  1. haha lol

    I recommend http://customise.org/ you'll see some great displays of wallpapers and add-ons that people are using.

    Rainmeter is quite popular but is that windows only? There was a post in forums about setting up linux from scratch and that has some nice add-ons in it Perfect Ubuntu set up

    Personally I run a conky for my linux lappie and a G15 with the addons I want for my desktop, although the G15 app switching is annoying at times I thought there was some sort of priority event system so apps come to the front but it never works

  2. I'm confused. You have to come up with a distributed project idea other wise you will be using CORBA (a system for communications between platforms and languages)?

    Sorry I just have to write a report on a 10 page distributed system or a certain part of a distributed system i.e CORBA

    so I'm just looking for some ideas or anything you guys have heard that is interesting. ATM I'm really looking at Amazon (wow spelt that Amazong twice now) EC2 systems

  3. So my lecture says I have tonight to come up with an idea for a Distributed system project or I will be working on CORBA which is just one small part of some distributed systems and I was working away until just now I saw Darren posting on twitter about "GPU password cracking in the cloud" So I decided to see if anyone in the forums had any nice interesting ideas.

    Unfortunately my lecturer really didn't point me in any certain direction

    He mentioned these but they have already been assigned to other students

    Mosix, Inferno OS, Mach OS, ChorusOS, QNX Neutrino, E1 DOS, I'm looking at OpenNebula but it is looking a bit big as its just me on the project and its for next friday

    Also watching listening to the TNT stream to hear what he says on whole thing

  4. great video, I was minus sound as in class but I liked the awesome wall papers as you went through it.

    Maybe just have 30secs where you show the final system running, just to show how awesome and easy the how thing is to really get some people to go wow I want that

  5. more a Komplett.ie person myself, probably spent around 2,000euro mainly on a complete PC, screen, keyboard, mouse etc 4 years ago and then random upgrades since then. Am thinking about getting a new Gcard soon so I can play crysis 2 cause I just completed building my pc as Crysis came out and it was fun to benchmark my pc against that. oh yes running the game at medium settings with 25fps!! :)

  6. cap on my Inet connection is very annoying but I'll join the server to see whats its like.

    Usually playing Huntsman sniper so I want loads of doors or corners I can wait for ppl to come thru to get arrow to the face

    Bit messing atm would usually only have 2 lines of icons. ha I haven't taken a SS of this laptop wallpaper since Sep-09 long time to go without contributing to this long established thread.

    Pic is when I was sailing around Ireland 4/5 years ago

  8. @wetwork 18 months of AoC, thats a looong time I left that after first months payment was up.

    I'm interested in STOL but waiting till I have more time on my hands and then going to try it first not buy straight away. MMOs thou get better (usually) with time

  9. ha love the way half life 2 is in there twice.

    My opinion is to buy the orange box, half life 2 with the other 2 episodes, Portal and Team Fortress 2 all for the price as a new game. Might be some some deal where you could get left 4 dead included aswell I'm unsure though.

    Good list but if your cousin likes a certain type of game that could change the list.
