Interesting... sounds more like the thermal transfer pads used commonly instead of good quality thermal paste like arctic silver. If you have heat problems I can strongly recommend arctic silver from my heavy overclocking days Anton On 19 Aug 2010 16:46, "Alan Lord (News)" wrote: > On 19/08/10 1

Thanks for all the replies! Looks like I'll ignore the OCR idea then - that was just a 'it would be good if' idea. John, your idea of typing them up directly to my computer would be a bit tricky, since I don't own a laptop! Plus, I enjoy actually handwriting my notes since my course does a lot on

The big difference between things like rational team concert (rtc) and svn,git,bzr,etc is that rtc is a full product feature and bug tracking tool, with timeline planning and code control, based around agile methodologies. If you just want code control then rtc is overkill for this task. Anton On
