    Or you could write a report arguing in favor of all the bad points about PB, boy that'd be a long post! (sarcasm)

    Hey, I have an idea for a discussion: Why don't we talk about what kind of computers are we using? Kind of like a survey thing.

    I am using a Hewlett-Packard PC with Windows XP.
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    Well Mines an Athlon 4, I think. Whatever its better than pentium! Its Evesham and new it had about 80 gigabites or something, its very good! And it's running XP Home. I like this discussion, I can pretend that I am smart! You gusy can teach me stuff bout computers!

    Mine also has an Athlon processor running at 2.13 GHz, as well as an 80 GB hard drive.

    Our computers are actually very similar! When did you buy yours, Jedi Master? It will be one year in two months since I bought mine. It is interesting that I know a good bit about computers, since this computer is the first computer that I've ever had! :)

    Well, as you started the discussion..

    This is my second computer, and it is an 'Advent' with a 120gb, 3.06ghz Pentium 4 processor.

    Hehe, my first was a 350mhz 'Tiny' with a 6gb, Pentium II processor. It sounded good back in '98!!
  • tirpitztirpitz Posts: 339MI6 Agent
    It seems I'm the least computer powerful here. I got a Pentium 4 with 1.8 Ghz, 256MB of memory, and 35Gig hardrive.

    Hey I got my pc about the same time! It was very funny it just arrived at the door one morning and that was the first we heard of it! We had been pressuring dad to get a new PC, rather than our old one which was Pentium 2 with 4 GB hard drive and Windows 98, naff huh?! Anyway it was very funny! Plus I have a 3D surround sound system with 5 tweeters and a sub woofer, NTL broadband modem, a simple logitech webcam/microphone and an Hp deskjet laser printer. Oh and my moniter is a SyncMaster 975 df made by Samsung with a 17 inch diagonal picture! (the picture is 17 inches from top left to bottom right)

    In case you're looking
    for another reason
    to prolong this thread to 1000,
    let me ask:

    where are most of the AJB fans located?

    I've just been emailing delon64,
    who is the other AJB poster in the Korea-Japan
    area of the world.

    Are most of you in Britain?
  • OurManInJakartaOurManInJakarta Posts: 4MI6 Agent
    if i'm not cruising the gaming tables on the Riviera i'm here in jakarta, old boy. keeping the world safe for democracy :)
  • ourmaninBusanourmaninBusan Posts: 14MI6 Agent
    Wait a minute.
    I met a guy from Jakarta once.
    It was at that casino in Macau.
    What was it called.
    If I think of it I'll tell you.

    But there was a murder there the previous week
    or so. I sat down at the bar and saw some police
    talking to the bartender and such, and I asked
    if you were worried about being struck by a stray
    bullet.

    He said no, because they were mob hit men from
    the Triads, and they never miss. Those were the exact words -- "they never miss." So there was no danger from stray bullets or whatnot.

    That wouldn't be you, would it?
    It was the summer of '01, before all this terror business made traveling a nuisance.
  • ourmaninBusanourmaninBusan Posts: 14MI6 Agent
    The Lisbon! That's it!
    It's right on the main strip there.
    Were you there? I can't remember if we
    discussed the Riviera or not (never been)...
  • ilove pierceilove pierce Posts: 224MI6 Agent
    Interesting expeirience to go through. So what was the mob doing there and such?

  • OurManInJakartaOurManInJakarta Posts: 4MI6 Agent
    you remembered it incorrectly. "they never miss" was spoken by the bartender but he was simply quoting the police explanation why daylight assassinations of the triads were of no interest to law enforcement authorities. they never miss and thus are no danger to the general public (!).

    glad to know we're in good hands in macau.

    i'm brushing up on my mandarin for a trip to Beijing if i can't get to macau again. that's over by your neck of the woods. interested in meeting up?
  • ourmaninBusanourmaninBusan Posts: 14MI6 Agent
    Sounds like an idea...
    um, how do the Chinese authorities feel
    about casinos? One pictures the Red Guard
    of 1968 and doubts very highly whether
    Bond-emulators like us would fit in...
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    This is kewl, isnt it!? Well I'm feeling good, heading off to Lake Tahoe, California skiing in 1 week and 3 days, really does sound close! I can't wait!! I bought myself a new hat today, it's crazy!! It's black and has multicoloured spots and three long bits to it! I love it! Anyway I'm just thinking about an idea for our 1000th post, what should it be?! Who should it be by?

    I'm not quite sure what to make of this. Should I start Forum War 2?

    Tirpitz, having read your past few posts perhaps now would be an appropriate time to remove "AJB's wandering intellectual" from your signature.

    Forum War 2!? Are you kidding!? After all the work I did as the Random Chat Peacemaker!!?? :))

    Technically, it would be Forum War 4, since there were three Forum Wars since Random Chat started.
    Also, Jedi Master, you'll love California! I live just north of California, so I've been there a few times. It's beautiful! Make sure to send us a postcard! ;)

    Hey, I've got a good topic for discussion. This should make Matrix fans happy. ;)

    What if The Matrix actually existed, and all this is nothing but a simulation, but you didn't know it? What if Morpheus found you? Would you take the blue pill and wake up in your bed? Or would you take the red pill? Stay in Wonderland and find out how deep the rabbit hole goes? ;)

    If it were me, personally, I'd take the red pill. I'd like to find out the truth.
  • General_OurumovGeneral_Ourumov United KingdomPosts: 861MI6 Agent
    I think I would be... 'one of them'

    I'd much rather be one of the far better, and more sophisticated agents. Another reason for not wanting to join Morpheus - I'd have t see Trinity every five minutes or so, and that alone would be enough to make me sick... !! :)
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    Hmmm, yeah well I was wondering which pill to take until the good General pointed out that I would see Trinity every five minutes if I took the red pill, I think that settles it, hand me over that red pill and put the blue one somewhere most people daren't go!

    No forum wars thanks I'm ok!

    So who's buying the Matrix Revoloutions on Friday? I'm considering it! Depends how expensive and what thing I can get with it by pre booking really.

  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    Nah like i said im not either! Apart from anything the cover of the video and DvD is terrible! Oh well I'll buy it some day, its a damn good film after all, be it a little, no a huge amount confusing its still very good!

  • General_OurumovGeneral_Ourumov United KingdomPosts: 861MI6 Agent
    For the 1000th post, we should post a list of every member who has posted in the topic, and their number of posts, listing them in order..
  • Jedi MasterJedi Master UKPosts: 1,093MI6 Agent
    I would offer to do that but I'd make sooo many mistakes! I think you'd be best for that General after all I think this topics success is majorly down to you!! Of course if you don't have the time we'd have to find someone else! But I'm talking like we've decided and its final! What do you all think of that idea guys?
