  1. It's got a lot to do with clever viral marketing. How many other ads are you talking about at the moment?
  2. Shame about the rest... Michael Bay sucks for anything that doesn't involve explosions, IMHO of course There's some trailers out for Transformers II, the bad guy is huge!
  3. Can't wait till this comes out. Off to see the New Terminator tomorrow, woohoo!
  4. It cracked me up. I thought it was a music video at first - for some reason it reminds me of the Windowlicker video by Aphex Twin!
  5. I have two 300W Sera heaters in my 440 L, it's stable at 25.5.
  6. I tried to establish MTS in my tank, but the dwarf chain loaches put paid to that...
  7. That won't help if your PC gets nicked, burned in a fire, or the hard drive gets bitter and twisted... It'll stop Windoze grinding to a halt when you fill up C drive, though It's also good practice to have a separate partition for your swap file - stops it getting fragmented.
  8. Yep, you've gotta have a backup. Best idea is a portable hard disk. Store it off site if you can. Then if your PC gets stolen, or your house burns down, you've still got all your data. Ditto for if your PC's hard drive bites the big one.
  9. Ubuntu FTW! Avast ha slightly better detection rates, and a slightly smaller footprint, too. Someone at work thought they were getting burgled at 3 in the morning. Turns out they'd left the laptop plugged into the stereo after watching a movie on loud, and it was the annoying American voice that Avast uses to announce "Virus database has been updated"
  10. Didya see my thread? viewtopic.php?f=3&t=38370 I'm still sorting out the shipping method with Wateranywhere, do you want to halve the shipping and order one, too?
  11. I had one in the small, overstocked 80 l community tank that I inherited when I got started. It ruled the tank, but wasn't too bad. When I transferred the community to my 450 L tank, it started nipping anything that came into it's side of the tank. I tried putting it back into the 80 for a bit, and then reintroducing it once the other fish were established, but it just got more and more aggro. I donated it to the LFS in the end. Shame really, as they are beautiful fish.
  12. http://www.3news.co.nz/News/BusinessNew ... fault.aspx Hmmm, just got back from town, bit hungry... *goes to look for plec tabs*
  13. It was. Labour released a kit that was sent to every school - it had a animated cartoon dog showing kids how to behave with dogs. National just axed the program to save $ 1 million :evil: Seems like money well spent to me, if it prevents another kid getting her face ripped apart
