      I was being somewhat ironic, but you've reminded me of good times.

      When I was about 18 myself and one of my mates used to spend our hungover Sundays driving around Tralee following the goths that used to sit around looking glum with MMMBop blaring out of the car.

      Rather childish really, but very much fun and a great excuse to listen to Hanson (whose later stuff is actually well worth checking out believe it or not).

          The King of Rock and Soul Solomon Burke Died today

          I was privileged to see him play in Vicar Street a few years ago and it was undoubtedly one of the best gigs I was ever at. RIP

            check the actual tasks and see which ones are hogging the memory. if they're non system tasks and you don't need the application, end the process. if they're system tasks, check if they're essential or not. clean up your start up menu also, as a lot of the time you'll start processes which you don't need at all.

                        obviously you have alot of things running that you don't need
                        is go into the startup menu uncheck all the programme boxes and then restrat your computer and the ones that are needed will automatically start and all the rest won't, simples

                        it might not work for you as i tried this on lappie using XL, and iam running vista, and alot of the stuff didn't start for him like his wireless and bluetooth and a few other things, but easy to find these in the menu and check them anyhow

                          www.ccleaner.com is a great bit of software. It's especially good if your PC takes a long time to boot up, or if the disk keeps chugging long after your desktop has loaded. Run that and see if it helps. Also run msconfig and untick all the programs set to load and startup that you don't need. Makes a big difference.

I was being offered cash for it within a few minutes of putting on my head! I know what I'm dressing up as for Halloween this year

                                      Open your start menu and type msconfig, in the window that pops up go into the start up tab and remove everything that doesn't look important, which'll be most of it. Anything you're not sure of, googling the filename will tell you what it does. Also remember anything you remove can be ticked back on in seconds, so no matter what stops working no permanent damage will be caused because you can just retick the files, even after the restart it'll make you do

                                        better brag would have been to bag one of the themed promo girls imo.

                                            ya see I was just saying the other night how blokes never ever grow up (this was my defence) more proof.

                                              This is a good website that you can use in conjunction with msconfig.
                                              http://www.sysinfo.org/startuplist.php
                                              It has a list of 10000+ programs which might be on your startup programs, and explains their purpose and whether they might be needed or you can remove them from startup.

                                              Lots of stupid programs hog your machine at startup - some editor or downloader or videoplayer that you might use twice a year can be spending 20 seconds looking for upgrades every single time you boot up.

                                                          They are not your typical English Morse/Frost crime books. They'd be much more similar to the Harry Bosch books in their dark tone, with the lead detective a total fcuk-up in real life, and the London police force he's a part of being hugely inefficient and corrupt.

                                                          The first of the novels has been filmed and debuts on Sky1 tonight.

                                                            The real big difference its probably all about personal choice, Downtown picked himself up a pretty sweet Toshiba laptop the other week for about €600 and said he is very happy with it. The cheapest Macbook you can get is €1150 but it really is some piece of kit but there is no need to splash out but if you can dont just take my opinion on it do a little bit of research and do some good comparisons for both Mac/PC and then make up your mind unless you suffer impulse buying

I doubt I'll ever get sick of that movie, it is close to perfection for what it is.

It's probably worth getting rid of most of the Toshiba programs installed. I know when I did a fresh install of windows, Toshiba Tempro was the only piece of their crapware I reinstalled.
                                                                                                                      I assume you've already used disk cleanup, and defagmented it? 30% to 40% ram usage, should not be a concern imo.
