    When I tried to do it, they added a £5/month thing to my account, but then also added a £5/month goodwill, so I wasn't paying for it. I have no idea what it is doing, but there is …

    +1 for OCZ. I went through three Kingston drives in a year. This OCZ is over a year old now and still going strong

    I would have preferred it if Apple had designed it to be the same thickness, given it a bigger battery, took out the CD drive and allowed us to replace SSD and RAM... As great as t…

    When I was working for a company, I would get it an 8:15 and left at 17:00 on the dot. When asked if I could stay to do something which I felt could wait until the morning, I would…

    I'm really glad I have come across this... I've had this for a couple of years, about once or twice a month. For me it feels like something is applying a lot of pressure to the sid…

    I love Mac OS, but I definitely do not hate Bill Gates. He made computers affordable and accessible, while making a lot of money. A lot of that money has gone to charities which is…

    The only time I'm going to feel concerned about the sandboxing on Mac OS apps is if it's forced onto all applications. If that happens, I shall leave Mac just like I did Windows an…

    I purchased a few spare power supplied for my BBC a couple of years ago. I'm not letting go due to a broken power supply!

    Yep - Buttons are bad enough, but things like sliders are just the worst things imaginable!! I thought it might be worth looking into web workers, but everything seems to interact …

    I'm writing really a very large app for the company I work for. We're using PhoneGap with HTML and JavaScript and have many plugins. What we are not having problems with is the fac…

    I've been in a situation where I've needed to queue about 100k of messages. Each message unique with custom attributes populated also from MySQL. I used to generate the messages an…

    I imagine it would be possible to run games on remote servers, so people don't have to spend a lot of money on an amazing computer.

    I have a tiny company, and any automated emails always have written at the bottom "If you have any questions, simply reply to this email" People are always slightly surprised by it…

    Actually didn't realise how many things I like in Lion... "When you do things right, no one will notice you've done anything at all"
