You know this pictures just going to make you want to upgrade to Vista right away...


Also, I don't know what's scarier..that I know every single one of these OS's...hell I've owned boxes that ran all of these OS's



or the fact that I can spot that one is missing..I'd hate to think what Freebsd is going to be....

So would you buy the Iphone from apple the creator, or from Nokia, the phone company that's copying...


Well depends on which ones available first in the UK really, oh and with HSDPA as well...no super 3g, not buying it...

Virgin Media chief Burch resigns

Virgin Media chief Burch resigns:
Virgin Media chief executive Steve Burch quits with immediate effect, the cable broadcaster says.

Personal reasons? could it be he didn't want to get fired perhaps? Now I'm not saying that's the case, but the merger didn't go so well did it now, they seem to have managed to get the worst of both NTL and Telewest, and the poorly chosen fight with Sky is losing them money.

Just why they signed up Sky for Living with CSI, Criminal Minds etc and didn't get Sky1 and the reciprocally amazes me. Yes I'm sure SKY would have wanted more money for Sky 1 than Living and Bravo and the other channels, but perhaps I could understand this more if Sky customers were without the Virgin channels as well as the Virgin customers being without the Sky ones....

Michael Bay responds to Paramount's abandonment of Blu-ray No Transformer 2

Michael Bay responds to Paramount's abandonment of Blu-ray No Transformer 2:
Michael Bay -- the director behind "Transformers,""Bad Boys,""Pear Harbor," etc. -- just threw down with Paramount in his personal blog. He states, "I want people to see my movies in the best formats possible. For them to deny people who have Blu-ray sucks! They were progressive by having two formats. No Transformers 2 for me!"

Except he didn't, it was a comment in the forums

(now broken with a 503 due to being dugg)

If you want to see the forum post, look here..

OSX P990 P99i isync problem solved, who needs the iphone?

So whilst mulling over the fact that if the P990i would only do isync properly, and that the Iphone wasn't going to cut it unless it had 3g in Europe, I decided to take on Sony Ericcson. I mean these are the guys that said it would work when the phone was released. When Vodafone sold me the phone, they said it work, because hey, Sony Ericsson said it would work.

Well when I first contacted Sony Erissson, they weren't too enthusiastic about it, indeed it wasn't until I pointed out that their white paper on the subject still listed it as going to work, did they show any interest, but I got a we're not really doing anything about this, as it's an old phone and we've moved on.

However, when I pointed out to Vodafone, that I could legitimately return the phone as it was not fit for purpose, they asked Sony Ericsson to open the case.

That was 3 months ago, after a bit of poking at them, I get this in the mail today.

Tested it, my wife who's a driving Instructor Surrey Downs Driving Academy - blatent plug
http://www.sdda.co.uk/sub/contactus.html to get in touch if you need a great driving instructor in Surrey (UK Surrey that is) is finally going to stop bugging my about getting her phone working with her Mac!

Yay.

for everyone else, here's the link.

Enjoy.

Thank you for contacting the Sony Ericsson Call Centre.

Please note this is not the P1 hack that was about a while ago, this is the real deal from SE themselves.
