  1. No one I know at Status-X would report your uploads. The whole point of Status-X is to have a place where we can freely give links to whatever we want. Reporting those links to get them taken down is stupid. Like I said, no one I know there would do that. I don't know everyone there.
  2. Where do you keep finding these obscure things Fu?
  3. Yeah, that's where I've been reading some reviews. They recomend the Samsung P3 over the Zune, and Sony X-1000. I'm just worried about audio skipping while I look through playlists with around 300 songs.
  4. Overkill for work. I don't own one so I'd have to buy one, and if I'm gonna buy a laptop I'd want a good one, which would be expensive, and then I wouldn't want to take it to work. If I had a gun to my head and my only choice was Zune or ipod I'd choose Zune. It looks better than the ipod in a number of ways, but it's the software that really puts me off. I can always avoid the marketplace and stuff, but in the reviews I've seen they all say you HAVE to install and use the software package, and set up a marketplace acount, or you can't use the Zune. Is this completely true? Can it not just be recognised by your PC as a mass storage device and have files copied to it? That's what I like. Having to install software on your PC just to get music onto a device would be incredibly annoying to me.
  5. I predict..... dissapointingly small roster.
  6. Sure, you can these days for the most part, but that doesn't undo their evil, and I still won't shell out over £200 for one.
  7. You have all now been raped. I was looking at the Zune HD, and was impressed, but unfortunately it's the same as ipod as to why I won't buy one. Their 'marketplace' is itunes all over again. 'You will buy all your music from us or die. With Microsoft Points. And you must use our shitty software' Don't think so. I've never payed for an mp3 in my life, and I like nothing better than dragging and dropping files in Windows Explorer, I hate all kinds of sync software. Then there's it's restrictions in file formats and it's price tag. As for ipod, I won't buy anything Apple, ever. Their policy of restricting users in various ways over the years has always appalled me. I will never line their pockets by buying any of their products. Besides, my sister has an ipod touch, and she tells me the battery life is crap. I'm going to need long battery life. Whatever player I go for will be used at least five hours a night, and I don't want to be recharging every five minutes. Plus, ipods are too expensive too. The Samsung P3 has good reviews, and isn't too expensive, but I'm concerned about it's redraw rate when loading large playlists. A small amount of lag isn't the end of the world, but if it makes the sound skip, it's no good, and if it takes more than 30 seconds to load a playlist, it's no good too.
  8. I need an MP3 player. Part of my job as compare involves playing background music for the bar I work in. At the moment all I have is a crappy CD player and a shitty selection of CDs to work with. To improve things I've bought a 3.5mm jack to phono lead so I can plug an MP3 player into the bar's sound system. But I need a good MP3 player to use. At the moment all I have is a borrowed Creative Zen Mosiac, which I've just found out is pretty shit. It's the 8GB version and is about half full. I made a playlist with a few hundred tracks, and it took about five minutes to display the list when I selected it. I've also found that if a track is playing, it will skip whenever you use the menu to do something. It basically doesn't have enougth memory to be able to play music and operate the menu at the same time, which is precisely what I need to be able to do. So what I need is an MP3 player that can handle having litterally thousands of songs on it, and be able to scroll through them and load big playlists quickly, without lag, or skipping or anything. Any ideas? It has to be at least 16GB I reckon, maybe more, sound good, and be fast and reliable. It of course needs to have a screen and support playlists, filters etc. BTW, anyone who says Ipod will be raped.
  9. Well I guess that kind of situation is why there are all these NVQ courses about nowadays. You can start right from level 1 which is the equivalent of a GCSE and go all the way to level 8 which is equivalent of a PHD, in whatever subject you want to do. I'm even doing an NVQ right now myself in IT. The Jobcentre put me forward for it coz I said I'm good with computers. It's only one day a week, I do it on my day off from work.
  10. The menu in Evox can be organised however you want it. It's all done in the ini file. It's been ages since I've touched mine too, but there are old tutorials available in English, try at Xbox-Scene. You don't need to be a programmer at all, you just need to know the valid values that can be used.
  11. Hotdog Storm was always broken in FBA-XXX Pro. There was never a way to fix it.
  12. Not sure what we're getting at in this thread, but I have an honours degree.
  13. It's not that big really, neither's my house. The building may look big but it's a semi-detached, so of course I only live in half of it. The right side with the redwood door is my house. The school opposite is where I went to school as a child. You can see the sea if you look out of the window in my loft, but it's quite far away.
  14. Holy shit they actually came to my town. My house: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?f=q&sour...170.55,,0,-2.61 Look at the guy walking past, his legs have been cut off.
  15. Is that Galaxy 105? I've never heard that segment before.
  16. What version of SimCity is that? Regular 3000/World Edition or SimCity 4?
  17. That's Jon Talbain. You're talking about Darkstalkers. I guarantee it.
  18. I used google street view a couple of times to find out where I was going in Leeds. Next time I'll look out for Emsley wandering around.
  19. That's the only one I've not seen in that clip then. Had no idea he was in that.
  20. What's the one at 8.29? Where he has that long hair?
