£2.5 million. Kinnell  :o


Bog off  :D :D
I'm having a bad day  ;D ;D ;D

It was 2500 quid  :y :y
Not bad for a 16 year old who spends most of his time sat on his arse playing with his phone  ::)
My lad sits on his phone playing with his arse ;D

Solid state disk to replace the 160Gb (IIRC) hard disk.


You *must* use ESP with memory. Anyone who tells you otherwise is full of 'dangle berries'.

The lads netbook came with a 250 gig hard drive iirc.
Am I right in thinking that a SSD has no moving parts so more stable ?
Faster, less power, more robust. A 250Gb SSD withh be £200, so too expensive for what is a slow PC


Gotcha  :y

The lad got the first 2 1/2 months money threw from nokia just before christmas for those apps he was writing.
2500 grand  :o :) :)   
So he is looking to upgrade his netbook and maybe re build his desktop  :)
If he has a need for a netbook, all well and good. But a laptop is a more capable device

Agree with you there  :y

Tbh, the netbook was a christmas box of me and the missus 12 months back when we was really on the bones of our arses  :(
I'm pretty sure he knows that but I don't think he wants to replace it just yet because he thinks it would upset us so thats why he is looking to upgrade it a little and get some use out of it :)

Right, had a word with the lad and decided to stick 2 gig of ram in it and see how it goes.
Thanks for the youtube pointer and advice lads  :)
