I had an Intel 330 Series 120gb SSD in my desktop PC and it worked perfectly fine. It also came with a 2.5-3.5 bracket for mounting in the desktop case.
I have now moved that drive to my laptop and installed an OCZ Agility 3 series in my desktop. Had no problems with either ssd but imo the Intel is slightly quicker. Not done any benchmarks but the intel just seemed to do things that little bit quicker.

Hi John I got the series 2 for the netbook as it's on special offer on ebuyer.
I have the series 3 on my pc as the os drive only.
SII is about 300mb sec and series III about 500mb sec
Series 2 should be enough for my Netbook

Bought myself a cheap Asus Xonar DG sound card for my PC. The onboard audio was ok, but it wasn't enough to properly drive my sennheiser HD 600's! The audio is now brilliant with the cards built-in headphone amp and 'Dolby Headphone' virtual surround support for gaming 
. It shows that even a cheap sound card is a nice step up from onboard audio (which in my case was a THX certified Realtek ALC892 chip supporting 24-bit/192Khz and 7.1 surround sound... But the cheap Xonar DG still manages to sound miles better!).

Ive had a Xonar DG for a couple of years now, more than happy with it, and it sounds very nice with headphones.

Just ordered a new Xbox 360 headset for my partner as hers broke... I bought the wireless 'Orb GPX11' which she can also use with her PC . I ordered from Grainger Games as they were significantly cheaper compared to all other places

Wow that looks great - will be perfect for our Living Room TV as I have lots of consoles to hook up. Can I have the link?
Cheers
Here is the Silver version I bought

You get a nice remote with it too but I find it's not really needed as after a few seconds it auto changes to the channel a signal is coming from. You can also label the 7 channels as you like to be displayed on the LED and it saves them when the power is off.

Finally, after months of waiting (and a b**** fit via email to RS Components) I've received my Raspberry Pi - for my troubles they've given me the new 512MB version (instead of the 256MB one) so I'm now happy
I'm currently posting from the Pi and just messing about in Raspian seeing what it has to offer etc. not decided on which project I'm going to carry out with the little blighter yet. May go and get a bigger card though, as I'm only using a 2GB SD card.

Picked up an A4000 and an A2000 today, cost me a bit in fuel and a few bottles of wine.
Sorting through alot of stuff but briefly
The A2000 had an A2630 with 4MBs, a A2000 HC GVP controller and harddrive, 2 Disk Drives and 3.1 Roms.
The A4000/040 has a CDRom installed, a harddrive attached to a DKB rapidfire, a Vlab Motion, an Emplant board and a Opalvision card The cpu is an 040 there is 3.1 roms and a buster 11 and the MB is fully populated.
Both machines are in great condition.
A very nice start to the weekend I say

The most recent piece of Apple hardware I ever owned still had the colored apple-logo, but today I finally fell victim to the i-virus. Behold my new iPad 2 (freebie with a newspaper subscription

? That subscription must last years for them to recover the cost of the iPad!
