Oh no! Hope you are all okay.

😀😀😀 My wife gave me some grief when she saw my spend over Christmas.

New laptop is supposed to arrive today. Yay

Windows based, I hope?

They took my car away yesterday........she started up fine and purred away...From the inside, you'd never know anything happened! Such a waste............

@Red620Ti Is it a write off? I'll buy you a pint to help ease your burden in a couple of weeks

It is a write off.....

Now I need a new one! Loking at a cheeky Impreza estate, but I have to get it past the wife.

I hear classic VWs are the way to go. I am in no way biased in giving this view, honest.

I kind of agree with Hetty, but I would go more with Golf GTI or Skoda Octavia vRS.

I'd take an Impreza over a Golf any day. Then again I have diabetic seizures and am not allowed to drive (probably ever)... my choices are limited to a Vespa or motorized bicycle... neither of which would make it one block in Winterpeg.

Glad to hear that your family is OK Red! I've been in a few write-offs with family onboard. The first at age 12 when I had to take the wheel after my Dad had been attacked by a bear! I made it to the turn-off at the closest town and gunned it instead of braking, van goes over ditch, van goes into spiral, van lands on its hood in the ditch and does another rollover straight forward. I'm very grateful that no one was injured back then. How is your wife's whiplash?

Shes gone back to work, so shes feeling a bit better. Shes resisting my urges to go to one of these ambulance chasing scum sucking lawyer types you see on the telly, but my argument is she actually is injured, so she has a good case!

I think "dad attacked by bear" is a better story than "dozy old sod wasn't paying attention" anyway!

Happy Burns Night everybody. Lang may yer lums reek.

Can you guys help? I'm looking for a set of gaming headphones for max £50 to be used with my 360 and One. I've had turtle beach x12 recommended, any other suggestions? I know I'll probably need the One adapter thing too.

Yeah but if I could afford a nice Mac I wouldn't mind switching at all.

Cool, is the steel series turtle beach too?

facepalm Are you liking it? What did you choose btw, link me up. I'd make the point that if you could afford a nice anodized steel case (Mac), you could have also gone for a laptop that eats Apples for breakfast (The cost of feeding my Surfaces old iPods daily is getting out of hand).

I got this. Its fine, I guess. Does what I want from it.

I can see the appeal of a Mac, right now nearly everyone in my class has Macbooks and they're beatiful computers. That said Once I have the money I'll prpbably jump on either a Surface Pro or one of the higher end Ultrabooks. Mainly the Dell XPS 13, Acer S7, and the Thinkpads were the ones I was looking at the most.

That's a great price, I have a similar HP that works perfectly for almost anything but hardcore games (seriously, who does THAT on a non-console?)... I think I paid about 2.5x that price back when. You'll get the free upgrade to Win 10! Bonus.

Sitting in my ruby class and everything I try on my own sees to be on right path but doesn't work at all. Its so discouraging. Blah

I know is shouldn't expect to be an expert after a two week class,
