    I ve been using Vista Ultimate since RC2 and god do I wish I could go back to XP, but because going back would take so long with backing up data and getting my machine back to how I like it I cba, I just put up with the stuff I hate :hmm:

    I have also noticed that people who liked 8 didn't like 7 and 9 and vice versa.

     

    My favourite so far has been 9, didn't get on with 8, loved 7 and 10, never played 10-2 and haven't got 12 yet. FF11 was total shit and a waste of the number 11 if you ask me, and I love MMO's!

     

    I used to have 7, 8 and 9 all mint not platinum but I sold my 9 whyyyyyyyyy its the best one and it was mint, I'll never replace it :shakehead

    I work with dell computers, and when you change the memory the first boot always takes ages, like 5-7 mins, then it says, amount of memory has changed, press F1 to continue.

     

    Also, the bios upgrades you can download from dell come in two flavours, the one that you run off a floppy and the easier one, which is just an .exe that you run from the desktop and it does the rest.

     

    Hope this helps.

    Let me just summarise what I have found out so far...I know that spring (April timeish) and Autumn (October timeish) are supposed to be the best times to visit as it can snow in Winter and its typhoon season in summer (Aug-Sept). So I think going in October is a good time.

     

    I have read that the Shinjuku region is a good place to be in or staying near to as this is where a lot of the entertainment etc is based, also read about the different regions to go to and to aviod in terms of costs. I cant remember the names of the ares but some areas are very over-priced, usually the areas where the business men go with their expense accounts, but then there are areas where the younger people go to and these areas are cheaper.

     

    I also read that cash is the common used payment method and that cards from outside the country are ususally only used to get cash from cash points in post offices.

     

    We want to go visit the Nintendo building, even if its just to see it from the outside, also a certain developers house ;) .

     

    Outside of Tokyo we want to visit some temples to get a feel for the landscape and culture, and we also want to see Mt Fuji, and possibly, go to Hiroshima (but thats bottom of the list as its totally the opposite direction!).

     

    I'm going to buy a phrase book and a couple of tour guides when I next get paid so hopefully that will give me some more information to go on.

    Hey guys and gals, myself and fellow forumite Lintendo and planning a holiday to Japan/Tokyo for October so I have come to ask some advice. I know some of you have been and some of you want to go, so here are some questions I would like your opinions on:

     

    If you have been, where did you stay, what parts of Japan, and where abouts in Tokyo?

     

    Where did you go when you were there, shopping, entertainment, etc, or if you havent been, where would you like to go?

     

    What was the weather like, we are planning to go in October, which according to my research is a good time to go.

     

    Anything else we should know?

     

    We are still in preliminary planning stages atm, so anything you can tell us will be great, thanks in advance!

    If he lashed out at this guy, his mates in the year above will undoubtedly seek revenge. There's no point getting involved with this guy, it will only make matters worse and trigger of other events.

     

    That is fair enough, if that is what you think, I was just giving my opinion same as everyone else, seems it isn't wanted around here then.
