    best small first car to get?

    I guess you missed the part about wanting a "small car". I also fail to see how driving a Yaris makes you a poofta. Drop the ego mate. Models like the Yaris and Corolla are perfectly capable small A-to-B cars.

    anyone play drums?

    I've been playing on and off for about 8 years. I'd like to eventually get an electronic set when funds allow.

    Accidents, major OR minor

    Old woman didn't give way on a roundabout and hit me from the left. I was in a Pajero. Initial damage seemed minor, but the car later caught fire and exploded. Complete write-off. Wasn't my car, but I was told insurance paid out around ~25,000. That's the only accident I've had while I was the...

    Australian Open

    Fucking hell. Really wanted Federer to win. On the other hand, credit should be given to Nadal - that fit bloke played a good match.

    Photoshop & Photography.

    I'm a photographer so I don't use Photoshop for fancy graphic design work, although I'm fairly fluent with it with regards to post-processing photos.

    Australian Open

    Regarding the Mens Final tomorrow night, I've got a gut feeling Nadal is gonna take it out in an epic five-setter. I'm still hoping Federer wins though. Actually, I'm just happy Djokovic is out.

    The Beijing Olympics

    Re: Boycott of Olympics I honestly wouldn't even consider equating events like Cronulla to the cultural genocide that's happening in Tibet, nor the stolen generations since there has obviously been a process of reconcilitation occurring in the past few decades. I don't support...

    The Beijing Olympics

    Re: Boycott of Olympics Well, you'll always have people who are dead brainwashed like that, but to what extent? I seem to get the feel that many Westerners believe the Chinese population by large are ignorant of their government's record in areas such as human rights. That's not the case...

    The Beijing Olympics

    Re: Boycott of Olympics Hu Jintao isn't a well known name. Bush is. Bush-bashing in general, I'm quite aware of, believe me! But suppose the U.S. were holding the olympics this year - I hold high doubts that there would be many calls to boycott the event over actions like Iraq. Politics...

    The Beijing Olympics

    Re: Boycott of Olympics Where do I start? The whole boycotting of the Olympics deal to begin with. China isn't the only place where ethics often become questionable, you know? I'm pretty sure if the United States were to host the Olympics this year, there wouldn't be as much...

    what processor is better?

    Well for someone like yourself, a performance enthusiast (just like myself), Intel is certainly the way to go at the moment. I don't think anyone would deny that. I'm considering building another gaming rig soon, and honestly I'm not considering AMD at all. My point simply was that being...

    What do you think of Zimbabwe and its elections ???

    Zimbabwe is going great at the moment - who wouldn't be happy about an inflation rate of 100,000%.

    what processor is better?

    Right, I forgot the well-known fact that everyone overclocks right? :rolleyes: First it was all about the 'MANY MANY benchmarks' which supposedly demonstrates 'absolute demolishment' and now that has reduced down to just OCing for the mid-range, which is so far beyond the point for an average...

    The Beijing Olympics

    Re: Boycott of Olympics Obviously not you moron, and that evidently wasn't the point of my post. Right, the party is called the 'Communist Party of China'. By logical deduction, that must mean it's irrefutably communist. Yeah, OK. Seriously Slidey, do you think I'm some uninformed...

    Anyone into photography?

    Have you considered a dSLR? As for a 35mm, do you currently own any lenses?

    what processor is better?

    AMD by no means is competitive with Intel's current high-end offerings, but to dismiss them completely is unfair. Some of their current processors match up quite reasonably to Intel's mid-range Conroes. It depends on what you're after.
