I might give this a go on one of my lap tops, I recently got an old EEE PC of flea bay for £47 now loaded up with ubuntu its amazing how usable it is even with a 7" (no giggling at the back please) screen. Since I have friends in the IT department at work I can now access the tinternet at work as required without the powers that be be able to see what I'm looking at.

I've always used Windows but its a bloater compared to some of these new slimmed down OS's, all my data is on external back drives anyhow so if the OS goes belly up I don't lose anything and I never use laptops for storage, so I've got nothing to lose.

Kate: It does take a bit of getting used to at first but after a few goes with a proper OS you wonder how you ever coped with MS shite for so long. It's been quite the culture shock having to get used to W7 and its unbelievable crappiness. I'm sure MS must employ specialists in making everything as annoying, confusing and user-unfriendly as possible :|

OK :| I'm now totally :? Give me some GIRL benefits? Does it come with a make-up mirror and sparkly colours?...no don't bother. You've both now answered my question :D

Morning Brimz.
 
Kate, it actually does come with sparkly stuff and bright colours. Extremely customisable - can make anything and everything as sparkly, patterny, colourey and animatedy as you so desire. I spend hours setting mine up all whizzy and whooshy usually. Girly? Moi? :o

Other main benefit is that it just does everything any other OS does better. Why not just play around with Felix' to see if you get on with it? Or pick whichever one you fancy (Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, whatever) and run it on your lappy without installing it for a bit. Cos it can run off CD without needing to be installed you can play the field first and see if it suits.
 
Hi Kate n everyone .

I got me self a new laptop yesterday it's very rare for me to spend a large amount of cash on anything other than drugs and travelling .
I also have booked up with BT to get a Broadband connection in my new place .
It all feels very weird thing is i've spent 100s of thousands on my Hard Drug Habit over the last couple of decades and because of that me and money have a very odd relationship.

I'm not materialistic at all & always get great pleasure in finding bargains usually in charity shops or similar .

So to spend nearly £500 in one day on material stuff is very unusual for me and the mad bit considering the 100s of thousands spent on drugs i 'm finding it hard to justify.

Does anyone else get what i'm saying ?
 
I can't remember the last time I spent more than say, £100-£200 on anything other than drugs. Come to think of it, I'm struggling to think of an example even within that range.

I need to do the new computer thing too, but I really have difficulty committing to anything which might affect the stability of my routine, and unfortunately that routine includes the kind of drug expenses that prevent me from being much use when it comes to saving.

To tell the truth I don't really feel I'm missing out on much.
 
I've not spent hundreds of thousands on drugs, but I have been through extended periods of having pretty much no money and getting dough again after that made me really anxious. Spending it on anything substantial made me want to throw up.

Simplest explanation of ubuntu I can think of, it's the tits.
 
I have recently spent £££'s on roof repairs and car exhausts. If the washing machine goes I'll be raging.

It's looking lovely outside - why are we all sitting indoors at the keyboards? We should arrange an eadd picnic out. Somewhere with free wifi

Morning Jancrow appreciate the "tits" comment xxx
 
I didn't spend £500 on a puter couldn't justify that what with my basic skills i don't think i would get the most from it .

i paid my Bt Line rental as one off year in advance at £120 rather than paying £13.90 a month thus saving me a fair bit .

This is the first new computer i've ever had.THe closest was a nearly new eee PC that has served me well for3 years n been all over Europe &continue to be my faithful travel companion .
 
Cars are the worst for eating money, not sure why I even have oine, £1000+ am year for insurance, £280 a year for tax, just had my MOT done, needed 2 new wheels and ABS was fucked, £550... why. I want a fucking scooter
 
'Puter is also the most expensive thing I've ever bought. Not this whizzy new lappy though - me sugar daddy bought it for me. True story. And neither as pervy or as intriguing a thing as it may sound. Was over £300 and probably the bestest prezzy ever. I did pay for me old PC though - 'bout £200 or so from memory and definitely the most I've ever spent on any single item.

Kate: Picnic sounds like win. Lovely and sunny here and tummy is a lil grumbly. May end up just being a wander to the Co-Op to buy summat for lunch rather than a full-blown picnic but in my mind I'll be sat on a blanket somewhere nice with a pork pie.
 
I find an odd satisfaction dropping £100+ on technology, as you know its gonna last quite a while, compared to drugs which just get smoked up or eaten in a few days/months; no matter how good they are.

Recently bought USBjs, a mini mixing desk, new speakers, headphones and a MIDI keyboard. Now I might actually be able to make something that sounds passable.
 
If you're a geek addict every pound is worth it :) gotta have yer daily virtual hit!

You've got to have Scotch eggs too.. of course :D I'll bring goodies wrapped in tin foil, the foil is always useful ;) *looks out sun hat*
 
No eggs for me, Kate. Ick. I'll just stick with the Scotch and tinfoil if ya don't mind ;)

Wish the sky would make up its mind and settle on either sunshine or drizzle before I decide whether or not to wander on a shopwalk... and just as I typed that sentence the sun is blazing again and it looks like it's drizzle-free. Woot - picnic time may be approaching :)
 
That is a very good point. I smoked it for the first time at 3AM this morning. I was already on a mixture of ethylphenidate, etaqualone and 3-meo-PCP but it just obliterated EVERYTHING. Like god called time out. One moment I was sat in the livingroom, the next moment...sat in the same livingroom...But in a heavenly dimension. Then Philip Glass was played and I just vibrated with etheral energy...ahhh. No other drug has required a deep philosophical conversation immediately afterward to get my head round the consequences of such an experience on one's beliefs on the purpose of life.

Just so fucking wonderful. Enlightenment incarnate. Or possibly pretension incarnate. But it doesn't matter.
 
Heh well I have to say, a surprisingly wholesome combination of amt and methoxetamine caused me to feel the exact same nirvanic vibrations whilst in the metaphorical hole. It makes me, uh, sing, a very strange, discordant note. More like a vocal inhalation/exhalation of air. It's like a reflex I get when I feel it. Sounds like an exorcism but feels like what Christian's hark on about when they mention the Second Coming.
 
If the 'meteor' was covered in broken lighters with a limply held vaporiser in one hand, then by god I do believe I morphed into a natural phenomenon =D So sorry if I hit anyone. Twas only wanting to share the love.
