The fastest computer I used was an admins comp at Centrica (the oil company). He had a dual Samsung DH display.... and that's all I can say really! lol I wanted access to a Norwegian server but my current access rights wouldn't allow me so I got to use his computer. Apart from the amazing display, it was lightening fast.

Do You Believe In Magic? Do u belive in magic =?
Merovingian replied to Feelay's topic in Science and Technology
I am very much a realist and do not believe in such things. It's just an old word that was used to explain things which couldn't be explained. Today, we have science to explain such things I do enjoy Derren Brown and his style of entertaining. He deals more in human psychology and uses that in his programs. He's worth a look up on youtube. The thing I like most about him is that he explains what he does after the experiment. If there is one thing I cannot stand, it's a smug magician! -
Does anyone still play this? I recently dug this out and started playing it again about a week ago. I completely forgot how enthralling this game is! I stopped playing during university as I was getting too obsessed with it! Its also quite funny how when I last played, I was good but always seem to end up evil by about the 3rd-4th land. I was also going to ask if the second version was any good? I know it had more battle theme running through it.

I would also agree with these. I've also used kapaskery antivirus and Norton on my mac. An old uni friend use to recommend using the panda anti-virus (you'll have to google it). I think it has some license thing which means you can reuse it on other machines, thus saving money.

I think this guy posted something about India in another topic. I read it and posted the link where he copied it from. -
Despite India's Caution, Pakistan Rakes Up J&k Issue

This is just copied from a news source? http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Is this just to get his posts up? -
I've not played this game as I don't have an XBox360. I'm not terribly good at these games anyway, so I'd expect to get annoyed by it quite quickly. I can just about manage HL2.

Coming from both a Catholic (ex) and biological background, I can say I've seen and read deeply into both areas. As I am a biologist, I firmly hold the belief that there is no god and that our creation is down to simple genetics and evolution. I just find it too difficult to accept that an idea (which is outdated) to be true. Religion was a powerful tool in the dark ages, which was able to guide the weak and teach leanings to the masses of uneducated people everywhere. It gave them hope in an otherwise hopeless world. Since then, things have changed. As a race, I believe we need to concentrate on each other and not our separate religions. If not, I believe we will eventually tear ourselves apart. We can, as a race, develop space travel, surgery, physics, technology etc.... but we can't let go of a belief in a god? That, I'll never understand.

Does anyone have any thoughts on prion diseases e.g. vCJD I haven't read through all of these posts but I do have a degree in biology and have studied Microbiology while at university. Maybe we should not concern ourselves with comparing a virus to higher organisms just yet, as they are considerably different. Is a prion disease live or dead? Is a virus similar to a prion and would you consider a prion dead and a virus to be alive? Are these just intermediary phases of their evolution, which could lead onto further developments and eventually, a 'living being'? Let me know what you think.

I've seen that light keyboard before on other forums. Despite it looking very cool, I thought it would be harder to type as you couldn't feel the keys as well as a normal one. Check out this keyboard! Its very 'Star Treck'!

What I Learned About Dark Knight movie review
Merovingian replied to JohnNitro's topic in Websites and Web Designing
Totally. You cant complain too much about the length. At least they've bothered to invest in a better plot and decent character development. If that takes more time, then I'll happily watch for longer. -
Looking For Best Hosting ?
Merovingian replied to josonburfield's topic in Websites and Web Designing
My friend highly recommends One.com also. I'm willing to give this place a try (once I have enough credits). -
What I Learned About Dark Knight movie review
Merovingian replied to JohnNitro's topic in Websites and Web Designing
I completely agree! I did feel that the film was a little too long tough. -
HL2 All the way. The Orange Box was pretty good as well. I wouldn't mind playing Halo 2. I've had a go on the first one with mates but that was quite a while ago.

Opera does work on Mac but we use Safari

Thanks guys. When I get enough credits, I'll have a go at uploading my page. I made a similar version using DreamWeaver but I though the iWeb version looked better. I'm not experienced in site building but I want to learn (one day perhaps). Using iWeb seemed a bit quicker and better aimed at someone with my particular skills. Thanks once again!

Hello, I'm a new user to this forum (as well as the free hosting thing) and I had a question. Does this site support iweb? I've been building my site using that app and was hoping I could use that and upload my data to Xisto.
