  1. I had one in Bungalows and Bears the other week, very nice
  2. Try not to look down on 1st line support jobs, you can always work your way up through a company.
  3. Sounds like a bit of an over-reaction! I think Sheffield's economy would suffer without students!
  4. I used to get a free cheese burger in McDonald's with any order when I showed my NUS card, not sure if this is still valid.
  5. I'm also looking for a window cleaner, but for Chapeltown. What's the typical charge for a 2 bedroom house? I've never had to find a window cleaner before, when I lived in Newcastle there was a guy who came around and just did them and put a card through your door.
  6. I have a Acer Revo, similar to the one posted above, running XBMC (http://xbmc.org/). I stream all my media from a Synology DS211J (http://www.ebuyer.com/247319-synology-ds211j-2-bay-nas-enclosure-ds211j) This has 2 hard-drives running in RAID1, so all data is backed up. It is an expensive solution but it plays everything I throw at it and I have very little risk of losing anything.
  7. This is a bit of a generalisation! I moved to Sheffield 6 years ago to go to Uni here. I've found that the majority of students are polite and well mannered, however you do get the odd group that have been mothered all the lives then get into the big wide world and just go crazy. I used to prefer going out in the week on student nights cause there was a lot less trouble than on weekends (especially embrace, don't go there any more!)
  8. I think it looks a lot better (like Opera has for ages) and runs a lot faster, don't think its crashed on me once.
  9. Forgive me if this has been asked before but once the OS has finished booting is the performance still bad? Is it literally just the boot time which is poor?
  10. thanks for that mate, just googled them and found that the menu is almost identical, will give them a try
  11. IMO third party firewalls aren't required if you're behind a router with firewall and have a up to date anti-virus and anti-spyware. I've found Comodo to be overly paranoid and a bit of a system resource hog.
  12. I know this restaurant closed ages ago but I was just wondering if they had re-opened elsewhere? Good italian food!
  13. ask4 is very good value for money as they supply synchronous connections (meaning you get the same upload and download speed). 4Mbit/4Mbit packages are £15 a month, and there's no line rental!
