  1. Funny, I'm doing exactly the same thing
  2. If my PC goes tits up then I'm very comfortable digging around in the registry and all the fiddly bits to sort it out. If my Mac ever did the same I wouldn't have a clue where to start as the entire file structure and program is completely different. I'm not saying that it's any more difficult to learn as I suspect it's not, it's just what I've grown up with and what I'm used to. For me, a PC makes the simple things more complicated than they need to be at time, whereas on a Mac the complicated stuff becomes an absolute impossibility to sort out. That's the real downsides to both units, although Win7 is about as perfect an OS as I've ever used and makes the call for OSX much less urgent. Still needs tidying up though.
  3. don't like it, don't read it seriously though, mac or pc? As a Mod, I don't have that luxury. I use both equally, and I find both to have equally irritating habits. I love my Apple hardware and iOS, but I wouldn't want to be without a Windows machine either as I understand the technical side of it better.
  4. Oh marvellous, another fanboi thread.

    Wii U

    So much fail in that pad it's untrue. I can see what they're trying to do and I respect that, but unless they can get this out at the same price point as the Wii, which isn't going to happen with those iPad control monsters, I doubt it's going to have the same success.

    My Le Mans efforts!

    That's brilliant!
  7. Whereabouts and who ran it? Recommendations are very much welcome on this thread
  8. This thread is truly epic. I won't post up the obvious, but I will say that for someone who says they won't lose a single second of sleep over what anyone says on an interweb forum, there's been an awful lot of argumentative replies from said person
  9. Wot no stickerz? I DECLARE THIS THREAD MADE OF FAIL
  10. Petrol will never be any cheaper than it is right now. Either buy silly cars and get them out of your system while you can, or win the lottery.
  11. DANGER TO MANIFOLD!!!
  12. I really, really like that Front and rear light clusters are stunning bits of design, and whilst it's not exactly a sexy car it's much better than the outgoing model. There's shades of Alfa in the rear three-quarter view you know...
  13. Top job there grandad Seriously though, looks a million times better and really has made a difference to the age of the motor. Nice work mate
  14. She probably did you a favour, now you can go and buy something that's not a FWD scrabble wagon
  15. The 370Z is very lucky that, at the price point it's at, there are no competitors. Excluding second hand cars, and going spec for spec, there's nothing to touch it. I suspect that Nissan might be counting themselves very fortunate. Any one know if there's any sales figures available for it yet?
  16. sum1s got the hump Back to the OP's question, I'd go for one of Tarmac's ones rather than a cheapy off eBay. Double price but at least you know what you're getting.
  17. I think you're absolutely correct Rich, and good on you for doing so. ;) What's with not using a capital letter at the start of a sentence too? That's as lazy as not bothering to indicate, your finger is right by the shift key! (Not aimed specifically at you Rich, but now I mention it... )
  18. Sorry for lazy quoting
  19. It's a mk3 MR2. Easy to tell by the windscreen rake. /mr2 geek
  20. I used it on the MR2, the VXR and the 350, but I won't use it on the 911. Make of that what you will.
  21. Numbers don't tell the whole story though. In terms of driving enjoyment they rate the Cayman R as very much right at the top of the tree, with the 1M not that far back but with the 370Z and the TTRS some distance behind. That's a shame for Nissan, a disaster for Audi, but it shows just how far on top Porsche and BMW are in terms of recognising what enthusiastic drivers want from a car. We don't necessarily want the fastest thing out there, we want something that just feels like the fastest thing out there.
  22. As I said, it depends on the tyre. 30psi would be fine for something like the PS2s, but it'd feel like treacle on FK452s.
  23. Not a bad track, but it's a bit generic for my taste. I think I probably wrote something like that on Dance eJay back in 1998!
  24. What tyres do you have on now, with regards to make not size? Tyre pressure is dependant on that far more than the size of the tyre itself. That said, 35psi front and back isn't a bad place to start and isn't going to put you in a ditch. Welcome along btw, get some pics and a post up in the Introduction section!
  25. Sounds like a good reason to do it, assuming we're talking fit nubile nurses
