  1. Dunno if I can be arsed with doing very much. If I haven't already done it by then, finishing fixing your guitar most likely
  2. Having a rake through the second hand bit in One-Up is one of the things I like to do and indeed I have bought many a CD from there
  3. Maybe they're finally plumbing in the urinals and screwing the taps down? I hope it's something simple like that.
  4. I heard this rumour yesterday, sorry I can't confirm or deny. It'd be a right shame if it did go under, I really liked it. It seemed like it was starting to build up a customer base too.
  5. Is there not a shop next to the Music Hall/Box Office which might be able to help?
  6. Stay away from Celeron processors. Get as much memory as you can afford.
  7. Even the full version of Acrobat (not the reader) makes a pig's ear of this in my experience. You should consider the transition from x to pdf as a one way transaction. It's no accident that Acrobat manifests itself on your computer as a fake printer.
  8. The cheapest one to go on eBay recently was 780 if that's any help.
  9. Failing that, Maplin do general purpose laptop power supplies - switchable voltage and different plugs for a variety of laptops. Just make sure you get one with sufficient wattage.
  10. Loudness war - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  11. Thank you for affording me that courtesy, even if it was virtual.
  12. Why don't you respond with an apology, seeing as you were way, way out of line? Then you might reclaim some of the ground you lost on the road to being a decent human being. You broke the rule: don't be a dick.
  13. The similarly recently announced PowerShot SX1 IS interests me.
  14. Not at all, I was merely talking from my own point of view. I am fortunate indeed that I am in a position to vote with my feet, literally. Of course, anyone - male or female ought to be able to walk wherever they like, as far as they like without hindrance or fear, but that's another story altogether.
  15. I can walk most of the way home in the time it takes to get a taxi from the queue. There's more chance of me getting aggro in a taxi queue than walking home. Walking is free. You get wet whether you're walking home or standing in a taxi queue. Walking is exercise. So I walk. Taxi fares as a joke stopped being funny some time ago.
  16. Also take lots of carrier bags - I've seen it be a deal breaker because "ye dinna hae a bag?" and away they went!
  17. This place is one of the worst I've seen for thread resurrection.
  18. That's not what I asked. Most laptops come with a recovery or reinstall CD which when applied restores the laptop to factory state in the software sense. Do you still have it? What kind of laptop is it?
  19. Do you have the reinstall CD which came with the laptop? That should return you to factory setup. Failing that, you're talking about reinstalling Windows, finding drivers for all the various components, which depending on your laptop may be easy or difficult if the manufacturer chooses to make it so.
  20. I zoned out just after question 9 when 10 showed itself to be one I'd actually have to think about. I'm not quite with it this morning.
  21. Yes, it's getting far too expensive to have beer/water/whatever splashed over you from a great height by a minority of bams.
  22. More people need to go here - popped in last night from about 7.30-9pm and there were only 4 people there total that whole time - disappointing. At a loose end one evening? Need a chilled out place to meet people? Go and give it a try - good (reasonably priced) coffee, beers, cider, soft drinks, munchies. New places like this need our support.
  23. Try the stuff suggested here: How to convert a PDF file to Word, Excel or JPG format
  24. Flashblock. I hate Flash when it's shoved in your face. Flashblock lets you selectively enable Flash elements or you can whitelist a site if you're happy that you want Flash all the time from there.
  25. Please don't use that code, it's very rude and modifies (if allowed) the status bar to show the time left to refresh. Some people (me included) don't like websites which do that. If you want a whole web page to refresh, you could use this: Meta refresh - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia If you want a particular element on a web page to refresh, there is code out there (like refreshing a webcam image for instance)
