Mate, I'm the magpie. I'll find anything that's about to go to the bin and make money on it. Anyone want 150 256MB PC2700 SODIMMs?

All of you will know that I will defend Vista until I'm blue in the face because on the whole I think it's a big step forwards in terms of usability and experience over Windows XP. It's had a hard birth with people nowadays thinking they're good at computers and downloading the Torrents for RCs...

As much as I want to hate that server for being a pretend server, I've just ordered 5 to play with.

We've got someone like you! :clown:

Yep, got a room of 50 Dell PowerEdge 1650s and only one has 'failed' in the last 6 years - one of the Power Supplies went which sent a nice big power surge of *lots* through the Chipset, leaving a smouldering mess of an Intel chip. However, both Processors and all the RAM, the RAID add-in card...

That can cause it, but also a lot of things that get downloaded using Limewire carry viri or active content that can instal viri.

They've been downloading p**n then - or something 'free'.

You've been downloading p**n.

Wire. Out.

Shite screen resolution on the one they're advertising - the one I've got has the upgraded 1440x900 screen as tested by our friend at TR. I've also got the docking station (just arrived today!) if you're interested in any of it. And if you really do want a new keyboard and mouse, they're...

However, as has been said if you don't mind a 1-year warranty, and plastic build quality then there are 'comparable' notebooks, however none will have the build quality and support of the Dell D-series - which it has to be said despite starting on an 'OK' footing with the D600, by the D630 they...

However I believe it's worth noting, the D630 itself doesn't bench any better than the D620 chip-for-chip - the only changes are the move to the i965 chipset and a different processor socket. IMHO the D630 shouldn't exist - from the consumer point of view it's a shafting as the two things the...

Just a shade... Lol. http://www.richersounds.com/showproduct.php?cda=showproduct&pid=LG-HT902TB Doesn't seem too bad, although only one Digital input (but has an analog input as well).

Two optical inputs would be good, as Sky+ boxes have an optical out (and should you ever go to Sky HD, they sport an optical out too).

'Loosely placed it in'... And people wonder why I'll take very small profit margins to build computers over letting them go places like that - where I know they're put together by people so how much effort really is it to plug a monitor and power in and make sure it fires?! Appalling tbh...

TBH if this thing doesn't sell this week then I'm gonna get myself a HTPC case and Mobile socket mobo, cos it's an astonishingly quick laptop.

I'd want a new system TBH, anything that's been hit hard enough to dump the memory out of it's slot has done damage to the HDD(s).

Haven't I? Maybe I ought to. You'd have figured at that spec somebody would snap my arm off!

And just to illustrate my point, here's the processor that's in it. Anybody for a free laptop?! http://www.kikatek.com/product_info.php?products_id=15337&source=froogle

Not a cat's chance in hell I'm afraid -if you can find me a 2.33Ghz Core2Duo for even close to that money then you can have it for £200. http://www.dabs.com/ProductList.aspx?&NavigationKey=11105&NavigationKey=403520000&NavigationKey=411440000&CategorySelectedId=11105&PageMode=1 Bearing in...

Leave as is - sits well and lower doesn't equal better handling. RenaultSport spent some time making your car handle well and a random company making shorter springs isn't going to make it better. Unless you're going to do it 'properly' with a good set of matched dampers/springs or Coilovers...

1 - Because I don't need it 2 - Just over a year old - purchase date 21/07/2007 3 - Warranty until that date 2010 http://www.trustedreviews.com/notebooks/review/2006/05/18/Dell-Latitude-D620/p1 Rated exceptionally well.

How about changing the dampers, like everyone said, rather than the springs?

I've got a Dell Latitude D620 up for grabs at £400: 80GB HDD DVD-RW 2.33GHz Core2Duo 2GB RAM (You can upgrade this for £70 - still less than your £500 budget) Battery life is good on it - can also provide the D-Bay battery if needs be. Sound/speakers are good for a laptop - they're not fancy...

Wave audio file - .wav - true lossless ripping is in this format, as it's the format it's stored in on CD.

You need to reinstall the sound driver after SP3 install - it's because SP3 installs UAA support, which I believe can occasionally cause a problem when it's been installed manually.

Love the new Dell laptops, our account manager is sorting us an E4200 for delivery on release date, as we've got around 100 of the D430s... Yum! Price tag at release is looking to be around the £2k mark though if you get the 64GB Flash drive etc.

Yeah, send it me I can copy and extend the partition.

There's a thread full of them here... I love it, I think it's a much-needed change to the old Windows 95 layout. And very reliable IMO.

Why not? Pentium D 945 or 950 were Dual 3.4GHz. http://www.intel.com/products/processor/pentium_d/specs.htm Given that there's no Dual 1.7GHz...
