    want a laptop

    If you can afford Photoshop and MS Office for home use then you have more money than I do. For what I need gthumb does what I want and Libre Office opens everything work sends me. My reason for not using Microsoft products is their lying, cheating ways and the idea that they can buy off anyone...

    want a laptop

    No, I've lived in several countries and regions, why do I have to re-buy DVD's I have bought because I have moved? It's all a con to make us keep buying the same stuff, Microsoft and Apple must have got a cut, but I did not. :roll:

    Yeah fair enough, you people are purists and while I admire the results could not spend the time doing it. :aw:

    want a laptop

    Debian has thousands of applications, all for free, you think OSX has more? lmao I can do anything you can do on OSX, also I don't get told what music I can and can't play. Or where I can buy DVD's from, as for games, you haven't heard of PlayOnLinux then? Home - PlayOnLinux - Run your...

    Woman puts $700 gifts into wrong car trunk

    Anyone know how big the story is locally, if they mentioned my model of car on the news I know someone would tell me and I would go and look. Otherwise I could months without looking in there! :shock:

    Woman puts $700 gifts into wrong car trunk

    Yes, given some peoples desire for fame you would think the owner of the other car would come forward, come off as a good Samaritan and get 15 minutes of fame, or as you say there is no other car involved. :hmm:

    Christmas... ahhhhhh!!

    I talk to people one on one and ignore people trying to shout at me through the noise. I either sit and watch and talk to someone close or find a quiet spot and let people come and sit and talk one at a time. No point stressing over what I cannot do and if anyone can't be bothered then that's...

    Woman puts $700 gifts into wrong car trunk

    True but part of the story is because she just lost her job, so you have to wonder if it is a factor in the story or not.

    Homemade Coffee Snobs

    The Plus was $479 with $100 cashback so $379, that is awesome for the automation. I must admit the Premium was $849 some years ago but it has earned its money as I don't buy coffee out anymore, saving at least $5 per day over its lifetime. The Plus makes hotter drinks and the steamed milk is...

    Homemade Coffee Snobs

    The Lattissima Plus is much better, Cappuccino and Latte and the touch of a button, cleaning by the press of a button. Pods are $0.68 each but the quality is the same (or better) than most coffee shops. I just "upgraded" from the Premium to the Plus. :)

    want a laptop

    You've been buying some pretty crappy PC's if they only last 2-3 years. I have several machines older than 5 years at home and at work some older than 10 years.

    want a laptop

    I always buy the business version, currently a Samung (great screen) previously Dell (never again) and before that IBM or Lenovo as it is today. Recently bought a Toshiba with 8G Ram and a quad core processor and a 2Gb graphics card for about $1400 (we did a deal on that and a small netbook).

    I live in the UK, I'm 20, I'm male, I want a deaf girlfriend

    Being deaf doesn't make you immune to passing gas, unless you pass sweet scented gas, which I do not! lol

    Woman puts $700 gifts into wrong car trunk

    True but she didn't get IN the car. She opened the "trunk" put the gifts in and walked away.

    Apple wins motion to ban sale and import of some HTC phones

    It's in the news or did you miss that bit? lol

    Apple wins motion to ban sale and import of some HTC phones

    While I agree with you it is strange it is getting so much media attention. I guess Apple aren't buying the media moguls the way Microsoft (allegedly) did.
