Looking for the cheapest gaming computer... ecollegepc.com??
I would not buy a machine from a place like that, simply because most student computer companies are there to capitalise on students not knowing where to get one from. Without having looked at it I'd guess that it's either overpriced or made using budget parts.

Earth really is pathetically small...
There are likely thousands of galaxies in that image, each containing thousands, if not millions of planets... And yet some people say extra-terrestrial life doesn't/can't exist. And yet some people think that all of this was created for us.

Thoughts on Punk vs. Emo Music
By the way, I like REAL punk and everyone else likes wannabe/poser punk.

Stolen cell phone :(
I doubt young Johnny Chavpants knows.

Stolen cell phone :(
I think what you're talking about is blocking the IMEI number, Matt. In which case yes, it can stop it being usable. However, if the thief has passed it on to someone who specifically deals in phone crime I think it is possible to change the IMEI, though perhaps difficult.

Show us this evidence then. I don't have an opinion on which it is, but I don't like it when people claim things like that without showing proof.

At what age does it become inappropriate?
I often pull stupid faces or stick my tongue out at kids who show interest in me and I've not had such an experience. I think you just happened upon a mum who is a bit of a sourpuss.

Blocking Ebay
That means... - Open C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts in notepad (it doesn't have a file extension) - Scroll to the bottom and add: 127.0.0.1 www.ebay.com ...or whatever the ebay URL is for where you are. - Save, close, test.

Cocaine. It comes from the coca leaf. Find a coca leaf where it naturally occurs in Columbia, chew it and congratulations - you're high on cocaine - THE DRUG. How is that not natural? It hasn't been synthesised in any way. You have eaten a plant that has been growing for at least thousands of years, unaided by man and it has altered your state of mind. Marijuana. It comes from the cannabis plant. Find a cannabis plant where it naturally occurs in the mountains north of the Himalayas and chew on it. Congratulations - you're high on marijuana. How is that not natural? It hasn't been synthesised in any way. You have eaten a plant that has been growing for at least thousands of years, unaided by man and it has altered your state of mind. Opium. It comes from the opium poppy. Find an unripe seed pod where they naturally occur in the mediterranean and chew on it. Congratulations - you're high on opium. How is that not natural? It hasn't been synthesised in any way. You have eaten a plant that has been growing for at least thousands of years, unaided by man and it has altered your state of mind. They are natural. Natural does not necessarily equal good, but they are natural.

Import\Tuner Cars
My Tech Studies said that Shame it's wrong. I think you're thinking of energy, in place of electricity. Electricity can be wasted in such a car, it can be converted to heat instead of kinetic energy.

If it's a fact then you won't have any trouble showing me some proof, will you? :roll: Proof that it wasn't: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v3 ... a0_fs.html http://evolve.zoo.ox.ac.uk/papers/Lemey ... al%20(2004)%20Genetics.pdf - stupid URL isn't parsing. It is ignorant attitudes like yours that promote hate and bigotry. Fact.

You've got to love mass produced products!
So it is Lenovo branded Lenovo products - not what I said I'd buy. It's all academic really because I wouldn't buy a premade machine anyway.

You've got to love mass produced products!
I'm pretty sure it's the other way round; on the IBM site they offer Lenovo branded things. They're the same products as when they were IBM branded.

Import\Tuner Cars
Back on topic then, we don't have 'imports' here in the UK because pretty much everything is an import. If I were to go with one country's cars it would be Germany, I like the style, I like the reliability and I like the general idiom. Other than that I've always loved the look of muscle cars, particularly the Dodge Charger, Plymouth Barracuda and Chevrolet Camaro. I'd never drive one because of course the wheel is on the wrong side for me and I imagine they'd be very uncomfortable. If I came into ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã35,000 I'd be getting either an Audi A3 3.2l Quattro or a BMW 1 series M Sport. If I came into over ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã100,000 I'd get either an Audi S8 or a Mercedes S65 AMG.

That would be you making an outlandish claim which I challenged you on. So you admit you have no grounds for saying that it will do it in that time?

Import\Tuner Cars
Are you claiming that yours will be the first in the entire world to do that? That you alone will be able to construct the best tuned supra in the world? That no one will have already done a better job, or tuned one that will be able to do it that fast already? Tell me HOW you arrived at the assumption that it will do it in under 1.5s. Wow, you cite a car that I mentioned in one of my posts earlier? Plus that car isn't in production. Small, light car with 1005bhp does 0-60 in 1.67 (claimed) and you think a heavy car with 850-900bhp will do it in less?

Import\Tuner Cars
You said 'just over' a second. That means it is close to 1 second. Closer to 1 second than 2 seconds or it would be 'just under' 2 seconds. Not any car, the supra that you claimed you'll get. You said that you'll enjoy the knowledge of having a car that will do 0-60 in just over a second, or words to that effect.
-
You've got to love mass produced products!
Kind of deviated from the topic, but if I was going to buy a pre-made machine from ANYONE it would be IBM. One of the very few companies I actually trust, alongside another which I will post in a while because it has slipped my mind.

Evidence for the car doing 0-60 in <1.5s please.

Import\Tuner Cars
Well several folks on this forum who know me can verify that I am an adult, don't live with my parents, have my own car (no, I don't 'tune' it) and my own fiancee whom I live with :) Did you start to question my age because there is no evidence that such a car could do 0-60 in <1.5 seconds? That's what it looks like.

Aren't eMachines the ones who put second-hand parts in their machines?

Import\Tuner Cars
I just find this funny, a teenager who can't even drive spouting about cars as though he's been in 'the business' many years. As has been said before in this thread, I think someone's been playing a little too much Need for Speed. By the way, I'm still waiting for a shred of evidence that a supra could do 0-60 in under 1.5 seconds.

Import\Tuner Cars
So you're not old enough to drive, you don't own a car, you're not old enough to be working full time being a so called 'tuner', yet you expect people to take you seriously when you say your car will do 0-60 in just over a second? What's more, that Saleen S7 weighs 250kg less than the Supra. I challenge you to provide one shred of evidence that the car you propose would do 0-60 in <1.5s actually could.
