woofmarkdog - I've tried being nice to you - but just FOOK off would you?


No irony, no sarcasm, no whimsy - just plain old "fook off and be a twonk somewhere else!"


ratty: a few choices at HMV


here


but I'm sure if you look around you will find others. The arcade model has the benefit of being a newer revision hardware with a much better reliability


the extra 120GB of the elite will only be useful if you download a LOT of films and install a LOT of games at the same time

I just picked up a brand spanking new Elite specifically for the release of Resi 5. If you go through Littlewoods Direct you can pick it up for 160quid(with an online voucher). The matt black finish looks pretty classy too and the oft reported noisy drive has been toned down to a dull roar now. Try it, you might like it.
Its a great entertainment platform but the hardware is unreliable, everybody I know who have had one for a couple of years have suffered the red ring of doom! I'm not saying I don't rate it because I do but Microdross have shot themselves in the foot. it may deter people from buying their next gen console I will certainly think twice about it.

Pretty much every xbox owner i know has had a RRoD, but only one more than once. Mine must be getting on for 4 years old now, still working fine, not bad for any piece of complex consumer electronics frankly.


Yeah it's noisy, but it's not terrible if you're playing a game with your surround sound on, but it's pretty useless as a dvd player. Elite is supposed to be quieter.


I've been a happy 360 owner (or should that be pwner?)

    • Walking around, it looks to me as if weedkiller has been used, as some weeds have been left in situ but are dead. However, most of the weeds which have been (apparently)  killed in this way are hardly likely to lift pavements, being things like Shepherd's Purse. They might seed around, but I'm not sure what harm that does. I would like to know exactly what is the remit of the council workers who are tasked with dealing with weeds in pavements (and in tree pits?). Things like dandelions which have taproots (but are hard to remove in one piece)  have been left in the pavement,  whereas things like Toadflax (which don't, and are easy to just pull out) have been removed.
    • Yet another recommendation for Casper the  handyman.   He recently completed some odd jobs around our house including installing curtain rails and hanging pictures.  He offered practical solutions to the issues that arose, was efficient and communicative.  Very reasonable rates. We’ll be using his services again and have recommended to family & friends. 
    • Tom is a legend, even though he supports Arsenal..
    • The seller hasn't been named on here, and it isn't clear that it was a genuine misunderstanding, given the contents of the OP. Maybe it should be left as a warning to others to try things out before you take them home. Or indeed before you sell them. If  something seems wrong, it probably is. It shouldn't have taken a public post to resolve things . Also, if the laptop actually belongs to a company, it wasn't the seller's to sell, regardless of how he obtained it.
