Apple or PC 25th January 2013 6:51 AM
VM ware is cool Used to run windows in Linux at one point before I dual booted one of my older PC's with linux and windows. If memory serves it was gentoo and XP

I don't know about macs tbh. I've either always used Linux or Windows. I'm an artist so most times I'm working with photoshop and such and even though I could easily get it for a mac, I've never been interested in swapping over.
Windows OS cell phones! 25th January 2013 6:47 AM
My eldest came to me at one point and said that her friend had a lumia and that windows 8 kept freezing the phone, so she went back to her blackberry. Do you have any of those problems at all? I mean it could just be the phone itself being a bit of a dud then.

I have an iphone 4, and tbh Don't think I'm going to be swapping it for anything at the moment. Unless its an iPad or galaxy tab I barely use my phone for texts and messages and the OS has almost never given me any problems. Maybe I'm just scared of the whole windows + smartphone = happiness equation.
PC Building! 25th January 2013 6:42 AM
Some like gardening, some like to paint I build PC's. Its relaxing tbh. Never really had problems like that when troubleshooting I have a lab with enough spares to build a few (low end) rigs lol. I am in the process of building two for my girls. I'm going to have to splash out on the graphics cards though, they want to play high end games like Sacred and Dungeon siege 3.

Just about the most fun I have ever had, was taking two IBM Think Pads, and making one Was looked at weirdly, but from both, I could source the parts to build one, with a RAM upgrade included. When it worked I was the only one smiling.... wonder why lol.

Do you lie to your kids? Obviously 24th January 2013 7:40 AM
I think the biggest lie starts just after child birth and everyone starts cooing "Oh isn't she / he a beautiful baby".... Really?

Tweetdeck's closing down? 23rd January 2013 10:53 AM
PANIC gripped thousands of social network users yesterday when it emerged that UK authorities had moved to wind down the company behind Tweetdeck, a social networking "dashboard" that allows people to update their Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn accounts from the one page.

So it looks as though its the end for tweetdeck. I mean what's next then? Are they going to take down all software that members use to update on twitter?

One thing caught my eye though, but maybe that's just because I am not a huge fan of social media.

Users will continue to clog up each other's timelines with inane chatter mixed with the odd insightful comment and new piece of information.Happy days are here again.
