I have been checking out the Nintendo Wii, and I'm impressed.
not only is it backwards compatible with the Game Cube, but you get a virtual machine with the whole of nintendo's back catalogue, from the NES to the N64.
So, guess what I'll be putting all the money that I get for christmas towards.
I have a really fast connection with my isp (10 meg), and whilst I get this speed fully upstairs on my main pc & my burner, I barely get a 4 meg connection downstairs on my Laptop.
I have managed to isolate the problem to the Dumb Hub that splits the connection between the Wireless acces point & the Network hard drive as it is 5/10 Mbps not the full 10/100Mbps that the rest of my equipment is.
One of my mates has managed to find a 54g wireless router for under £15 including shipping, so he ordered that for me.
Hopefully he should have that down Da GC for me tonight & that should bring my browsing & file storage back up to speed.
Here's hoping anyway.
Peace Out.

Hectic......
Long time no update,
well, My Birthday went well, and I made out like a bandit with presents, Lego Star Wars II, a remote controlled K9, Weird Al's new album, and a load of other cool stuff.
Then I was hit with a cold which felt more like the flu, the air conditioning in work was not working properly, and my corner of the building was so hot I was almost passing out.
So I took a couple of days off sick & tried to get better.
All too soon I was back in work.
I still haven't managed to win the lottery, but a friend has offered me a job driving a Taxi for him, I am seriously considering this, as I am dreading the end of this project & having to go back to regular tech calls.
I opened my safe for the first time in months last night to check on my pistols, the 2 air pistols were fine, but my black powder pistol had siezed and needs some tlc, so I'll spend a couple of hours tomorrow giving it a damn good clean.
Looking forward to tomorrow night down at the golf club, we are having a big foreworks display.
One of the members is a licenced Pyrotechnican, so we should have some BIG BANGS.
Well I'd better get on with some work I suppose.
Peace Out.
