    Antivirus question.

    +1 for AVAST, the Nortons/McAfee offerings are pretty bloatware these days and I would not personally recommend them for home use.

    "Panasonic G series" Owners Thread

    I know where you are coming from, once or twice now I have forgotten about the lack of viewfinder but hope I will adapt, if not then I'll sell a lens from my canon and get the LVF, well, as long as it comes down in price a little :thumbs: Looking forward to trying it out now at the...

    "Panasonic G series" Owners Thread

    Well that's another one for the "club", had a good business review with my boss so treated myself to a Panasonic LUMIX DMC-GX1 with 14-42mm Lens. The build quality is far better than I was led to believe and can't wait to get my 20mm lens later this week :clap:

    anyone moved away from a Blackberry?

    I moved away from Blackberry handset in November (9780 Bold) and am now using the new Nokia..I have to admit that I am actually really impressed with it, great screen and since they released the last patch to deal with the power issues it's actually very usable! Misses has an iPhone 4S, again...

    I'm guessing that this is a one man show, checking the domain info, it shows that the domain is for a non-trading individual, I would advise on a few more checks before you part with cash just to be safe.

    Poss new PC Spec.

    Hi Graham, Ginger 6 are a good, well established company so you won't go wrong there. I know a few folk have jumped on my video card remarks but everyone will have an opinion and only you will know what cost to performance ratio you will be happy with.. What ever you get, I'm sure it will...

    Help with home network

    Hi there, In case you are in the market for a switch then you can get a TP-Link 5-Port Gigabit Unmanaged Desktop Switch for less than £14 on Amazon. It's basic but they do work really well, bought a few of these in the past for friends & family. Al

    Poss new PC Spec.

    The better the GPU & memory, the higher the resolution you can run your monitor at and quicker the redraws will be be, it gives you the flexibility of doing more with the machine, outside of photoshop too. I'm just going on experience, the new range of CPU's i5 & i7 are more than capable for...

    Poss new PC Spec.

    That's good Graham, if you want to see some of the performance stats of the parts then you can have a look at sites such as http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/. You can do comparisons on GPU's etc & hard drives. I know it might not mean much now, but a pc is usually a 4 year investment for folk so...

    Poss new PC Spec.

    In that case you really want to look for a video card that has at least 1GB of memory as standard (min model I would be looking at, would be the HD6770, has 800 cores and it probably gives you the best core to cost ratio for the AMD chipsets) The next things to look at are CPU, nearly all the...

    Poss new PC Spec.

    Hey there, First of all, never heard of this company but there are a lot of these custom pc builders out there so I wasn't too surprised that I hadn't. As Neil pointed out, most of these components are pretty basic and are budget parts, the HD5450 video card is nearly 2 years old for...

    Not great to hear about the Epson issues, have to admit that I have owned a few over they years and been lucky enough not to have any issues at all. Have multiple machines (32/64 bit) printing fine and also have the tablets printing to it (good app for the iPad is provided by Epson). I...

    New A4 printer recomendations

    Hi there, I recently got an Epson Stylus Px730Wd (around £120 on Amazon), it's been an improvement over the HP unit I had but I have found that the ink seems to run out quickly and isn't the cheapest but the results are very good. Kodak seem to have a good rep at the moment and their ink...
