I'm thinking of whether to buy another desktop or to just get a laptop. I don't think there's much room in the house for another PC so I'd probably want a Lappy. It will mainly be used for browsing, but depending on budget I can probably go for gaming too. So guys, can you recommend good...

This is where the problem begins, when i looked up how to boot into the recovery partition i followed and did...

Rather annoyed by the updates and price hike. Seems they've put i5s in the 15" and i7s in the 17,. even then it's not proper i5/i7's as its dual core. Also the screen options, an additional £90 if you want a resolution of 1680x1050 on the 15". Don't think so. I think I'll be picking up the...

For a while now (well ever since I saw the competition) I've been going off Windows Mobile, not because the OS is inherently bad, but purely because of usability and support issues I've come across in my day to day life. Recent news from Microsoft is that the current platform, its looks, its...
