    Single Cores vs Dual Cores

    And with multi-threaded games coming out Dual-Core CPU's will outperform Single-Core CPU's of a similar clockspeed, multi-processing (parallel processing etc etc) is what's going to be the future, sure clockspeeds might get faster but with multi-threaded apps becoming more popular I can't see...

    Well I bought the drive as I needed a single place to store my files - having multiple copies on 2 laptops was a hassle - then I saw that media drive and I liked it, I've not used it for media purposes yet, but it'll be useful for backups without a computer (media card reader on the front) for a...

    Which 22"?

    Those Samsung 22" screens are meant to be a dream, they're top of their class from what I've heard and read. I've just bought a 22" LG 22LS4R monitor (1680 x 1050, 5ms, 3000:1), it's £240 though - however it's a little more than just a PC monitor: It's got: Analogue TV Tuner, HDMI, VGA...

    Paid Curiosity an interesting form of advertising

    I'm not saying you're not free to express yourself, I'm just saying, your first post is one suggesting we check out this advertising and that "Purchasing a box might be a good value, especially if the site catches some media attention" - things like this in the past are generally owned by the...

    Paid Curiosity an interesting form of advertising

    Haven't opened the link, considering this is your first post and you're suggesting people buy advertising space I think it's a lil dodgy or you're just here to promote this. Reported.

    Smoking Ban!

    Dude you should have a thread based on your decision to quit - I think it'd provide an insight into what it's like for us non-smokers, plus it'll give you a place to rant and express your feelings towards quitting and the days challenges :)

    Smoking Ban!

    I'm all for the smoking ban - I personally can put up with it in a pub though, it's part of the atmosphere, but it'll be nice not to have to deal with it soon :) My main hate of smoking is in restaurants - I find it totally disgusting that when a non-smoker (such as myself) is eating, we have...
