If Vista was a Performance Power jigsaw that would make Linux a complete "top brands" tool range. Sure it's a steep learning curve but the gains are in you and the quality from this tool is awesome. It's free to download and distros like Mandriva offer a user friendly interface, and then, way more progs than you would ever get with a Winedows o/s.

If you like hand tooling your own software and bespoke hardware ...

 Post subject: Laptop Blue screen of death
PostPosted: Thu Apr 19, 2007 10:27 pm 
My laptop keeps getting the blues screen of death and the error message does not stay on the screen long enough for me to read it before it re-starts. It is currently on XP home edition.

I'm thinking of formatting it and installing XP pro, does anyone think this will help as I think the blue screen of death could be software related?

 Post subject: Using a pocket PC (Ipaq) as a Sat Nav system.
PostPosted: Tue Mar 20, 2007 4:38 pm 
I have just got a pocket PC. It is a Compaq, Ipaq.

It says it has facilities for Satellite Navigation.

I think I must have to buy some sort of card and software for this then?

But I am wondering how much this'll cost me?

Is it just worth me buying a Sat Nav?

Well i have built my own website from here and can recommend it :grin:

Its free even the domain names free! Take the beta one first you can also upgrade later if you need too.
