Re: re: quality

It isnt exactly immune but a 4tb zfs raid nas is good enough for the home (freenas) easy enough for most people and a cheapiah option.

or actually in charge. Surely he is just a puppet figurehead and doesnt actually make any decisions at all? From the scant few TV clips ive seen the youngster looks stoned or simply unaware of anything that is happening around him.

Prenda simply forgot to "lobby" the correct fundraisers/parties/institutions.

Re: @Shane Kent

I have tried. With w7 I clicked start then programs then the app. With w8 I scrolled, scrolled then some intellihelp popped up when my trackpad hovered over some metro app. After dismissing and scrolling some more I accidentally touched the side which made some nuts bar appear. Dismissed that screen which made my apps tiles reset so I scrolled more. It took me longer to find the app in my now huge mess of tiles than it did to start my w7 laptop from cold.

W8 is shit on non touchscreen trackpad laptop.

still tasted good. I know what goes into sausages, doesnt stop me liking "mixed offal bags" either.

non virginal?

Re: location markers

indeed. especially if you are in a car - for a fair few locations there may only be one particular road suitable so that will make you stand out.

Re: Actually

say you do do 35 miles per day though. I can only extrapolate from charging values but as an electric car you charge (for free? how do these charging posts work?) in town and charge at home overnight. so 7.3 hours would normally give you 70 miles so you'll need a quarter of this for 17.5 miles actually charged to you. Thats 1.8 hours at 3kw draw or 5.5kwh at about 13p per kwh thats about 70p. 70p for 17.5 miles is hardly "cheap" running and that is assuming you can charge for free at work. LPG probably costs about the same.

Obviously there is a lot of extrapolation. Im assuming a full 3kw draw from the socket for the 1.8 hours. I couldnt find any figures other than multiply the 22kw x 60 mins out by 7 for an 80% charge. also you will probably look at getting the cheapest possible electricity tariff, I just picked a scottish power saver one at random, im sure there are cheaper ones. Even so, at a MIGHTY cheap 10p kwh 55p is STILL not a cheap 17.5 miles considering your battery lease cost on top (and assuming you can charge for free at work for half your journey)

better off getting an LPG car or a really cheap runabout with eco engine.

Re: Hmm, markets probably split again

but tablets wont work for everyone though. You are still going to need drone computers. A hell of a lot of company software has been "online" for years, many being web apps or at least browser apps. These can run happily in a tablet but still arent suitable for the person on the phone logging a call or raising support tickets.

It is no fun typing on tablets even with keyboards added as a bluetooth option. Screen is too small, fiddly to set up in a hurry etc whereas a laptop can still do the business and with an SSD packing laptop costing less than a tablet with external screen, docking station and keyboard you will still have a taker.

Tablets have their uses but they arent the one-size-fits all.
