Hellfire, what are your favourite anime series that have finished?

There are pc's that come with games, my friend got 4 of them with his. Some PC's come with Nero, etc.

All 360's are remarkably loud, all PS3's are remarkably quiet. I don't really notice it tho because A) My projector is even louder and b)I have 5.1 Surround.

Yeah, I just ordered 4 for my sister, I'll order the rest if I get money in time.

Yeah I worked it out first go, it's a simple pipe game really. Every tile on the board has a pipe piece under it, the objective is to create a drain from the start to the finish (duh) which were marked by light blue arrow things. When you find a tile you want you press A to swap it with the current one you're "holding" and then A again when you find the tile you want to place it. What I wasn't sure on was how to hack. The first time I electro shocked it down and then it gave me the option to hack but afterwards I couldn't hack any more, am I only allowed one robot friend? If its where I think it is, then we had the same problem, it was right at the end with one of those "Regenerator" things that you spawn in and a couple of entrances, and they stream in about 2-3 or a time for a while. I died a couple of times there before they stopped coming. Or are you talking about the room with fire and a red tinge with the robots and the people that kept on coming?

Dude, it's only 10 days now.

And quite frankly sir, you're tiring me because I'm near enough certain you know I have valid arguments that you can't disregard. Meanwhile, you have called me stubborn because I made one reply against your choice argument. What about linux? Why are you ignoring the value and price of linux and just whining about windows in a mac vs. PC thread is what I wanted to imply.

You're going off track, this is about the price comparisons between PC's and Mac's, not windows and OSX. Nope, Digg. Do you like VLC?

I think I answered all the questions I raised, apart from the ones that were meant to be rhetorical. I did use too many I would say. This is up to the user. Watch what I can do to my documents folder. I don't know how much better OSX is for file exploring, I rarely use it but I hear an increasing number of people complaining about Finder. All my spam gets spammed automatically and if one gets through gmail would catch it or not let me download it. Then you complain about UAC which you can turn off in less than a minute, like I did. What are the circumstances? OSX will be more secure for the foreseeable future but these "hacking into windows" in a minute is with exploits that are usually patched by tuesday. I've never seen an article about how easy windows is to hack with a fully up to date system. My point was every user puts a different price on ever feature, I have no idea that's how off course on the topic of "PC vs Mac Price Comparisons" Dated presumption, windows will automatically detect and support 99% of cameras out there Usually just nero does it? Yes, Choice sounds like a terrible thing. I think you're taking offence from stuff that isn't offensive and my arguments are valid.

Wrong Wrong Wrong wrong. Media Player Classic is the best video player on windows. It really is. VLC would be a decent contender but it can't do subtitles at all, it completely ignores formatting and doesn't knock out the notes subbers insert using {} tags. Otherwise they're pretty much the same. "It isn't usable" This is a very vague statement but if you're talking about GUI's, well let's take a look. Windows media player 6.4 Media Player Classic IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME. It couldn't possibly be any simpler. If you're your average joe you won't even need to look any deeper into the settings, as MPC will get right to the job at hand. As far as I remember, The old windows media player was useless and I would curse every time it opened itself because the streaming never worked and at that period videos on the web were a total mess. "Maximing the window screws up the video," No it doesn't, and if it did then you just need to familiarise yourself with the Right Click > Video Frame menu Which actually gives you a wide range of aspect ratio's to choose from. At least I assume that's your problem with it, and I can't think of any others you might have. "and its far too bloated." What? Seriously I'm doubting you've even used Media Player Classic here. You realise it's a 4MB standalone exe, right? By comparison VLC's files are 8MB. I don't understand how it could be any trimmer without sacrificing valuable options. I'm looking through all the options right now and I don't see anything that says to me "This doesn't belong in a media player" Can you put this into context for me please? I'm not sure what you're saying exactly. If you're talking about all the different versions of windows then I should point out that they vary in the number of features they offer (because microsoft are greedy bastards) rather than the specs that are meant to run them. Again I don't entirely understand what you mean by "OSX is more functional". In what sense? In usability? In features? In any case it's very much dependent on the user and generally impossible to generalise what OS is better to a user than others. I don't know about the whole Vista delay thing. Fact: Vista was released late and had over promised features. The question is, do I care? Why am I judging the OS by what it could have been, rather than what is being presented to me? At no point during my XP lifetime I was thinking "damn I'm not satisfied with this" and when I looked at OSX and I saw some of the features it had none of them appeared that useful to me, or the didn't seem to merit the time and frustration of learning the inner workings of a new OS, let alone the the 800+ pounds I would need to spend just to use these. Yes you can, It's up to the user to put a price on these features. Would I really use iLife? Do I care how heavy my laptop is really? "It's just a magnet after all" Yes, vista will play the file live in the taskbar thumbnails. As a Windows power user, the virus and firewall arguments mean very little to me because I don't lose my intelligence when I sit down to the computer. I don't get viruses. I haven't had a virus since Windows 98 (at which point I was 9 or 10) because I understand how my computer works and I know instinctively when something is likely to infect me. Of course, to the normal user this doesn't really apply. So is a virus checker really that much hassle? Many computers come with the pre installed. Firewalls aren't really needed further than the default windows one thanks to the hardware firewall that come standard in routers these days. There are plenty of good free anti virus programs and indeed, many of them are better than ones you have to pay for. Once you have an anti virus installed, where's the hassle?

I sold my iPod so I had enough to buy the new one when it came out. Did you just delete all the music I left on it or did you give some of it a listen? There's some good stuff on there I'm telling you.

Dude, I played the demo, this game is amazing, definitely gonna order soon.

If you're talking about Media Player Classic then you're sorely mistaken because it's the best media player for Windows.

It's a stable OS with some features sorely lacking in XP.

Erm, iMac comes with 2GB standard, the same as most vista computers and definitely more than enough for vista. Besides, one of vista's features is that it's very scalable towards RAM and will automatically adjust settings for the best efficiency. More like 6 months.

I think the new Toshiba Portege R500 might do 8 hours but toshiba are very vague about what the battery life is exactly. Actually, just checked again and Toshiba quote 8 hours on it, if only it had a decent graphics card, I imagine that's a big part of the power savings. EDIT: Fuck the graphics card, im going to get this laptop, it's fucking hot. http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/jsp/seriesHomepage.do?service=UK&SERIES_ID=129898 Woah, the ebuyer page quotes 12 hours. http://www.ebuyer.com/customer/products/index.html?action=c2hvd19wcm9kdWN0X292ZXJ2aWV3&product_uid=131357&_LOC=UK

Well, I just firmly accepted a place at Robert Gordon's in aberdeen with an insurance of Stirling. I'm doing Computing science.

I have a friend who's happily owned an Acer for a few years, but the brand definitely has a nasty stigma around it.

DUDE. SPOILER.

I was wondering if anyone else had watched blood+. I'd been following Bakakozou's subs because shinsen subs are fucking shitty but since baka have liquidated I guess I'm gonna have to bite the bullet to get some closure on this show. The last episode I watched was 32.(out of 50) It's a fairly decent show and I think they've managed to keep it interesting throughout but sometimes I felt some sections were a little uninspired. I guess I should finish it before really dismissing it. Blood+ also has really cool OP's and ED's actually.

Holy shit 24 parody in episode 17 of lucky star. Is 24 "big in japan"? Hey they're playing a wii. Todays lucky channel is good, I love this guy. wow, no kidding about the awesome ED

These games are stupid. :-/

(Next time buy nVidia)
