__Dunno if it's perhaps a coincidence...I had to reboot for that latest firmware update for the Core2 Duo Macs....and that seem to push the clock forward.__
Yep, a reboot fixed it.
Oh -- me too! I turned the machine off to rearrange the power leads under the desk and hadn't noticed that the time had automatically corrected itself.

Figured you'd be there Russell. My wife and I had a sweepstake on which of us would spot you first - but neither of us did :-(.
Saw several other PA denizens though.
Yeah, I saw Robyn, but I wasn't around beforehand and only briefly afterwards.
But Brent mate, I'm trying to send you a bottle of whisky! You won the Whisky Galore ad copy comp for last week. Feel free to get in touch with your delivery address ...

Rookie move buying Apple RAM. It is far cheaper and quicker to buy the box as is and then get some RAM from one of the local PC shops for about $150GB. There are even videos to show you how to change the RAM. So simple even n00bs can do it.
Ahem. Yes, guess I could have in retrospect (the Apple RAM is $250), but when you're getting a little media discount you just keep it simple.
I did pop open the little RAM drawer in the loan machine in the course of trying to diagnose its horrible hardware failure though. It's quite cool.
But do you know what the service entry for bigger jobs is on the new iMacs? You take the screen off! Retailers have been issued with big suction-cup thingies as part of the service kit.

While I don't want to tempt fate, I think the 'key player' worry has become almost superfluous under the 3 wise men - if we lose a game at this tournament I doubt it will be because an individual player - even Richie - was missed.
And that was always their number one rationale for the rotation system. They looked back to previous World Cups and determined that injuries -- and players consequently playing out of position -- had been a significant factor in the All Blacks' failures.

Experiences with certified freeview boxes:
Interesting. We've got a smaller Zinwell box (Freeview sent it to me a little while ago), and it performed its software upgrade flawlessly. But yes, when the "approved" decoders are so iffy, it rather undermines the quality control argument for being so tight on approvals.

Not to start a controversy, but I'm not sure about the carried back decision. I thought the ball just lingered short of the line.
Nah. I thought it clearly bounced on the line and was therefore in goal.

In sum, it seems the impact of the clubs on rugby in Europe has lead to a steep decline in the international game over there.
Yet if you read the post-mortems in the British press, that's not really foremost in their minds.

I double-checked by trying to buy a song I'd successfully bought last week, and it won't let me do that either.
Back to iTunes, I guess, but it will never be the same now.Yep, me too. Maybe I should've kept schtum.

I'd just like to say that the above post is now owning the Google results for "Invisible Harblz".

I'm suprised you got it to work with either the Zinwell or Hills boxes - neither worked for me and I ended up with an unofficial "Kaon" one.
What happened? Just no signal?
