  1. That's still 6 weeks after he took payment though. I wonder why he was PMing people. Sounds dodgy.
  2. Haha, I'm well jealous of that board, looks sweet. I did have to check those weren't girl binding though. They look quite... effeminate?
  3. You're right, the thickness won't matter. The pads adjust themselves for wear which will account for a slightly thicker disc. The diameter is anyone's guess - it depends what adapter you have for your bike. Probably 160 for XC though.
  4. Yes, it's brilliant for a free game. If you've got an Xbox360, download the geometry wars demo. So good. I might have to buy it now though - I've managed to finish the 4 minutes
  5. I fixed it But this is the code, if the youtube address is http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Qyy7okKow6w then this is the forum code: [youtube]Qyy7okKow6w[/youtube]
  6. Yes http://www.forbes.com/2008/03/05/buffett-w...fetrichest.html
  7. Keep on topic. If you want a fanboy argument about PS3 vs xbox, there are plenty of other places online for that sort of thing.
  8. That's because it's blatantly a photo and not a screenshot. From the sign-posts and general look of it, it's probably russia, right? So why is there a London (tube) map in the corner with loads of jaggies?
  9. It should be awesome. Gonna wait until after my exams to get it though Check out these ads: http://www.flickr.com/photos/rappzula/2432558416/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/kuniochi/2422923623/
  10. http://raptorsafari.com/play.php Not really a web game, but Track Mania Nations Forever is now a free download and it's well worth downloading. http://files.filefront.com/TrackMania+Nati...;/fileinfo.html
  11. Definitely at some point... But I need more practise first
  12. Same. Seen a couple go for £16-17 but I just went for BIN. Loving it so far, but as someone that's played nearly every Tony Hawk's game, it's a bit of a mind f**k. I keep releasing A and expecting to jump EDIT:
  13. I was going to say that you should be able to get a cheap graphics card for well under £20. That one, however, won't work, because it's PCI-e and I'm pretty sure you'll need AGP (or 'normal' PCI). Normal PCI cards are now rare so they're actually relatively expensive, as well as being rubbish and old. So don't get one of them. Something like this will be 20x faster than that thing you have in there at the moment http://microdirect.co.uk/(28735)ATi-Radeon...MB-AGP-OEM.aspx

    If the only upgrade is 3G, I'd happily buy one of the older ones.
  15. I just edited it without reading the topic, it was annoying me. But lol, I better change it back
  16. Anyone who says that a Monty hose splitter makes a difference is lying. And anyone who understands fluids and pressure systems (like those found in a brake) will tell you that there's no advantage at all using a splitter like that, it just makes the brakes harder to bleed. The only reason to get one is if you think they look better or you've got some weird-shaped frame and the cable routing will be better with it.
  17. 24" forks are the same as 26" forks. The difference (on some forks) is where the V-brake/magura mounts are. Lengthwise they're the same, and if you're using a disc, you can use any fork with a disc mount.

    Haha, that's well factory. Nice one. Not convinced on the new green Hope stuff though - the older, darker, green was better I reckon. Guess that's not totally your fault though.

    You will be able to use all the features, yes. The only thing is the data charges - on O2 you have unlimited data, but on Orange it's REALLY expensive (£8/30mb/month). So as long as you only get your emails/youtube etc via wifi it'll be fine, otherwise expect huge bills. When you swap to O2, you should be able to get the same tariff that you get with an iPhone (I.e. unlimited data for £35). I think you can probably simply do it via iTunes as if the phone was brand new - and it'll update the software and it will no longer be unlocked. I THINK. By the way, you can get a NEW 8Gb iPhone for £169 so don't pay more than that (unless it's 16Gb).
  20. Duh, get GTA. You know you can get 12 months XBL subscriptions off ebay for £26 instead of £40? I'll find the link. EDIT: This one is £29 for 13 months http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/INSTANT-Xbox-Live-12...1QQcmdZViewItem EDIT2: Maybe this one? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Xbox-360-Live-12-1-m...1QQcmdZViewItem
  21. Woo, add me: Fluid609 Haven't got many games on the go yet mind.
  22. If you don't want to play any games at all, you can easily cut back on the graphics card. Something like an ATI HD2400 is under £40 and it'll do HD decoding on board, taking load off the CPU, and being more efficient, whilst probably being quieter than a normal card like the one tomturd suggested. But it'll be rubbish for games, so them's the breaks. Oh, and definitely factor in a nice big screen
