Hey,
I'm eighteen years old and I am on the second year of a BTEC National
Diploma for IT Practitioners. I'm looking at achieving either a DDM

Hey everyone,
Thanks for your replies. I'm just running out of the door for College
so I'll keep this short. Out of your experience is there a big
difference between a BSc from a top University (like York) and that of
a lower ranking Computer Science course at somewhere like Essex or
East Anglia?
Well I'm interested in York Uni. What other Universities are good for
Computer Science and would you generally recommend? What University
are you at?

It doesn't specify a time which makes it pretty difficult to build
plans around it. Sadly it doesn't seem to specify prices either. It's
a shame because if it's at a reasonable time I might be able to make

Hey guys,
So I just won a copy of Windows Vista Ultimate Edition in a prize draw
and figured that it's no use to me as an Ubuntu user. I'm pretty sure

Hey fellow Ubuntu users,
I have recently been trying to work out how to do a number of things
involved in programming on my machine. What I would like is version

I have an Inspiron 1525 and have had no problems with it in terms of
graphics. Just some problems using the second earphone slot in
Intrepid due to a bug with something in Ubuntu (don't know if it's
been reported or how to do so as I'm not sure which program has a

Thanks for this. I hadn't even realised my Add/Remove was messed up as
I tend to install via the terminal or Synaptic Package Manager but
