Re: The idea is not new

Indeed it's been around for many years with enthusiasts and overclockers.

Usually they pop up mounted in a fish tank, with all the rocks, decorations and even a few plastic fish thrown in for good measure.

Cool to see someone's taken the idea to the server level, in theory it's a very efficient way of keeping things cool.

Why give a primary school kid a tablet at all.

You can't trust em to not smash the TV remote to pieces, let alone 100's of pounds of fruity tablet.

tmTM

More Crap

from Digitimes.

Please, they don't even know what the truth is anymore.

tmTM

I take it

Google won't be invited onto Iran's internet.

Such a shame.

tmTM

What about

All the other rubbish ads on facebook.

Like the one that pops up constantly telling me my missus is 'using Netflix' and therefore I should too.

Last time I check LoveFilm was not Netflix.

Re: So, in Soviet Russia...

More importantly.

If Microsoft are paying some Russian company to basicly commit crimes on the web how easy does it make them to sue?

Do two wrongs make a right now??

Re: Not Plausible

The entire article is BS.

"Apple now has a retina iPod Touch, iPhone and iPad"

As far as I was aware the screen in the iPhone 4S and ipod touch has not changed since 2010 and is not retina.

tmTM

Zombies?

There better be.

Here's hoping the single player storyline lasts longer than the usual 5 minutes.

tmTM

Money down the drain?

or is it up the wall.

Either way it's alot of money that could have been put to better use.

tmTM

Re: Meh

Indeed.

Because when I'm busy writing letters and fiddling with spreadsheets what would really help is to be able to maul the screen around.

Re: Legally Blond

You liked Legally Blond?

Re: pre-dated the grant

Were the patents not filed a while back by Bosch, I can't understand the 2011 date.

Is this the new way to deal with patent trolls, keep them in court so long that by the time judgement is passed it doesn't matter if you win or loose because you have moved on and developed a workaround.

Re: A personal apology from Delia is required

At least a free kit should have been given to the lad as an apology.

Norwich FC, you bunch of inbred, six fingered bullys.

tmTM

Legally Blond

Sex an the city 1 & 2

Miss Congeniality

Epic movie (in fact anything made by those two fools, except naked gun)

This list was clearly not very well compiled

tmTM

Re: Already sorted then

I agree, it looks very fake and quite odd.

It's not so much 3D as more obvious, I didn't feel like stuff was flying out of the screen at me, just like certain things were more 'in my face' while other stuff was annoyingly ever so slightly out of focus in the background.

tmTM

Re: Quite pants?

£1700 is £1700 whichever way you cut it, and if it's earnt facebooking sat in the sun on some freshly cut grass then well done to the successful applicant.

tmTM

Something

To keep Raspberry PI users busy?

tmTM

How

Do the Indonesians manage to do something that we tried and failed at for ten years?

Not that I support the ID card fiasco in any way, but if it had failed faster it could have cost us less.

Re: h 2

It's poor speakers in general. The standard ipod headphones are woeful and everything sounds flat and horrible regardless of bitrate, use some nice Sennheisers or Soundmagic earphones and suddenly the difference in bitrate is easy to tell.

Most people are happy with std stuff and low bitrate, it works for them. Makes my ears hurt personally, bad music is bad for your health.

tmTM

Bought it.

Enjoyed it.

Quite abit different to the other resident evil games I've played but it's still good fun, plenty of gore and blowing things heads off.

tmTM

Bothered?

No, you will find few people who care.

What go's around comes around.

tmTM

Sorry but no

TDK just can't make good headphones, and filling them with new tech and slapping a whopping price tag on doesn't change things.

If you want some genuinely good headphones get some SoundMagic E10's or Sennheiser CX-300 II - just make sure they are genuine one's not fakes from eBay or dodgy Amazon dealers.

tmTM

Fanbois?

The terms seems to get some peoples backs up. But when they turn up to buy the item 4 days before it's released I think all of the mocking is appropriate.

The lack of normal stupidity is a good sign, perhaps people have finally realised that queuing at midnight to buy the next, slightly updated version of what you already have is a complete mugs game.

tmTM
Facepalm

Yea but

It was convenient how all 3 shops were almost next door to each other.

The group really should have put some thought into how many outlets they need in one place, especially after they bought Gamestation.

There's 3 in my local shopping centre.

Re: the Ovlov looks ok.

In theory yes.

In reality no-one is going to buy a car who's name is so close to 'Fister'

tmTM

Re: Xenon flash

Absolutely, I've not had a Xenon flash phone since my old SE K750.

The pictures that could take at night are still better than my SGSII can manage.

Technically

The 5 cores can be shut down to just one core running at a paltry 500Mhz so when it's not being pushed it should have a decent life.

If you decide to fire up a graphics hungry game or start streaming video over the net you're probably on your own tho.

tmTM

Why Not

Grapple the space junk, then bolt a little rocket to it and point it towards earth.

That way the space janitor doesn't have to perish in a fiery death every time it takes out the trash.

tmTM

Me Too

At the hight of the price hike I got a 2TB seagate external for under £80, really nice quiet little drive inside of it as well :)

tmTM

i agree

It was so bad I can't remember it, I only finished it 6 months ago.

Now Metal Gear Solid 2 - thats an ending (not in a good way, in a total WTF?!? kinda way)

tmTM

Well clearly not anymore

tmTM

Yawn

More totally unsubstantiated Apple rubbish.

I'm an analyst and I predict no 7inch iPad, who wants to run this rubbish?

tmTM

A little late?

If the case had any genuine merit surely they'd of filed it ages ago, in many country to stop the phone being released in the first place.

This seems like a desperate pathetic attempt with no hope in hell of success.

tmTM

Acer

Still not Apple, adjust pricing accordingly.

Enjoy increased sales figures.

Not hard really.

tmTM
FAIL

HP have cracked it?

They made a good spec tablet, sold it at a rock bottom price and provided very decent after sales software support.

Now they are out of the tablet game?!?

Shocker

Asus are working on a successor.

You'd never have guessed that one

tmTM

No subscription

But still you keep coming back and even bothering to leave a comment as well.

Busy Day?

tmTM

.

The current CPU already happily overclocks to 1.5Ghz.

tmTM

Those are fashion mags?

I always assumed they were photoshop weekly.

Anyone foolish enough to believe they represent a real outcome through the products use deserves to be relieved of their hard-earned.

The python

Is the Apex predator in it's natural environment,

oh well

They can't complain.

I'm surprised

I thought Nokia would be sunk by now.

The new phones and the OS are decent, but Elop has done massive and un-nesessary damage to the company, why is he still employed there?

tmTM
Stop

Last years rumours

We heard the same crap last year when everyone expected the iPhone 5 to be released.

They were rubbish back then, they're rubbish now.

tmTM

off to join Sega

how the mighty have fallen.

tmTM

It's the mobile........for the home.

To quote Ali G

tmTM

The truth

has never been so plain and simple.

tmTM

Why

Was this not brought to light in the case.

Is it illegal to say "oh and by the way, this fella has a history of this, look he was at it two years ago"

tmTM

Civil Lawsuit?

To be conducted in which country?

tmTM

Take it to the Apple store and have a round of 'can your tablet do this..........."
