Topic: I hate Comic Sans

I think comic sans has it's uses, but it's not really suitable as a corporate body text font.

On the other hand, it is so dull to see people who use nothing but Times New Roman.

Yeah I have to agree, with the relatively low cost of EIDE hard drives these days (and of course the peanuts that it now costs to archive material you don't need all the time to CDR), I can't see much justification for having 3 hard drives. You'd be better off swapping one of them out (or even both ...

There isn't really a principal character anymore anyway. Parminder Nagra could be primed to take over as a focal point - remember Carter was only a med student at the start, and they tried to start that story arc again once before with Kellie Martin as Lucy Knight. Was there ever a principal charac...

Why not just make it yourself? Buy a stereo 3.5mm jack, two mono 6.25mm jacks, and a few metres of speaker cable. At the place I buy my bits from, that lot will come to a couple of quid.

Brush my teeth twice a day usually. Never floss nor do anything else. Very rarely visit the dentist either (as in only if I'm in pain or for some other reason feel the need to go). Whilst I'm sure many will predict the imminant demise of my teeth because of this, they're still doing the job at prese...

If you've not allready gone, I think you should go. The biggest regret of my life was that two years ago when my grandad was in hospital and I took other people's advice to go home and get some rest against my gut feeling, the worst happened and I wasn't there (nor was anyone else). I hope your Gran...

On SP2 I've noticed a little bug, a lot of the drop down menus in Windows explorer are now 'squished' so that the full text doesn't fit on properly. Please tell me that I'm not the only one experiencing this? Mine's okay... Screenshot? Screen shot below. It shows firstly menu options being cut off,...

Version 5 of Windows update suddenly appeared on my laptop a few weeks ago. I'm not sure I like version 5. It required not one, but two downloads and a restart in order to deploy it. And on top of that, every update I've downloaded so far has forced a restart on me, even when it just appears to be s...

Hmm. A typical American response actually - presuming that Michael Howard would WANT to meet the president. Of course it would be beneficial for a Michael Howard-led Britain to get on with the US president (assuming Bush is still there by then - which he may well not be), but it would surely be more...
