AL itre averages 2 units, so that would give us a 70 unit week, not sure the doctor would like that.

Actually a litre is around 4 units (as a pint of beer is two, and there are just under two pints to the litre. So that's around 140 units a week and as the recommended limit for a human, adult male is around 21 units per week (I believe) the doctor's REALLY not going to like that. So, off to the pub then :laugh: -- modified at 7:49 Thursday 17th August, 2006

I've got a system with 2 20GB Maxtor HDDs (really old) and they've both been going for at least 5 years. Never had a single day's problem with them. (although, when I get home tonight now, I'll have found that they've both moved to the big tower in the sky! :doh: Sod's Law!)

I have just finished a barcode related software development for the company I work for. While we don't utilise PDF's (and I do understand it's the conversion into PDF that is the issue) I found that simply using a barcode font provided the consistency I needed rather than trying to generate images all over the place. The font I have used is Abri Barcode39[[^](http://Abri Barcode39)] but I can't see why your PDF converter wouldn't convert this as accurately as Verdana or Arial... :~

Think you'll find that's software bots, not robots like in the video ;o) The link you posted was about Chat-Bots for Windows Live Messenger... :)

blurrgh - who spiked the water-cooler?
