your old zilog is still being used in controller devices, so its still kicking

I'll add to that Linux Products: prepare to have no spare time but feel good you achieved something by your self

well when 1 movie is like 700mb, you only 100mb left for gaming and surfing, I couldn't function on that, youtube would eat that in ten minutes, so maybe you use it a lot less then you think, I downloaded like 50 gb last month in shows and movies and my 200gb was gone in like 16 days streaming tv and video

batkiwi who are you with, I pay $100 a month for 200gb from telstra, but I'm in a country town and most of the cheaper guys like TPG don't work down here, we can have the main telcos or westnet and thats about it

Nope Kiwis are definately sheep shaggers, they even do an extra hour of shearing a day because they love them so much, and Australia's sheep flock is at a hundred year low

So are crappy Toshiba Sattelites, I've been tempted a few times to replace the single core semprom with a dual core athlon or duron

Woo Hoo first post time to get modded down lol

Well I'm one of those people who you think is stupid, but I do live in a rural area so the service from every one else is dismal. On the internet front I could get more downloads from another company but the few I tried ripped me of by saying I was on a cap but charging me standard rates on top of the cap (AAPT) and if I move to another house they treat as breaking the contract and charge me extra (westnet), and the bloody mobiles, telstra works every where with a next g phone, and good reception on digital out of town, I had a vodaphone, virgin and Crazy johns and their signal would die as soon as leave a town. Plus because my bills a paid on time they give me discounts, happy to add and change a plan for me, the service from them has been awesome, especially when I was a bit younger and some times struggled to pay bills I could ring them and other to pay it of in instalments, unfortunately AAPT wouldn't give us the same option, even though I couldn't pay it because it was too high because of there fuck up. The idea of keeping the copper lines is a brilliant one, especially in the country where we have quite a few power failures and the phones just keep working wich is an absolute releif when I have small children, I pay more but moneys no substitute for service and reliability IMHO.

Bahahahahaha resistance is futile If I could I'd mod up your comment +1 funny

bloody hell, to many Occa's, need to bust a stubbie on someones noggin, oh fuck it she'll be right mate

Crikey, fair shake of the sauce bottle mate

Thats exactly what I was thinking, and the fact they kept mentioning LOD, just change the L to a N, the brotherhood of NOD are are about to attack and these Tesla Coils are the perfect defense. Just need a fleet of mammoth tanks with 2 turrets and a set of rocket launchers each, a commando and a few battleships and we'll be fine

yeah I second that, it reminds me of the USS Yorktown, theres a damn good reason people don't use windows for mission critical stuff, its great for computer games but I wouldn't trust my live with it

So do I have to swirl my computer around to get wine at its best, that must be why I can't get COD to install on ubuntu. LOL

Same here, but I've installed xfce and am now tweaking it so its looks like gnome 2. Also i set my / drive as a separate partition too my home folder so when precise pangolin comes out I'm going to install Xubuntu instead of Ubuntu and try and import my settings, I did try oneric but it seemed very buggy and slow, mind you I did install gnome shell and used fall-back mode which isn't as good as gnome 2 or even xfce for that matter, can't stand Unity, to much like OSX, window controls should be on the window not the task bar, well when your a heavy mouse user like me anyway. Another thing I like about xfce is my two screens have different wallpapers which I really like.
