The internet connection in my house share is now very poor. It's a free connection, we don't receive any bills for it. Someone who has moved out got the internet connectio installed. She is very organised so if she was being charged extra we'd soon...
MuchachosThe Lacey family computer is running very slow, and on looking to see what programmes I can remove I note that MS Office Pro 2003 has been installed, but not used since 2005. I suspect this is a hookey copy loaded on by one of my children. PC...
Anyone else find that they are unable to watch a women's match with the sound on? The shrieks moans and grunts drive me crazy. They should be fined on an escalating scale for every such utterance. Never mind that it is "gamesmanship" at best and...
Chaps I notice there is a bit of tension and some undercurrents going on here at the moment so I ask for some clemency.How about before we post we all consider the following;1] Don’t thread crap.2] If you want to contribute, make it constructive...

But why we have to "respect"...
I have written a sweet little programme/utility/tool to automate the indexing of a book (a hugely labourious job usually). There are software packages out there already but I think I may have something commerically viable but how do I protect it? Does...
I'm talking about the thing (possibly the most talked-about and breathlessly hyped piece of yet-to-be-announced consumer electronics ever) that uncle Steve will be unveiling in San Francisco later today. A game-changing/revolutionary tablet...
