Hi guys, Havn't read the whole post so dunno if you've discussed this but.. Whilst I was waiting for all the top games to come out on the x360 I got hold of Metroid Prime Corruption for the Wii and I must say it's one of the best FPS's I've ever played! The motion controls work really well and the whole mix of puzzles and shooting works really well. The biggest surprise is that it looks awesonme as well. I was used to crappy graphics on all my Wii games. If you ain't tried it its worth getting hold of. btw Sean if you've got the orange box you should go straight for Portal it's the best part of the whole package.
I read somewhere that the average lifespan of a city fox is only 1-2 years. So i wouldn't worry bout it that cub was a gonna anyway. They keep getting run over.
It's not just setpal. The guys who run the network upgraded it over the weekend and some older boxes were borked. see freeview site http://www.freeview.co.uk/features/transmission
Sniper at canary wharf on 07/07 was a good one. There's also muppet at work who beleives that drinking a cold drink after eating makes all the food solidify in your stomach and thus cannot be digested. Dunno where he thinks it all goes then. I'm always the boring one sending out links to snopes at work due to the various urban myth related emails.
Asset - bring up task manager, click on the processes tab, then sort by CPU then post back here what is taking up the most CPU cycles (ignore system idle). My moneys on mcafee causing your slowness anyone else wanna join the sweepstake?
We bought our house through them and they were fine, however I have rented through them in the past and they were poo. Dunno what that proves other than the quality depends on who serves you that day i guess.
My Dad lives in essex so I can't check at the mo but he hasn't complained about any black lines yet. However if you look at the specification page on the panasonic website http://www.panasonic.co.uk/plasma-tv/th-42px70wall/index.htm it says; "Aspect Controls Auto/16:9/14:9/4:3/Zoom1/Zoom2/Zoom3" so 16:9 is specifically stated. When I advised my dad to get that telly he went to have a look at it in currys where the salesman told him that Plasma's needed "topping up" every 2 months, that if you tipped them up all the Plasma would fall out and that LCD's are better!!!!! So don't beleive anything they tell you.
My dad just bought this telly and its an awesome bit of kit and is both flat and wide (dunno who told you otherwise). He watches mainly SD content and it looks just as good on this as his old crt. You won't be disapointed if you buy it. Also use this site to find the cheapest prices. http://www.plasma-tv-prices.co.uk/Panasonic/compare-prices.html
