    Board Games

    Me and Mrs A. have got a fair few - didn't think Mrs A. would be in to them but was pleasantly surprised! Munchkin. Better with more than two players but can work with two. Plenty of replayability with the expansions you can get. Carcassonne. 2-7 players. Works with two and again plenty...

    Royal Baby soon to put in an appearance

    You guys are lucky - I have to look out of my bedroom window and see Wellington: Majestic Centre lights being lit up with either pink or blue depending on sex. Then I have to go and work in the place the next morning!

    Where do you keep your USB stick?

    One credit card sized one in my wallet. One Fob-type on my key-ring. 3 next to my main machine (when they haven't been loaned to people as is currently the case). One in the car.

    What do you regret buying the most?

    Every single item I think "oooh - I can save money by buying this one - it's a lot cheaper". I have learned so many times that spending more on an item is always better. If you want to buy something, always buy the most expensive you can afford - saves a lot of heartache in the long run. I...

    what bought you to the ocuk website?

    I got a P166MMX from Evesham Micro (!) back in 1996. I failed to install the motherboard correctly and it cost me some money to get them to install it. I vowed that I would never let that happen and so I studies the various websites at that time and OCUK stood out. I admit I have only bought...

    Melbourne in Australia - Things to do!

    Going for Christmas (Cousin lives there - well about an hour out at Ballarat). Got tickets to the Boxing Day test at MCG and want to play Royal Melbourne Golf Club. Didn't realize about the casino - will have to organize a wine tasting for Mrs. A so I can get there :)

    *** New Design 2012 iMac 21.5" & 27" ***

    I have been rocking a 20" March 2006 (!) iMac from new. Wanted to replace but was always waiting for the refresh. After refresh I decided on a refurbished 21.5" May 2011. $500 cheaper, i5 processor, 4GB RAM (User upgradable), 500GB HDD (I have Media Servers to hold stuff if required) - it's...

    Can't get passed the first part of the SP - when it says SPACE, it says it three times then I die :( MP works a treat though!

    ***The Official Core i5 Overclocking Thread***

    heheh - yep. Ran an OCCZ at 3800 MHz and hit 99 deg. But with a 5750 graphics card in it, it plays Modern Warfare 2 at 1920x1050 without stuttering even at stock CPU so this is just to see what I can boot Windows into :) Would be nice to get 4.5GHz but 190 Bus failed boot so will need to...

    ***The Official Core i5 Overclocking Thread***

    Stock cooler with stock Thermal Pad (!) - Gigabyte P55-UDR3 motherboard. I doubt this is stable (Didn't try anything, and the heat at idle was 58 deg. But for a stock system this is an incredible chip considering the default gives you 2.66Ghz. Takes me back to the Thunderbird Athlon days...

    would you rather

    *cough* I don;t know the figures tbh, but I would bet Boro are somewhere near that one - certainly we have had the excitement of a title challenge, and then a relegation battle in the SAME season! Plus twice losing cup finalists and relegation in the same season takes some beating.
