I've got an Ixus 850 - I bought it in Hong Kong when I was on my honeymoon as my old V2 was playing up. It's a good camera and having the wide angle lens is very useful. The pictures come out pin sharp too. Well worth the money.

When we had Sky+ installed the bloke made such a mess of getting the cables from the dish to the box that when he got his drill out and said something about drilling through the wall to the phone point I said no way! Instead I told him just to leave me a long cable and I'd fix it in permanently...

I've still got an A500 and a 1200 somewhere at my folks house. However, now I've got WinUAE complete with all the Kickstart ROMs and every version of Workbench (not to mention a 7Gb RAR file full of games!) who needs to mess about with hardware? ;)

Fair enough! It's just you said you wanted someone with Citrix experience and I have a *lot* of that! :)

I sent you a PM about the last job and you never got back to me!

Share price in my company crashed from $120 to $5 during the .com meltdown in 2000. I have options - how do you think I felt!!! (saying that, it worked out well as I got new options at $5, and only had to sell a few to get my 172 for cash!) Anyway, as we've got a server willy waving contest...

My fiancée used to work at Nortel (she ran the support team for some big telecoms switches) before the crooks who ran it did one leaving the company in the lurch big time and making '000s of people redundant....

To be honest, probably not! Having said that, we have a pretty good culture in our UK offices as the 'US ways' have made it over here. There's a lot to be said for that. The beech meeting was really just a 'working lunch' in the sunshine! There are so many types of job that come under the...

We have two offices in the UK - Gerrards Cross (near Uxbridge) and Cambridge. HQ is in Florida - last time I was there I had a meeting on the beech! :)

Company I work for is always after IT/Computer Science graduates & interns - PM me if interested!

What skills/experience do you have? What areas do you want to go into? I got my current job looking at jobserve in my lunch hour!

This is the reason I use GoToMyPC - no hassle setting it up, messing about with port forwarding etc. It also supports sound and disconnected sessions and runs over port 80/443 which means I can always get to it no matter what firewall I'm behind (some places block the RDP and/or VNC ports for...

Stunning lens - glad I saved up for the f2.8 over the f4 version!
