    Obviously computers and programing basics and computer games. Footy (Aussie rules [Best game in the world!!!]) and TV.
  1. yeah sry i shoulda mentioned its a TP-Link TD-8810 4port adsl 2+ router.
  2. i live in a sharehouse atm and im tryin to find a way to measure the downloads of people depending on what port they use in the modem. I dont really know if its possible or not but thought i would ask anyway. (sorry if i've posted this in the wrong place btw)
  3. This is a tricky one, I have no idea what direction AMD are planning to go with their new aquisition, but after thinking about the progress they've made over the past few years I would tend to trust that they know what they are doing. $5.4 billion is a big gamble to play.
  4. I don't believe that anyone has any right to decide what other people can or can not do unless what they are doing harms them. I disaggree with the death penalty because killing the criminal is against his will, i don't believe that assisted suicide should be illegal, however a legal document should be made which requires the signature of both parties (the person who wants to die and the person killing them) to ensure that the person wants to die and that the person isnt just killing them for his/her own profit. It would probably be a good idea to require a reason for the assiste suicide, this reason should be something that causes permanent uncureable suffering of some type (be that physical or emotional).
  5. yay im worth $1,771,050. Most of that came from my iq . Do a lot of billionares live in canada or something?
  6. I personally have only ever used McAffee so i cant really judge, I was just wondering the numbers of people who prefer one over the other or can't choose.
  7. What about games like CS or battlefield where one well placed bullet will kill u? While i admit that realism is not feasible in some games (i.e. most sports games), i think that in most games it is a possibility and as games get more advanced they will get more realistic. An example may be that in a FPS, if you get hit in the leg you can't walk properly until you get killed and must enter the game as a different character, or in hand to hand combat games, instead of having your life get lower (which dosent really work) your energy could get lower (walking and running should also have a minor affect on this) until the character blocks to slow because he is tired and gets stabbed (if the stab wound is not bad he can continue but will be very limited). I believe that in the future we will be playing games like Age of Empires where every little guy you hire has a detailed personality and has needs (something like the sims only probly more detailed).
  8. Ok, this is the best desktop PC i can come up with from one company (http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/) they will build u your computer though i dont know if they can send it to japan.

These I deemed as "optional".

I know i probly went too in depth when looking at all the software and stu fun anyway. It'll also cost u about $75 to put it together and like i said i don't know about the shipping. By the way ÂŁ5720 is about 10,000 US dollars.
  9. Its an ok comp. I'm in the process of upgrading now. Ive got everything except the graphics card.

I'm gonna put XP pro on as well as Linux (as yet i havent decided on a distro though im leaning towards Ubuntu)
  10. You can look at this two ways: 1) It's relatively unimportant virus that is easy to block or remove.2) While this virus isn't a big deal, it may be foreshadowing a lot more which may do more damage.Personaly i would go with option 2 however it will take many years for a more damaging virus to be made. I also believe that Linux and Unix users are a lot more careful with their computer and have firewalls and don't do stupid things like download huge files that unkown people have sent to them (i know a couple of friends who have done that).
  11. I found the page that Romulo was referring to here is a link: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ It's quite good if its true which i think it is (there is so much rubbish on the net these days its hard to tell). Who would have thought that the length you register your domain name for would affect your google ranking?
  12. I think that Intel should've used whatever resources it used as an insentive to skype on building some better processors. It is obvious that AMD processors are more than good enough to handle a 10 person conference call. I don't think Intel should be doing this and trying to damage AMD's reputation. That being said I can't say that i wouldn't try to do the same thing if i was in their position.
  13. I play there too and i also recommend it! (as you can probably tell by my sig :-) ) My only problem is that i forget i have a game going and time out
  14. I went to play a tcp/ip game with a mate the other night but it wont let me connect to him or him connect to me. I tried using a program called gamespy arcade, and it told me that because my internal ip address is 192.168.x.x and my external one is 60.240.x.x it could cause me problems. (I'm using a Netcomm NB5 if you're wondering) How can i make it so that i can play tcp/ip games? Thanks in advance for any help given
  15. I love diablo 2 lod, it is one of the best games i have ever played (which is saying a lot). I havent actually played starcraft but i should cause ive only ever heard good things about it. Warcraft 3 is good but i never really got into the storyline and WoW was rubbish because you have to pay for it constantly which i am very much against.
