    The Nokia is indeed looking nice, and you're right, I didn't know about it.
    The Palm does look nice, guess it's a bit bulky judging by the slide-keyboard...I wanna know the price!!

    Hope somebody can help with this Ipod Query. My Ipod has started cutting off the end of newly transferred songs somtimes by up to a minute. The recordings in the library are complete and I have been sorting it by deleting off the player and re-transfering this seems to work fine. A small inconvienience but annoying

    Me too. Is Casper writing a reply above? All I can see is a quote and a blank line?


  4. Argyle's message...from a topic he opened. I said to him that I would copy his question, so feel free to answer him.

    A physical keyboard always beats a touchscreen and I do love the slide out format (check out Nokia's upcoming N97). The abount of typos I make on my ipod is unreal.

    He might want to restore the iPod.

    I'll skip it too, it needs double the RAM of Vista (1 GB) and Vista is already a system hog.


  8. What? It needs 2GB? Surely not - it's pretty much built from the Vista code. Maybe if Microsoft went about getting rid of old legacy crap that 98% of the population bothers with anymore and introducing newer features we might have a faster operating system on our hands.

    Whatever happened to 640K RAM?















    By the way, that fish picture looks horrible and bland, no matter the resolution.

    Vista is a system hog, but if you're clever you can minimise that hogging of resources: turn sidebar off, turn off a few unnecessary system services and generally stopping crap starting up when Vista boots, is the best way to optimise it.

    I currently run a 3GHz Intel Celeron (!), 1GB RAM and 7300GT video card and it runs nicely enough on most stuff.


    No, I mean the MSR for RAM is up from 512 MB to 1GB.
