I was impressed. They had the faulty drive was recieved at the Amazon returns centre by Friday. The overlap was nice because it meant that I was able to securely format the old drive to remove all my personal information. I could not afford the time to do a 7 sweep delete format as it would have tak...

Just thought I would post an note about two computer issues I had recently. 1) Ordered a new 2tb hard disk from Amazon and it kept disconnecting from my computer randomly giving me an error on the computer saying it would corrupt my files unless I disconnected correctly (ie safely eject hardware opt...

Nicely spotted mr_e, I have updated the post to include the rates. In summary this changes how you look at the statistics. Volume vs rates are as follows

Back to the Future is a series of photographs by Irina Werning. A beautiful concept and very well done, I would love to have a try at this sometime (though the photographs of me as a kid are just rubbish so it would have to be a photo of someone else!). There is a great photograph of the wife and h...

House by Kuenzel Architects. An interesting design, very neatly proportioned and detailed. I was liking the internal stairs as well.

She must be Welsh! Shoot her with an arrow! (Obviously said in jest just in case i am going to get sued Twitter style!)

That makes gun purchases easier by a long shot. I guess that it means they think that selling s...

SALT - spy thriller with Angelina Jolie being beaten to a pulp! Great action, Bad ending.

Robert Kubica has been severely injured in a rally crash in Italy. I feel very sad for him because his right hand, arm and ankle has been injured and there is no news about if he will regain usage of his hand. It could spell the end of a very promising F1 career.

That's a bit weird marking it down because it isn't another product!! I haven't really used an iPod Touch so I can't comment. I guess it would be as good as the iPhone in terms of apps, music and video. :-D As I bet you can guess I love my iPhone. It is one of the best technology buys i have ever ma...
