So I've heard... And as an ignorant, off-the-cuff statement, I wonder if South Africa is better off now than 20 years ago...


As an ex-South African, and having my mother-in-law here from SA for a visit, the conclusive answer to that question is: No. (It's actually worse!) :(

Have you checked with Ian Mapleson? His stuff is very clean and reasonably priced.

Each to their own... :D I loved mine...

Oh and well done on that collection, I'm very jealous!

So which system do you use most often?

There is no easter bunny :(


I would argue we need a new internet! :roll: With all the adds, shit video and pop-ups, it's just one big flippin' advertising cesspit.

I still believe to this day that if code was optimised and shitty routines weren't the norm things would run as well on 1/10th speed machines. Bring back the 90's!

I use Maya 2011, the only good thing that's happened since version 6 is the implementation of QT interface...the rest if bloat. (I also use AutoCAD 2010...It's all shit! What the hell has changed in 10 years?!)

I have little belief in Open Source, the principle is all very saintly, but for a daily desktop machine the hodge-podge of apps is just embarrassing. (Based on my ArchLinux experience)

Back to my beer!

If I hadn't blown £3000 restoring a vintage Vespa scooter I would have bought one of the 800Mhz Fuel specials he's got going! :D

I've only ever had good dealings with Ian.
