You're probably a flash b*****d and wearing "eau de steve" too.

You got your black mock turtleneck sweater on too sneekster?

They're normally spot on. :( Will hit hard. Ironically I know somebody in the ipod special applications group, but you'd have more luck getting blood from a stone than information from them!

I shall go slap said source. Usually pretty reliable regarding apple announcements.

On the edge of your seat sneeks?! ;)

I've been told that there will be no 3G iPhone this year...we will see.

Anybody want to take bets that there won't a new 3G iphone today?

huh. spooky. I did exactly the same thing yesterday on the mail server VM! Except that is Linux host/Linux Guest.

Huh. I reckon you should get a t-shirt made up. "My other server's a HP". You know, like "My other car is a ferrari". Sad thing is, you could probably sell them to hp geeks. ;)

ext3?? pah, you need ReiserFS - now with added homicide.

Daz just sits in front of his servers all day wearing his tommy hilfiger summer jacket and letting the ladies admire him from a distance....ladies love the server.

To be safe (and to make sure you don't delete select the wrong partition), I'd erase the D: partitition in Windows so that it's unallocated. That way you'll be absolutely sure that you are installing it to the write place. As the link from griff above, ubuntu knows about the windows loader...

Daz, Boosh and Mike speak sense. I'd say it's the other day around, unless you have a specific reason for going for a desktop then I'd always buy a laptop. So many more advantages.

pmsl. You should have seen the smoke and the top fly off a chip the other week when my boss accidentally connected a high current 12V supply to a 5V rail...... nothing..nothing...bang...tio of chipi flying across the room...smoke..smell...whoops. Theres a lot to be said to plugging...

Oh yes.... :D But just keep in mind that email is stored server side. You can cache it locally so the "last view" of you email account is stored on that "device" when you are offline, when you go back online your client will re-sync itself..so you can make it behave "like" pop3 but still get...

Yah. It's nice! Imp/Horde is just horrible! Roundcube is easily as nice aesthetically as @mail with the bonus that it's free! You don't need much to host it, PHP & mysql + some configuration job done. (more complex if you need TLS because you need certificates and a unique IP)

Check if the host has a webmail server..... If not and you've got the ability to host a PHP site, then you could put up your own webmail using roundcube, which is one of the nicer webmail clients. This is where using IMAP really comes into it's own, because it's server side (barring what I...

You need to configure SMTP to send mail.

IMAP is incoming. With IMAP the mail is stored on the server. The big advantage here is that IMAP supports folders, so the server stores Inbox & Sent mail (plus whatever heirachy you may want). As long as you have the login, you have access to all your email. If you're out of the office...

yes, pop3 downloads email. You will have to configure in outlook when and how often you want it to remove them from the server. Personally I'd go for IMAP as it has far more benefits.

Backup? Tell me more of this strange thing you call "Backup". ;)

Copper oxidizes quicker than gold though, which is why gold has traditionally been used on pcb interconnects. That said, we had a batch of PCB prototypes that we didn't build for about 4 months, we didn't realise that they'd been "silver" finished. By the time we came to use them they were...

Indeed. Capacitance is the real killer with high speed signals though.... Anybody who believes that spending more than 10 quid on a cable seriously deserves to have the money liberated from their wallet just for being a dumb ass.

Wonder if they'll ever make "now and next work correctly". That's my biggest gripe! Foxtel (Newscorps australian pay tv server) works correctly, you highlight a program in "now and next" and it gives you the information about the highlighted programme. On sky pressing information gives you...

eh? There's always been one! Apple+3

One of them the receiver has TMC so gets traffic updates over classic FM. The other doesn't. TMC is a paid service in the UK, so the extra cost covers the license tomtom have to pay.

I know somebody whos gas and electricity keeps getting "hijacked". They've built a load of flats next to his house (his house is 61), and they're numbered 61a, 61b, 61c...etc. People keep ordering gas or electricity and everytime somebody does it, they end up changing his too! First time it...

I wasn't referring to mac vs windows threads. I was specifically talking about "PC only" threads or "mac only" threads. I think you'll find that most mac threads will have been hijacked by a windows user spouting things such as "Fashion Accesory" or "Overpriced" or other such crap! You're...

You can get office 2008 for mac. Includes microsoft entourage which is the mac equivalent of outlook. Or use vmware fusion or parallels for running windows while in OS X.

My experience is somewhat different. Most mac owners couldn't give a flying f**k about windows - yet pc owners seem to get a bee in their bonnet about macs! Mac owners seem to have to defend themselves because windows owners can't stop trolling! If you go through the "PC" threads on here...
