It's funny how PC games pricing here in the UK has been more or less constant for as long as I can remember. Wing Commander II was £30 when I bought it on floppy years ago and all the latest titles are still £30 pounds. Whereas I've seen console titles at £50, £60 and even as high as £70.

After having a 9800 pro and a x800 pro running under Windows XP I agree with your statement. ;)
I need a refresher course.
Am I alone in this need?
I used to work for what was Pink Floyds P.A. hire company (http://www.britanniarow.com/)
;)
In the late eighties when they reformed and started touring again there was a running joke amongst the road crew.
Q) Why have Pink Floyd started touring again?
A) Because Nick Mason has a wife and 102 Ferrari's to support.
"People might find that the music back then was actually really "better" than the crap spewed by today's hype"
;)
I can assure that there was crap around then too.
The Archies and Paper Lace are just two that immediately spring to mind, but there were a lot more.
Clive Barkers Undying springs to mind. And it was scary to boot.
Much underrated game to my mind. One of the few games that I have actually played all the way through.
Shadowman was another.
How large was the attachment?
Have you tried with something a few megs in size?

Nothing for you to hear here, move along please.
The old bedstead and bicycle wheel monsters hideout has been found. Also, links to the boot and shoe monster were discovered.
but "cool" has become number one for me and "podcast" comes a close second.
It doesn't come with identity theft or credit card fraud though. Which I expect accounts for more theft now than was ever done with cash thefts.

The Dirty Digger doesn't like the BBC.

All of the above?
Isn't role reversal a wonderful thing. ;)
Yes, I'm from the UK.
How do you know the $150 printer is not a piece of garbage too?

I remember when I bought my first Spectrum 48k.
When I brought it home the wife said "Why can't you buy something all the family can use". Within three days I couldn't get near the damn thing.
Two words.
;)
Spinal Tap.
Voodoo3 was a lot cheaper than a TNT2 here in the UK. That is why I bought one. ;)
Plus I had invested a fair ammount in glide games. Didn't switch untill the GeForce 256 came out.
29. HP LaserJet 4L (1993)
I bought one of these back then, lasted till June 2006. I bought another one for £9.99 (with HP toner) on eBay.
Older HP laser printers are excellent pieces of kit.
