Re: Terminally ill laptop

Better still ditch the laptop and get an iPad......you'll never look back and wondered why you clung onto the laptop so long. :) Those fan thingummies remind me of the sunhats you get with integrated fans...oh dear :roll: :lol: http://cometvip.en.made-in-china.com/product/LesJGVyxABWj/China-Solar-Po...

Re: What are you reading at the moment?

I cannot get to grips with the kindle at all, I also have books on my iPad but somehow they lack the feel, smell and sensual pleasure I get from handling a book.

Re: Post any problems with the Forum in here please.

Now I've gone on to the regular view it's great no problems at all, except the usual problem, that is not being able to copy photos from my iPad over to the forum in any way shape or form, but that is an iPad problem methinks and nothing to do with the forum. I'm sure if I was to do it on my laptop ...

And exactly WHAT does that have to do with the content of the article morgita? :roll: Seems that even when they confess it in public no one does anything!

Syria....an earthquake to come?

With president Assad holding on tight and forecasting dire consequences to follow any intervention ....will it cause an earthquake in the area, with aftershocks felt far and wide?
