I think Spotify have a deal going with Linkin Park if Rock Radio's anything to go by... Either that or Spotify has a silly amount of LP listeners or something.

What IS the benefit of a quad-core processor in a tablet? Am I correct in assuming many apps wouldn't be coded to take 'proper' advantage of it? Cos some apps aren't the best full stop :oops:

I've got the Acer A200 and it's been upgraded you see ;)

It's so marketing types can write 'quad core' on the adverts. And in androids case, so it can run at something approaching reasonable speed.

I've never had any speed problems with my budget dual-core tablet, hence asking :P

My mate's staff/lab dog sunk it's teeth into their miniature jack russell's wind pipe and punctured it - it's body swelled with oxygen too. Basically, tiny tears winds the big docile thing up until it can't take it any more. One way or another, it won't be doing it again I guess :shock:


The dog is back at home and still yapping :roll: , though I'm guessing he's not annoying the big lad :twisted:

The highly trained CIA agents in Homeland are acting just like dumb Hollywood script writers. Funny that.

Sitting around, drinking coffee with a copy of Final Draft and whinging about percentages and fees?
I doubt that'll solve the case.

I do think that many tablets were very laggy and so barely useable. It might change if the OS is changed to make better use of the extra cores.

I can't remember how long I've been on the 5:2 diet but I stopped two weeks ago. Up until then, I'd lost around 7kg in weight, which was awesome. But in the past week, I've gained 2kg from eating all the crap that comes with Xmas. The diet does work but it's really difficult to maintain at the moment.
