I've been playing with Win7 64bit on a quad core/4GB ram setup with NVidia graphics since the RC came out. I've ran a few steam games, DoW2, warhammer online and not had any problems with them. The graphics card manufacturers seem to have

It's a really nice project. Overall I found it quite easy to use, but I think you could improve the distinction between creating new BookBoxs and updating BookBoxs. Perhaps only showing one of the password options based on where you came f

I also thought it was quiet interesting, considering some of the rubbish my licence fee goes on, I'm pretty sure this one is insignificant on the expenses front. It took me by surprise that there are a generation of kids out there who have

Once again, and this story is yet another example, poorly implemented DRM frustrates and alienates legitimate users, and doesn't do anything to stop a determined pirate who will almost always find a way to overcome the DRM. The best DRM I'v

It's already difficult for hardware designers to keep up with the underlying technology. It's incredibly difficult to manage the complexity of design, hence the massive growth in EDA tools over the last 10 years. The productivity gap betwe

It's nice to hear that someone is actually using both tools to their strengths and to complement one another, instead of just dismissing one as being worse than the other.

I spent nearly a day messing about with X the other week when I upgraded my Ubuntu install. I really enjoy using Linux, but things like that annoy me. When I'm at home I prefer to do work stuff on my mac, it feels nice, and it provides me

I think I was about 10 and it was an Atari STE, I really wanted a Falcon though! I used to buy ST format and mess about with the programming listings that they put in there. I even managed to hook it up to a BBS a few times when my parent

I wonder if putting another browser on a CD and putting it in with a customers purchase would make any impact on the percentage of IE6 browsers visiting that site in the future. It could be a worthwhile investment if IE6 support could be dr

If we woke up and all the technology was gone, would we want to get back to where we are now...a second time around would be a good chance to fix/improve stuff.

Unfortunately I don't think any of the customers I do sites for would want that overlayed on their shop. If google put it on their search page, we might get somewhere!

I'm not sure if it's intentional, but the data center we use in Sheffield looks like an absolute tip from the outside. Just looks like your average inner city, run down, squatter filled mess. Inside it's another story though, so I think y

I dont think its completely fair to compare the wii and the other consoles. They both have different customer bases who value different things, although there is some overlap. I've got a wii and an xbox and havnt bought a new game for my w

One way of getting stuff that I've wanted for a while is to be able to pay for a series up front + maybe a bit extra, download it as they come out, then at the end of the series get the dvd/blueray box set.

I thought it was a 4% increase on the marginal rate, which is currently 35%. I was also under the impression that the top rate only applied to salary over 349k, not 250k. So if you're on less than that there will be no change, and over th

I've done the same. I think the best group of game soundtracks I've heard are by Jon Hallur Haraldsson, for Eve online. They really help to immerse you in the game universe. I think you can listen to some of the composers stuff on last.f

Probably because he implied that using a framework means that you're lazy and dont know how to code. The main reason people use frameworks, is not because they're lazy or bad, it's because it lets them get more done, faster, and with less t
