Personally I’d skip the repairs, just try to boot from anything else you can (windows DVD, Linux boot DVD/USB) and see if you can just copy any files off it.

Start with the most valuable files.

Try a file search by content. Search for an address or a name you remember in the favorite’s list.

Open the file in notepad, or perhaps you can add the file in IE?

If the drive has not yet been indexed it may take a while.

(Advice for posterity)

Good work, Cougar.

Anyone running them on Magura Louise BAT (etc)?

Maxxis could just donate some money without a babe calendar…

bash.org might kill an hour or two

😯

The links in the article go to pages that are now offline. I suspect Maxxis have pulled the product.

What?

Oh come on, he’s a big softie 🙂

Got back to p17 and got bored.

BinBins, if you want I can hook you up with a Marine Biologist, well Marine Conversationist. She is very smart indeed and may be able to tell your daughter some useful things 🙂

Greetings from the land of no hills.

I am not reading 21 pages to check if I’m the first, but : Drink Coke.

Thanks Bill, you prophet.

What he said ^

Really, with all that jumping about on them?

Option B, if they’re into electronics like I was at that age is some really basic but quality secondhand seperates.

You could pick something like a Rotel 930AX, a NAD 3020 and a set of classic B+W DM110’s all up for the same money, I bet.

Whack a line in jack and youve covered all the bases while also letting them learn a bit about the gear, stimulating the interest in electronics (wire it all up together) and I bet it will make a Bluetooth speaker sound like a fart in a can…

Bonus-each part can be replaced if damaged.

I think these days Intel chips will just throttle,they’re pretty indestructible.

Eventually an overheating laptop will fail from all the trapped heat. Especially if you carry it around- motherboard solder.

Sorry, late to the party, but did he call for a Q’urantine?

If you can bypass your vacuum cleaner nozzle, set that open a bit and wriggle the end over the intake(s).

Turn it off first.

Or a Remix…

Remix Mini review: A $70 Android desktop PC

Real Dutch brands are Gazelle, Sparta and ?Union? (Might not be Dutch, soz)

Suited to flat terrain. Probably able to carry a friend on the rack. Won’t break down. Very very heavy.

You pays your money…..

Also, like with a lot of the Infocom stuff, you need knowledge of what’s in the game box to pass certain areas of the game (a map of the tunnels for one thing).

That’s what I call copy protection (not that it would work now).

I had a copy 😆

The screws that hold the office chair together…. *sigh**

Dammit, there’s so much Amiga around right now I am near to buying one… The Ars Technica history articles are worth a read.

I was stuck on the “Hold monster” level of Dead Space for a year, eventually killed it (you can’t change the difficulty without starting a new game).

Never did complete Leapin’ Louis on the C16, nor Leather Goddesses. At the current rate I will finish The Witcher by 2017.

Eeer… What’s a freelancer to do?

I thought most of the point was to have a browser and fast hardware to handle the code. That, and translate, does me.

Oh… VLC

Pass the eye bleach!

Microsoft, d’uh.

Ride on, dude 🙂

😯

Did the other frames break because the seatpost snapped it??

You could do beer with hint of smeg.

Best served with Scampi crisps, presumably.

Those Tannoys look very good at that price…

Page 2? Like smoking something out of the ashtray!

Oh come on….

Tatty rag, that.

Print anything….

Douglas Adams had something to say about MK’s playing.

Keepass was recommended to me by my tame hacker.

Which reminds, me, I really should find out which institution he’s in now…

Hi James. Sam here, send my regards to Adrian. My email’s in my profile, I’d love to catch up with him.
