    Post YOUR PC specs

    You've got a damn fast computer there, compared to mine... CPU: 7mhz Motorola 68000 RAM: 512kb OS: Amiga OS 1.3 case: beige thing with keyboard built in PSU: block on a cord monitor: whatever TV I plug it into Disk drive: Double Density (wow!) floppy Cooling: Might have a CPU fan...

    Why I hate Nokia now...

    I'm inclined to agree with you on this, Nokia's been annoying me lately. For starters, the whole free navigation in ovi maps was made such a big deal of, but they conveniently forget to mention that they blocked many devices from updating to it, such as the n95. Now you might think that that's...

    build your own pc

    I think it's more that they haven't ever heard of a thing called a budget :P Well, you have to consider that software develops quickly, along with the resources needed to run it. Spending some money adding things that might not be necessary now could save having to upgrade to a newer machine...

    general UNSW chit-chat

    meh, I slept in a little this morning, didn't end up going to my 9 o'clock lecture because I just couldn't be bothered. Ended up going at 10 though, but that was mainly because it meant I could get a lift up to the uni in a nice dry car instead of walking, which I would have had to do otherwise...

    'Ninjas' chase off some thieves

    http://www.smh.com.au/nsw/men-in-black-are-the-white-knights-of-the-night-20100519-vfc5.html I wish I had a video of that. Edit: Fixed link (hopefully)

    Dear lefties, Rudd is a CRIMINAL who has BETRAYED you

    I only clicked on this because I read the title as referring to left handed people. Now that would have been a more interesting thread...

    Uninstalling (pc) games downloaded via torrents

    Maybe he's asking how to uninstall the virus he got along with the game :p

    iPad

    I wouldn't turn down an ipad if someone was going to buy it for me, but if I was after a mac tablet I would probably buy something like a modbook. I prefer a device with a standard base system which can run a proper OS, more variety of stuff to put on it, more likely to have people still...

    Uninstalling (pc) games downloaded via torrents

    Well, you could just delete them ;). Or if you got an installer file, run it and see if there's an uninstall option (or use the add/remove programs control panel). There might even be an uninstaller in the program folder. Really, it's the same as you would usually do to uninstall a game you got...

    Mobile Phone Plan For Student

    the dream car thread

    Meh, I'm going to be different and say that if I were after a single car, I would choose a Range Rover Sport (with the supercharged v8, of course). Though if several cars would be an option I would agree with some of the others here and be including a E type Jag and a older 911 in my...

    What mouse do you use on your iMac/Macbook?

    I just use a relatively cheap ($30 from big w :p) logitech wireless mouse. Works fine for me. By the way, your mum's current mouse will most likely work again if you take the whole thing apart and clean underneath and around the scroll ball. Be warned though, they don't go back together...

    What is it with maple TA acting up all the time? Is this something that always happens?

    Failed computer modification :(

    Umm, not sure about the theoretical capabilities of PCIe, but the practical side of me is saying "Why the hell did you think all those contacts were connected to the circuit board if they weren't needed for anything?":eek:

    What Cars does everyone drive??

    Well, if I'm driving on public roads I either take Dad's Toyota troopcarrier or Mum's Toyota hiace (which is incredibly slow). Around the block though I either take this: Or this This one is fun when it goes, has an old valiant slant 6 in it. Only problem is that it breaks down...

    conserverpedia.com and liberal bias in wikipedia

    I think that it needs work on most of its articles about technology. For example, try looking for an article on the ipod. Or check out the pages on Apple and Microsoft.
