I like it, its clean, has some very interesting subject matter and some good pictures, ticks all my boxes from a design pov as well, good job! The only real tiny thing i wasnt keen on was the logo for the site, it seems a bit out of sorts.

Gotta be many options of username/password controlled galleries out there i would have thought... in fact just come across this thread on the same subject - http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=39811

Silly question, but what ssd's are you running in the macbook air? Every time i find one apple stop the company from selling them :s (apart from there own product offering)

I have been involved in this side of the industry for many years and there is always a get out clause even on the unlimiteds under the AUP (acceptable use policy) and when the parent company starts getting compromised or the bandwidth being used starts to impact other paying customers, you will...

Some interesting reading on the subject for anyone brave enough to try - http://www.which.co.uk/consumer-rights/sale-of-goods/your-rights-pricing-disputes/how-to-complain/

Well its now into its fourth day, still on there website at the same price as the offer, still sitting under a big red banner clearly stating that "Summer sale half price on selected lines" im almost tempted to order again just to enjoy further argument, cant be that hard to take it off there...

just reading on hotukdeals (hardly a reliable source, but hey it adds to the intrigue) that over 300 units were sold, at a grand a time and 5 days to refund, thats quite a decent deal to get some interest over 5 days - which they are still selling at the offer price that has been in place since...

It's worth hassling Tesco just because i hate there attitude of being the big untouchable corporation (or that was the feeling they gave me on the phone). I know from arguments with other retailers, its not up the retailer to make you aware of your rights and how they can be enforced, but if...

Rick is basically saying what the trading standards guy said, once they have taken the funds (which they have from me as well) they cant come back and change it, however enforcement could be rather hard as menthel says. My own understanding is that you cannot write t+cs that contradict any law...

I had an interesting chat with Trading standards, they were miffed that despite acknowledging incorrect price they are still selling, and were of the opinion that as credit cards were used a contract may have been entered into (dont shoot the messenger im quoting what trading standards said)...

i love those so high on the moral high ground they cant see the wood for the trees even if the forest is burning... when i got my call i was told it will take up to 5 days to be refunded, thats a six day period someone is earning money on my money. Not to mention the fact the "wrongly"...

Its an interesting thought as to how many orders were placed and how much interest tesco earned. That's before you consider the seo advantages of the number of visitors tesco direct received and the amount of backlinks they will get..... Win win for tesco all round it seems, gives me an idea...

just ordered, great find, used the afore mentioned £50 voucher, gone through quidco as well to get an 5% (£45) cash back as well :)

I suspect it depends on who or what you are benchmarking for. At work the user community expect it from power on to desktop, whereas at home I discount the pre ntldr as there is v little I can do to alter this speed (excluding any fast boot bios options). No acces to timings ATM, will get some...

4-6gb of ram, 1gb of video ram, q9550 CPUs on win7 64. Hmm 70 apps on the STD desktop build to test alongside a vmware based windows os, this could be fun more so if we had any vmware resource :s
