NZR - Make a PC decision for me...
Ok boys I went for secret Option number 3... EMachines 410 Product Features Intel Celeron 2.4GHz Processor 512Mb RAM 80Gb Hard Drive 48x CDRW drive 16x DVD ROM drive 64Mb ATi Radeon 9200 Graphics Card 6 USB Connections 3 PCI Slots Windows XP Home Edition 1 Year FREE Onsite Warranty It was £599, but I haggled a bit and got 15" Samsung TFT, half decent printer + USB cable for an extra £50 :D Bargain! Is this a more suitable graphics card? Trouble is now I've got to reconnect to BT Openworld on the new PC... :rolleyes: Cheers for the help :) Pete

Would like to get broadband for gaming, would there be a noticeable difference between the 2 processors?

NZR - Make a PC decision for me...
Ok people, need a hand here. I'm getting a nice new PC tonight, now I've got a choice of 2 I can get at mate's rates ;)... Choice 1 - £449 Product Features Intel Celeron 2.2GHz Processor 256Mb RAM 60 Gb Hard Drive 16x DVD Drive 24x CDRW Drive 64Mb Shared Graphics card 17" Monitor (15.7" V.I.S.) 4 USB connections Windows XP Home Edition 1 Year FREE Onsite Warranty Choice 2 - £649 Product Features Intel Celeron 2.4GHz Processor 256 Mb DDR RAM Memory 80 Gb Hard Drive DVD-RW Drive 64 Mb Shared Graphics 15" TFT Monitor 3 No of PCI Slots 4 No of USB connections Windows XP Home Operating system 1 Year Free Onsite Warranty Both are Packard Bell and come with the same Win XP and software, but are the extras/upgrades on 2 worth paying the extra £200 for? And do I really need them? :D Thanks :) Pete

wheel spacers
I guess spacers move the load exerted by the car on the axles etc further from the pivots ie the wheels (or the pivots further from the load of course ;) ) so they will put more stress on bearings IMO. I doubt it has *that* much effect though, certainly not as much as tearing round corners regularly ;) Oh well, hopefully I'll be getting calipers and alloys refurbed as well as the buckled wing panel swapped and sprayed if necessary, and the longer bolts :). So my car should come out nicer than before :D Cheers Pete

What to do....
Order some "bits" for it :D:D

Can you get me off mine too then mate? ;) Hopefully they've got no evidence... The more you can do to increase their costs whilst sticking politely to your rights, without blatantly pissing them off, the more chance of getting off surely?

Aye but they still have to provide evidence of calibration, training, etc at your request if you intend to question it in court. It can work in that they may drop the case because of the time and cost of collating such proof.

wheel spacers
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Take them off mate, my wheel came off coming off a roundabout last night due to there not being enough bolt on nut, very embarrassed but dont want the same to happen to anyone cos it could have been all lot worse if I was going quicker :eek: I have (had) 8mm spacers - well one is broken into little pieces now... Massive thanks to Jeff for sorting me out very late last night, and to Berks for the phonecalls. Pete
