I'm in Cairns and I can tell you there is always only 1 sign approximately 3 feet from the camera van....always on the Southern Access Road..:)
(how far offtopic can we get:)
fair call...but i was just pulling out figures from memory.i was more interested in seeing if others get the same sort of figures.
agree with the applications bloating out as well - probably more so than the OS.
Drive space is increasing at a rate that is directly proportional to the bloated size of Mircosoft Operating Systems.
1991 - DOS 6.22 about 5MB for the OS on a 40MB HDD
1996 - Win95 about 300MB for the OS on a 1.7GB HDD
2002 - WinXPPro about 2.5GB for the OS on a 40GB HDD.
2007 - LonghornSP4 about 20GIG!? for the OS on maybe 400GB drives?
How far out am I? Probably heaps but you get the idea.
I totally agree.
I reckon after Peter Davison's series the stories started their downhill slide. The Tom Baker era was my favourite (naturally) but Davison's era comes close with some good writing even when the special effects were improving even by Dr Who standards.
I remember watching McCoy's series for the first time and was almost driven to vomit. Stories with kids on bikes and clowns etc did no justice to the earlier episodes. At least Pertwee and Tom Baker's stories were SCARY (and made sense).
I hope the new series if ever made stays true to the original series 'rules' and storyline. Lets still have the police box and not some half-arsed excuse that 'suddenly the doctor fixed the chameleon circuit' or similar.
Someone made the suggestion that they would use the Sony Aibo as K9! I can here 1 million Who fans throwing bricks at the TV should that occur...
Anthony Steward Head would possibly be a great doctor - definately has the right 'presence'.
My 2 cents only..

Yeah...right - you had CDRs in 1990 or before. Whatever.
