    OK. You have an specific overclock in mind?

    EDIT: Ah, yes. I have the 1366 version – just hits 4GHz. Freaking hot though – up to 88C in Prime 95 😯

    And what if it’s the uniform? Personally, I think uniform is pretty pathetic – but then the world turns on these shallow outward showings of power, or impracticality [see suits:

    “I’m soooo rich and important I don’t have to wear practical clothes that facilitate my life and hard manual work because I have lots of do$h and can pay plebs to do it for me”
    ]

    I hate dressing up. Really fracking hate it.

    Amusingly, it’s the uniform, along with the black engineers’ troos and black shoes.

    I, however, have been subverting it by wearing a pair of Wranglers all week [until today as mentioned], short sleeved shirts and Airwalks and yesterday the same pants for 2 days in a row by mistake.

    I have my own office FWIW, and I was told-off when I was busted sloping about in flip-flops 🙂

    What about flip-flops? I love wearing flip-flops in the office.

    yeah – it’s a short sleeved shi…..

    …rt.

    OKOKOK It’s a Polo shirt – does that mean I might get some then, or not?

    Oh well miss’stripes is clearly interested in my other features. Or perhaps she’s just high on my socks!

    You guys are weirding me out…..

    Srsly – the make/break of your attractiveness is a shirt? Oh, my sides!

    RE shirts – if worn only around an office, or perhaps for an evening out etc then I will hang it up for a few days and wear it again. I use Crystal Deodorant, don’t eat fast food and wash hard. My miss’stripes will tell me if I niff. She does, but it’s pretty rare 😉

    Aaah but what’s £300 in “new money”? More like 400 I’d say.

    What is this “ironing” business? Next you’re going to tell me you don’t dry your clothes on a bike like a normal person should?!

    Well now that’s an interesting one Mrs Toast – IIRC the first time we see Mal he’s taking a leak, then he pushes the loo up into the wall, rinses his hands with water for a second and splashes it on his face!

    gofasterstripes

    Sound advice – how much does he have to spend though?

    I think it will fit/work, it’s just lower spec than an i5. Should be fine though, if the rest of the machine isn’t crap. Do a wipe and clean install of Windoze to remove bloat. Be aware you may need to phone microsoft and explain what you’ve done if you just swap the CPU in a working machine, especially if you’ve changed other hardware.

    Download the manual for your mobo and see if it’s listed as compatible – there’s usually a more detailed section on that.

    Wasn’t it DrP that started a thread about whether he could be bothered to wash before bed once – he was covered in mud 😆

    LHS I’m surprised you didn’t run a mile when I said I wore my socks for a week 😉

    A friend of mine skied in a pair for a week – he could balance them vertically on his hand on the last morning when they came off the radiator!

    or

    New but expensive and not an i5. So – no.

    I’m a bit confused – or do you mean the amp had 4+ channels of
    amplification. That’s what I used, a 6-chan receiver, using 4 of them to bi-amp two speakers.

    If its in “long term storage”, in the fridge at about 40% charge. Do not allow to freeze or touch frost. Don’t run dead flat either. Store somewhere cool and dry if not the fridge, but allow to warm up to room temp before work.

    Have you tried doing it in Italian?

    FWIW I have seen a lot of cheap, failing, laptops after a year or two. I’d buy new and get a warranty; but that does mean more than £200 really.

    I think it’s here to stay, but it looks like the days of “making” BTC is over, unless you already have one of these:

    Here’s a relatively new article on it.

    You’d jolly well best not get searched with that on you, I’d wager!
