The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues
#137215
What a flipping week. I switch on the computer last Wednesday and an error message comes up as soon as i switch it on. I cant get on windows let alone the internet. I take the tower down to the PC store to have it checked out and they basically tell me everythings been wiped and it cant recognise any of my hard drives. I ask if they can fix it and they hum and haa until eventually today I ask them to make me a new tower. So here it is im now on it after shelling out £335 for it. Consequently ive been without the Internet for a whole week. Possibly the first time that has occured in 4 years.
That meant having to watch the TV. So interspersed watching Play Along Family Fortunes on Challenge TV, I usually go to my old favourite Nation277. I decided to enter one of the competitions on Saturdays called Celebrity Battleships and lo and behold won the top prize of £250. Not bad going. I had to answer 4 media type questions and pick the right co-ordinates.
So I decided to splash out on this tower. This is why i have been inactive online for the past week and that is why the Buzz Off page has not been updated. I have to go and download RealOne player again too!!!
So im back again trying to download all the stuff i can get for nowt.

F*cking what?? £335 ???????? Being a geek doesn't have it's disadvatages, at least then you'd have been able to fix it yourself.

How long did you review the show for? Sitting and listening to every minute of the show and writing down what happens for 3 hours, and you'd class yourself as normal?

hah, it makes you wonder what Uglybob would constitute as being a geek.

Knowing something useful about computers, or reviewing a radio show for an unofficial website.

they were good reviews though to be fair
