Drink and drive ?

Wouldn't it be great if a government decided to start shredding cars of drunk drivers. Bonus points if they played each shredding on the news.  Would definitely make people think again about drink driving.

What Camera should I Buy?

I have been looking around at DSLR's for a while now and think I have managed to get my choices down to two brands , Sony and Canon.  Now I know a  lot of people would shudder at the idea of a sony but looking at the specs they are really good value but.. the sony uses alot of their own attachments like shutter release and flash mounts. On the other hand Canon is much better knowen, has a broader range and better 3rd party support but tends to cost a little more.

So I am looking at spending approximatly $1000 - $1200 on a camera , for that I want a good body and preferbly a twin lense  set up and hell thrown in a 1 gig card. What are your suggestions ?

Eee pc 901 review part 3


 

Today I threw the default eee OS back on the eee, I found the system to be very intuitive and easy to use. I was able to do basic things like create documents and play movies without needing to install any other software. Overall I would guess that the preinstalled apps would cover most people needs.

 

The one thing I really missed was the typical start menu style I was accustomed to, however I didn’t have to look far to find out how to enable the start menu.  You can find out here http://wiki.eeeuser.com/howto:icewmstartmenu

Battery life under linux seems longer but I don’t have any stats to prove this. If I had much more time with this machine I would be inclined to test Ubuntu on it.

 

To be continued…
