All that effort saving to wasting 50% of it on apple premium tax.
Sounds like both are doing great, happy days.
Yeah, but, i have to say, i didn't relaise how much easier life would be with this over a laptop. I want a desk top computer again for more serious stuff, and hopefully that will last longer than my laptops were lasting.:D0 -

Well, at least it was his money to waste and not mine! I can't see the attraction personally but there you go....his money, his choice.We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

This is true, as a general rule if you spend the same on a desktop to laptop the desktop will be significantly better.
I run a powerful desktop to run my business and a powerful netbook (in netbook terms) for on the move.
Ipads are all very well but they can't play crysis 2 as well as my netbook which cost a third of the price.Have my first business premises (+4th business) 01/11/2017

After a lot of research I decided that laptops, if you can find the right one, were not much better than a desktop of the same price nowadays.
I just got a toshiba laptop from ebuyer for £350 that I'm happy with.I'm a Forum Ambassador on the housing, mortgages & student money saving boards.

I still prefer a desktop to a laptop but not by as much now I have contact lenses.
Anyone buy their contact lenses online?
I think I've established the correct strength and may try a few different brands.0 -

I have a scheme where they are sent to me in the post, not quite online as I go into the opticians to get my eyes checked etc.
If this is the first time you are using contact lens I would reccommend that you join a scheme as you really need to get your eyes checked out after wearing them for a few weeks. A bit risky to buy online and have no-one look at your eyes IMHO. I'm part of the D&A/ Boots scheme. It doesn't cost much as I stop the scheme payments whenever I have too many lens at home.

Not legal? What do they say? "My rottie will bite your botty!"
....or worse? :eek:
How about, "Muh bad wolfhound will pin ya to de ground!" :cool:
Anyway, that settles it: if you can have illegal dog signs I can have a dodgy Free Range Egg sign.0 -
Is this legal?
