptors which should have been lightning fast. It was only marginally faster than a single drive bu8t Vista (Grrrrr) would fail completly every 3 months or so. The Mobo was a rather expensive one as well. The system runs perfectly now with Win7 and a single 500GB drive. Raptors went on fleabay. :laugh:

Recommendations for gaming laptop?We travel a lot for work, but our whole company plays 3d games in our off time. We have just bought an HP 3500eu laptop.(probably HP3500US for the states). It has a built in GeForce 9300 512MB dedicated graphics card. The system runs left 4 dead at full screen resolution at 30 frames per second with vsync turned on! NICE!!!! COD4 and COD5 Also run very well. The system also has a built in fingerprint reader to help with security. The system was £500.00, to that should be less than $1000 in the US.
