You'll be pimping Windows 2000 Professional on unbranded laptops next! ;)

Ya.. soft reset it.. happens from time to time.

HP DL360, DL380 Dell PE1950, PE2950, PE2900 (Rack chassis) Dell R200 would even do really....? Heh. Or even a HP DL160. Depends on how redundant you want it etc too? Any is fine.. I'd be more bothered about specification than brand of server... then from there, go to your preferred...

That's not corruption - that's just different file formats.. and you can patch Office 2003 to open 2007 documents.. altho, as you said, saving as Office 97-2003 is a better bet to maintain maximum compatibility. I can't say I've heard of any file corruptions on a large scale.. sure, documents...

Office 2007 is awesome. People hated it to start with, but it makes most things so much better and easier.

You'll probably find people who are happy with their OS choice, don't actually care which is better.. I certainly don't anymore. Vista's uptake has been slow.. and I don't think most large enterprises will move it to - they may just go straight to Windows 7. Certainly the large amount of...

Home Premium and Ultimate both have Media Center.. the others don't.

iPhone is awesome.. I send full e-mails on mine. 8GB is fine.. depends if you're going to use it for media? I don't.. so 8GB is massive.. If you are going to use it for media, depends how - I rotated mine, so even my 4GB iPod was enough.. (I never listen to a full 7GB of music.. so when I...

Clever Hayley! :)

That's what I thought too! :)

Do wireless senders even exist for HD signals? I didn't think they did.. so it'll take the feed from the Scart on the SkyHD box, downscale it, and you'll see it in the other rooms.

The contracts are identical.. so it's whoever you want to deal with for billing issues etc. Infact, do the iPhone CPW contracts not go direct through O2 anyway? Anyone get their iPhone from CPW? Do you get a CPW bill every month or is it fully O2 branded?

Safari rocks. Altho, I use Firefox in Windows, and Safari in OSX. *shrug*

Indeed. Infact, it's by far my favourite app ever. It's even probably worth using OSX alone for if you do a lot of Instant Messaging. (altho I don't customise it as much as you have..) Adium just owns all.. by a long long long long long way. Thread done.

Windows Firewall AVG Done.

That's what I found too. We only sampled the normal 2.0 systems, and the higher end Bose units were very very good... in all departments...

Some people say no, some say yes. In fairness, I once listened to a load of really small computer monitor speakers, and although the Bose with £279.99 which was much more than the others, they were by FAR the best sounding small speakers we found. On the other side, Bose £80 ones weren't very...

Apart from "I'll pay the rest of my contract off early", I doubt it :p

I've got this one: http://gigaset.com/shc/0,1935,hq_en_0_148897_rArNrNrNrN,00.html (Has built in answerphone this one) Happy with it.. solid and they just work.

Ubuntu 8.04 and newer installs on my laptop (Dell D420) and EVERYTHING works. SD reader, wireless, sound, graphics, suspend, hibernate, battery/charging stuff, bluetooth - everything.. and that's without doing anything apart from installing it.

Siemans Gigaset Love mine.

Ooooh, bandwidth willy waving! *HI GUYS!!!* ;)

iPhone.

True.. but it gives a good indication and emphasises the fact that you should use UK-based servers if possible. http://www.bluesnews.com/articles/latency_vs_ping.shtml goes into some detail about "latency".

Probably not, no. For illustration, the ClioSport server is *very* well connected (right in the middle of London, Docklands). 0.9ms to ping the BBC. But, to ping google.com, it's 93ms from the ClioSport server.... I get around 25ms to the BBC from my home ADSL connection, but 117ms to...

^^ Agree. If you're playing Americans, either they're going to get lag getting to a UK server, or you're going to by using an American server.

It's all about latency. Be would be a good choice.

Nah it's quick. As quick as WiFi in some cases.. It can be really poor, but, most of the time, it's very very good.

Double check with O2, but I think it's 9 months.. then you can change.

Yea, should be OK - never seen one, though. £45/mo is 1200 mins, 500 text.
