I hate sharing printers out. No matter how many times you tell them that you can't print to Betty's printer without her PC being switched on - they still don't get it. "But she doesn't start until 11.30. What are we supposed to do?" ARGH!!! ;) D.

Honestly? Come on Apple - that is just f**king disgusting. There's trying to grab more money at the initial purchase point - and then there's just taking the piss. The MBP my girlfriend recently purchased is the 8GB. But I always thought about upgrading it to 16GB should she need it in the...

Not sure what you're trying to do there? Are the printers meant to be on the network, but they only come with USB ports? You can get print servers to connect to the printer and network them that way. They used to be horrendously expensive - the HP JetDirect 500x springs to mind where it was...

It's well worth it Andy - if you notice the wizard dude that I have in the lower left corner has the spell runes open. You can click on them to make different combinations of spells (like in Dungeon Master) and similarly, you can mix ingredients to make potions. The only think that's slightly...

I've put over a dozen hours into this old-skool dungeon-crawler already - and it's much, much better than its predecessor. The first game, imo - was too difficult for the sake of it. Some of the puzzles were so difficult as to be totally abstract and bizarre - that it made progress tiresome and...

Not sure if it's across all platforms, but EA is having a sale including the BF4 franchise where the game and DLCs are a few quid cheaper at the minute. D.

This video has to win an award or two! And if that's anything like the noise of the production car - I NEED IT! :) D.

Get Gally's input on this - see what he thinks in terms of how far you should go with it. D.

I don't mind the leather too much - a little 'old manish' I suppose - but certainly no deal breaker. If you were closer, I'd volunteer to clean the interior with some Meg's Gold Class Leather Cleaner. I've got a slightly unhinged addiction to the smell of that stuff. I think 30% of the weight of...

Yeah - I think I'll get used to it eventually - but it's not the best interface. I much preferred the old one - I really don't like the 'recommendations' aspect... D.

The same class I started with. Just a shame that the core mechanics of the game make you a jack-of-all-trades as you progress through it. You fully intend to start off as an elf who specialises in archery and magic. But I can guarantee that if you complete with game that character - you will be...

Looks pretty good actually! D.

Cheers Tom/Carl, Downloaded Yosemite onto the Macbook yesterday and Airdrop now works fine between the two devices. :) D.

If it worked - you'd probably be the 2nd person in the country to use this software.... :wink: D.

Banked that one for future use! :) D.

Its some PLC logic program software (or something) for our manufacturing plant. Massively boring, but massively important. At the same time, we bought some Siemens software, another lot from Mitsubishi Electric and also AutoCAD LT 2015. All looked presentable and with a quality finish. I don't...

No physical media A mere slip of paper with a license key on it Outer wrapping of a butty bag Oh, and a HUGE 73MB download for the actual program itself once you unwrap the license key itself. Somebody, somewhere is A) having a right laugh. And B) - making shedloads of money while doing it! D.

Utter weapon. D.

Realistically John, I'd target your graphics setup for an immediate quick-fix. The excellent nVidia GTX970's are out now and offer plenty of bang for your buck. You could purchase a new mobo, CPU and memory - but for your Assetto addiction, I would simply revamp your gfx. D.

That's good to hear! Is the upgrade to Yosemite out for download already then? Cheers, D.

Thanks sn00p. In age, it falls into that time period - it might be a little older though. I'll stick to getting it downloaded in the Mac Store on another Mac and burning it to DVD that way. But I will check to see if it has this feature first - sounds like a very (very) good idea imo. D.

That just sounds wrong. Would a Google search take me to a German sounding website with a penchant for pain? ;) D.

Cheers Jay. Do you know if this feature applies to iMac's as well? Thanks, D.

Looks like you can't :( My iPhone 5 is on iOS8 and the MacBook Pro on Mavericks. Clearly there are significant technical reasons for this - but I just thought it would work due to the cross platform nature of all Apple devices. Worse, is the fact that they connect (or appear to connect) for a...

So my girlfriend picked up her new MacBook Pro on Friday afternoon and I tried to Airdrop a couple of photos to her. During the failed connects & reconnects, I noticed that this was a widespread (and well known) issue within the Apple community. Is it really an issue, or is there a workaround...

Hi Jay, Not as yet - I'll have to download it beforehand on that Mac first then? Just thought I could get some time saved by having the DVD media ready to go. Cheers, D.

Do you have a 1*2? The holes that the spark-plugs go down are perfect catchment traps for water. Even the heat from the engine doesn't evaporate all of the water - leaving the thread on the plugs themselves to occasionally corrode quite badly. One area I'd definitely cover - also, unbolt your...

Chaps, I must be missing something obvious, but I appear to be in a chicken and the egg situation? I have a sales order here with a redemption code for Mountain Lion Single Unit in order to do a clean iMac install with fresh hardware. I thought that I'd be able to log into the store, download...

I bloody hope not! :) D.

Probably won't be getting this. I detest games that overly-darken everything. Stumbling about in the darkness isn't scary. It's just boring and tedious. D.
