yeah been thinking about that 1. Is it particulary good.

When I was away at uni, our cd rom broke and my parents took the pc world to get fixed. Well this is what happened.

Monkeys at pc world put some sort of stupid blue sticker on our screen that fucked that up. So the pc was taken back a sceond time....still no cd rom fixed. Whilst pc was there they said there would be a good chance all our files would be wiped....WTF!!!!! Got pc back a second time to discover cd rom still fucked up, but thankfully files still there.
They said sorry and gave my parents shitty norton 360 at half price. ARSEHOLES!!!

anyhow pc cd rom is fixed now- engineer came out, but it runs at half the speed as before.

Moral of the story, do not trust pc world EVER. They never even defragged the pc or anything whilst the pc was there, and that is something that was meant to be done. I want to know what the fuck they were doing all the time it was there. Creativly thinking up ways to fuck it up even more.

ok cheers for the recommendation

lol.  How many times have you bit the ban stick because you are unable to search?  Just curious.  Seriously, if you looked on this page, there is a whole entire thread with the exact same title.

PC world suck so hard, their lan cables are like £20 for 2 metres.

The whole company is a rip-off but it's the only shop that sells stuff like that.

The idea of any hi-fi system is to reproduce the source material as faithfully as possible, and to deliberately add distortion to everything you hear (due to amplifier deficiencies) because it sounds 'nice' is simply not high fidelity. If that is what you want to hear then there is no problem with that, but by adding so much additional material (by way of harmonics and intermodulation) you have a tailored sound system, not a hi-fi. - Rod Elliot, ESP

If it's using so much bandwidth/computer power that you can't stream, it isn't a good thing. If it doesn't let you open the ports neccesary for streaming, it isn't a good thing. If you have to turn it off to do anything but test what a certain virus does, it isn't a good thing.
