>>how about a rally driver, or heck even a police car driver on route to an incident?
those people are not driving at 300+ mph!

>>That aside, do you think a F1 driver 'deserves it' if he crashes and is killed

he knows the risks before he started. Whether he diserved it or not depends on the circumstances.

hammond on the otherhand, had to be a nutcase who gets his kicks by driving really really fast automobils. I have little, or no, sympathy for people like that. I feel more compasion for his surviving family who will have to spend the rest of their lives without him.

i cant say i agree with you on that one, not that i recomend people goand build jet cars and do the same, but most people wouldnt turn down the chance of driving one if the right precautions were in place, even then as we can see accidents can still happen,

"It is a very hard time for both me and my wife. We are just hoping that Richard pulls through. At the moment we are not sure if he is going to live or die. His children are very confused," he told the Evening Standard.

turns out they reckon it was more like 315mph, has anyone else heard the rumors that the beeb wants to axe top gear? im only really asking as a couple of people were mentioning it on a blog i was looking at yesterday, hopefully he makes a fast and full recovery and gets back to what he's good at - pushing fast cars to their limit & trashing caravans.

bbc's top gears richard hammond is reported to have been involved in a serious crash earlier this evening, at around 280mph, in the `vampire car` capable of over 300mph its powered by a rolls royce engine. lets hope the hamster is ok and that the beeb dont use it as an excuse to cut top gear!

Yes. The only benefit that PRO offers (to my knowledge) are faster downloads.

Illegal only if he was downloading something copyrighted.

having used limewire pro (aquired from some nice sharers on limewire) i've noticed that it allows you to have more download sources rather than limewires limit of 10, this makes it very fast indeed.

cool,i' ll have to keep an eye on it

I just got a new gmail account, so I have plenty of invites left. Btw, I recently stumbled on this website: www.shnoop.com
They seem to have some good deals. Has anyone bought anything from them before? I'm curious, before I actually make a purchase.

Thanx

no but just had a quick look at shnoop, do they offer one product a day then?

i personally prefer ebuyer, usually cheaper although you would struggle to beat dell's easy to use site, www.ebuyer.co.uk

wireless is very handy, but your unlikely to get the sames speeds as you would over ethernet, howver a wireless lan adaptor 802.11g/b should be fine, try and find out what standard the hotel uses, as you'll almost always be better off getting an adaptor from a similar range, as in netgear rangemax router + netgear rangemax wlan adaptor.

.tv wasnt to bad, vagely remember it though, would be nice to have something between channel 5's gadget show and top gear though.

although norton hasnt got that many followers i am a fan of it, especially its easy to use interface, i've just registered with `club symantec` in order to beta test the 2007 version, its only on a 30 day trial unfortunatly but first impressions are good, its got a nice smooth appearence with some new slick features, one i particually like is the extra options you'll get when running a full system scan, installation was much easier, but it overal seems to be slower than
the 2006 version, however this may not apply to the final and shipped version.

london would be nice as well as easy to get to, with good rail and air links etc

You answered 95% of questions correctly. Here's your rating:

0-20%: Maybe you're still thinking too much about the Old Country -- and that's where you should probably be.

25-40%: Mmmm. Do you really want to be a citizen? This kind of performance isn't going to impress those nice immigration folks.

45-60%: Not too bad, but you really need to break out the civics books again -- word is, the INS is looking for an 80 percent score.

65-80%: Hey, you may make a good citizen yet! Look at your wrong answers and a little revision should do the trick.

85-100%: Welcome to the United States! (And, truth be told, you know more about this great land than most Americans.)

wow you guys have should awsome connections, there inst much choice here, you either have a slow but unlimited connection or fast but capped connection, with all the customer service guys saying the same thing when you get a problem "mr darren it is modem...." lol

Basically it uses a motor to charge your tooth bush when its in the dock a magnet inside the dock causes the coil to spin inside the bush which in turn charges the battery.

Its just using a more advanced version of that experiment with the copper coil and a magnet that you do in highschool electronics class

cheers mate!!! :cheesy: still very impressed even if it does now have its insides outside :lol:

even still, what a legend! he had so much passion for what he did, and his poor kids, one day his wife will have the hard task of explaining to them what happened, as he was filming at the time - someone somewhere must have it on tape, not that im some kind of sicko, it would end and awful lot of rumors about how and what happened.

hi guys,

we have the top sky package so we can supposedly get sky via broadband as well, i have the setup files on my laptop, when i first tried to install it said windows media player was to old (had mp11 beta 2?) it recomended mp10, so got that, now when i try to install cant get passed the first screen, as the `next` button doesnt seem to do anything, anyone else had this prob and how did you sort it?

thanks, darren
