There are indeed. It's one of the blue spots in Batley & Spen.

Yup, that's some nasty shit right there. Apparently I need to chew some parsley in the morning.

Just watched Scott Pilgrim while the wife was in the bath (not her kind of film) and we've just started to watch The Thing for the gajillionth time. I have low expectations of this remake/prequel affair about the Norwegians due out this year. If I can get them low enough I might just enjoy it.

I'm a certifiable film geek but there are still a number of supposed classics that I haven't got around to watching yet
Gone With The Wind, The Wild Bunch, Seven Samurai and City Of God (although I have this one on my tivo box) spring to mind. A friend of mine prides himself on never having seen a Star Wars film.

You won't get that from a new £200 laptop, never mind a second-hand one.
If you want it to last, spend a bit more and get a good one. With the last two cheap laptops I got, the first one ended up taking ten minutes to boot into a usable state, and the second one literally fell to bits.

After 18 months the case had warped so much that most of the screws had fallen out and were impossible to screw back in, so all the removable panels were loose. The only thing that worked was the hard drive; everything else (power switch, monitor, keyboard, touchpad, hardware ports) had failed, and it would lock up if you left it somewhere too hot or too cold, or moved it, or didn't move it, or angered the knacked-laptop pixies in some other way.

As I say second hand.
and I got those specs 2.5 years ago new for maybe £250, oh dell dell have some decent refurbed ones for about my budget.

what was that second on you got so I can avoid it?
( CQ Knows the truth, all of it., Mon 5 Sep 2011, 23:47, Reply)

Packard Bell, forget what model. It was about £400 new five years ago.
The first one (custom-built by a third party) wasn't much better, but it got stolen before it fell to bits.
