    Spell-checking.

    I'm on the hunt for a free spell checking program. My options are either a small program I can have running in the dock, that I can paste text into, have it checked, then copy out and paste where-ever. The other option is a global spell checking type deal, that would check my spelling within...

    iBook - Pre-purchasing questions

    I’m currently in line for buying an iBook – at least I’d like to – when I’m in Florida. I’m curious, however, to the following things before I fork out ~£1000 for it. 1. I’d want a RAM and Hard Drive upgraded straight away, and the Bluetooth module added. Can they do this in store, and will...

    Alternatives to landline broadband?

    I.e. - What are they? I’ve just moved to the middle of the country, and have been told, after a month of various BT technicians inspecting the line in our house and the line from the exchange, that the signal is too weak to carry broadband (and can barely carry voice calls), so I’m wondering...

    iPod Trouble

    Not sure if you guys'll be able to help, but the iPodLounge forum refuses to let me post for some bizarre reason, so here it is: My iPods been playing up. I didn’t have a firewire port, so I bought the USB cable and I’ve been using that. When my pay came in, I bought a firewire control...

    THE ICE CREAM THREAD, Do your duty!

    I was reading the paper the other day, and they had published the annual figures for the number of litres of Ice Cream the average person in each country eats every year. Sadly, I've misplaced the article, but what I do recall was the UK being at an embarrassingly low 8ltrs per year, with the...

    AGP Drivers - Error

    I am not entirely sure what agp drivers are, since I've never been asked about them before and took them for granted, but my computer is barking at me to update or install some because the previous lot are either out of date or non-exsistant. Where do I download them? I know I'm running a...
