    SCUMM Virtual Machine

    Did a quick search but couldn't find any thread on it. SCUMMVM is a front-end that allow various platforms to run some of the greatest games of the last generation. As per usual, the front-end is free to download (on whichever platform you want) but the games files aren't located here. ;)...

    iPhone notification help

    By an annoying coincidence, the O2 signal at home is just as weak as it is in the office at work. I'm well aware of this with various phones over the years, but the iPhone insists on telling that the 'Network Has Been Lost'. Yes, I know - I can see that. :( Seemingly I can only cancel the...

    [PC] Oblivion - GOTY Edition Deluxe - £6.80

    Just a heads-up for anyone interested. On Steam they currently have Oblivion Game of The Year Edition Deluxe. This includes the original game, both expansions for it, plus the six or seven additional DLC packs from Bethesda that alone cost over $15 to download from their site. Bit of a bargain...

    Black 172(?) northbound on the M6 'JOHNNY'

    ....or something very similar. Only saw it at the last moment as I was heading southbound - approximately around the Charnock Richard Services area of the M6. Looked very, very clean! D.

    Do Tesco still do those flat wiper blades?

    One of mine has split but having been into two different Tescos, I couldn't see any. Were they just a one-off for a short period of time? Cheers, D.

    Scratch fixed - black gold 182

    Just got he back this evening and I'm chuffed to bits with it. :approve: Following on from the arsehole who did the scratch in the following thread http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?t=500610 - I managed to get the car in the bodyshop today. The iPhone doesn't really do the...

    PC & Mac - Portal for free on Steam

    Further to Andy Wright's earlier post, Portal is a freebie until the 24th May for both PC and Mac... http://store.steampowered.com/freeportal/ Very clever (if slightly frustrating!) game. Definitely worth buying, but for free it's a definite steal. :approve: D.

    Iiyama customer service....

    What can I say? Over the years, I'm now onto my fourth Iiyama monitor - a 26" version running my PC at 1920x1200. I picked up this latest screen from Microdirect just before New Year but in the last few weeks, it's been behaving a little erratic. When I've powered down the PC and switched the...

    Today's Mac quote....

    Copied from a m8's email from the US, that he sent across today... I got my new macbook with 8 gig of ram with the plan to install fusion or use the dual boot feature in order to run windows for gaming and other pc applications. I was about ready to stick that disk into my new mac when I...

    Fixed IP 3G SIMs?

    Anyone use them yet? We've used the standard USB dongle broadband shizzle in the past and they seem very flakey at best. Has anyone got any experience of the fixed IP variants? I would like to know if they have been more stable that the dynamic versions. Not bothered about speed really, just...

    '91 Celica GT-Four - quick detail for today

    Well, with my car in for some 72k TLC @ Birchdown today, I went across to Martin's (k1ano on here) to help PC his '91 Celica. It had clearly built up 19 years' worth of anything and everything that the environment and the roads could throw at it. I was concerned that a single day wouldn't be...

    '04 arctic 182, parked up in Norden

    [PC & 360] - Lead & Gold

    Nabbed this off Steam yesterday and it's immediately obvious that they have used Team Fortress 2 as a 'template'. In essence, it's a multiplayer team vs team game with a Wild Western theme. I've only just touched upon it yet, so I can't really judge it. The few goes I had online, everyone just...

    Thank you tossers.....

    New reg plates

    Ok, nothing major (and certainly not unique!) - but my old plates were looking tired and in need of a revamp. First off, the dirty rear. I don't know if the plate has warped with the sun over the years, or if the dealership tried to line-up the holes within the lettering. Either way, it...

    Philips AMBX lighting system

    Has anyone tried one of these? http://www.ebuyer.com/product/160714 Seems quite cheap and it's got good reviews. Might be worth a punt? D.

    Reg-plate screw-holes on the boot?

    I'm ordering some new plates for the 182. Nothing flashy/different font or anything, but my originals are definitely looking tatty now. :) Anyway, the front bumper one I'm fine with as it's clearly screwed on through the plastic. However, what's the best solution to cap off/cover the screw...
