If that's a 'momentous year' what's a bad year?
It will be interesting to see what they've come up with but i'm not sure about the always on function. If the console has the always on function I won't be buying one.
Regardless of how you feel about using Flash one thing in certain it's a buggy mess.
The ZX Spectrum, helping nerds and geeks get laid since 1982.
A good addition to many Star Trek fans collection but I wouldn't pay that much.
"An ICO spokesperson said:
We have recently been made aware of a possible data breach involving UKPC, and are now making enquiries into the circumstances of the alleged breach before deciding what action, if any, needs to be taken."
Shouldn't that say what action will be taken.
I don't agree with always on and I don't think I ever will. My console is not always on and I think I should be able to decide how I use the product I legally purchased.
At first I didn't like XP that much but I got used to it. Now it's like those old comfortable slippers people have.
Re: The funts are still loose in the asylum!!
The cash machin at my local bank runs on XP. I know this because it got hung on the shut down screen.
Whether you agree or not with how anti-spam organisations operate, blocklists are a necessary evil.
Windows 8 Second Edition?
Can't really judge as we don't have any information about the stare of their relationship.
First thought was turning down sex to play on an Xbox, someone needs to sort out their priorities.
This is just negligence plain and simple.
Oh my!
If I Iphone hasn't got any pants on does this mean it's naked?
If there is lapse in basic procedure then someone needs to be held accountable.
With all the previous press coverage why did these people think it was OK to send disks out unencrypted?
Funny yes but hardly news worthy.
RIANZ has also told NZ Radio it believes installing a BitTorrent client is proof that an individual is sharing files illegally.
There was me thinking that BitTorrent also had legal applications as well. Oh well silly me.
Well I can't really complain about more Thunderbirds, how about more Captain Scarlet?
"We have a right to privacy in our Constitution, but this does not mean a fundamental right to data protection,"
I'm sure it in the American Constitution but over here that means nothing. We have our laws and you have yours.
There is that little bit of small print that says they can change the T&C at anytime without notifying anyone? it must be around here somewhere.
I think i'll stick with my business ISP with it's in house call centre.
Anything that can get kids involved in science is great.
I live in a fully copper area and I use a dedicated business ISP. I may pay more but I pay for decent service.
Re: Dammit
Did he break it or did Mrs Land shoot it and then knock it over?
They can relaunch it as many times as they like I still will not be buying it or a new PC with it.
It's Windows 7 with a flashy touch screen interface (sorry make that Silverlight).
The fine seems a little bit small considering the scale.
I still say Sony should have known better.
If MS want to get into the hardware market then suppose it makes sense for MS to buy in to Dell as they are big player.
Re: Can someone please enlighten me
Drugs were rife back then but the man still cheated.
I'd be sad to see HMV go but they are their own worst enemy. What other music store gives you a laugh by putting Bon Jovi in the metal section?
Overpriced goods that are cheaper elsewhere, instore music that is way too loud (and usually music I don't like) and staff that have never really been that helpful either.
HMV have consistantly failed to keep up with the times (downloads, cheaper prices etc). This is not solely because of Amazon and a like.
I doubt they will get a buyer for the business but iIf they did it would be much reduced in size.
They could put the brochure in with products in an electronic format. They've moved manuals over to a PDF on a CD so why not include the security brochure as well?
Microsoft has never been friendly with open source. The only reason they are doing this is to try to boost their market share.
I wish all trains ran on fun!
Great letters though.
I don't want to use Uplay and I won't buy their games if they continue to push this. To me Uplay is just another copyright protection scheme.
I remember the fun I had trying to get Rainbow Six Vegas 2 to work on my PC. After three weeks of emails going backwards and forwards to their support department they gave me a crack to remove the copyright protection that was causing the problem.
There's only one word I can think of right now and that is trash.
I like the dad's thinking on this one but i'd have just removed the plug.
DS9 was really good and I enjoyed it but I say B5 is way better.
Microsoft has been trying to squeeze competitors out of their markets for years, how ironic.
Another one of these bugs that been around for years and never found.
I don't know anything about the lady but i'd like to know how any mother of four could pay that kind of fine?
It seems very excessive to me.
Pick up book and throw!
All the billions they apparently spent on security after the whole Gary incident really helped then.
I wonder how many of these people are playing the multiplayer?
Stopped playing it myself as I got sick of being camped on and spawn killed.
How much was spent on this report?
Can we the tax payer have our money back please?
You missed WOPR from Wargames.
Sounds like Apple want to charge different prices to different companies. As Samsung is a big competitor I would expect them to want to charge Samsung more. It's not illegal and it's quite normal to do this.
RIM need to do a reboot of their business.
Take and battery out and put it back in.
Wow now that is an overreaction.
"The insurance firm also said that it would be improving staff training and updating its processes"
Sounds like the usual lessons have been learnt speech to me.
