It takes too much in my opinion. I have to learn pathology and pathophysiology from pdfs. It is very annoying. I could print them, but it would take ours to print all of it and would cost too much ~ 4-5000 pages.

I've spent a couple of years now in college reading about that

Fortunately I finished anatomy already, but I love Gray's anatomy for it's pictures :D . The other book is much worse. It is the new Harrison's. Now that is something I call an "Oh my God, I can't read it because it has too small letters" book.

By the way, I want to be cook nowadays... my head is full with my finals...

Oh and I forgot this baby to show - it glows in blue inside when turned on

Slight update from me with my Dell Studio XPS. Upgraded RAM to 6GB (although you can't actually see that :p) and got new 2.4ghz dell wireless multimedia keyboard and logitech mx6200. New key + mouse are very nice to use but they don't look as cool as the bluetooth set, guess you can't have everything.

Where can you get that keyboard from seperately. From the Dell store all I've seen is the basic keyboard (Without the fancy circle on it) or that keyboard with a mouse combo.

Its this one here - http://search.dell.co.uk/1/2/2147-uk-irish...-black-kit.html

You have to buy it with the mouse, but the mouse is crap so I just chucked it in my spares box and bought a logitech mx620. Keyboard is outstandingly good, its the best I have ever ever typed on. I had the bluetooth set before ( http://search.dell.co.uk/1/2/9001-uk-irela...oard-mouse.html ) and this is deffinetely a good improvement.

The basic multimedia keyboard http://search.dell.co.uk/1/2/2146-dell-uk-...yboard-kit.html looks similar but it isnt anywhere near as good to type on, and as you pointed out lacks the fancy volume control.

The propereitary one that gets supplied with the xps one (not available seperetely on the dell site) is also very good.

Quick shot comparing all three (basic multimedia top, my one middle, xps one bottom):

Well it was notably the palm rest I was after but that's good enough thanks. I'm after a Wireless Keyboard considering my Mouse is quite new and I have a Sidewinder (Original) and I'm happy with that. I found that I drain the battery way too fast on wired mice anyway and I don't have the money to go out and buy a new one anyway (I only got the SW recently for Xmas too) so don't whine at me about getting the Mamba :p

    • Signal accuses UK government of using child safety as cover for mass surveillance

      By freedonX · Posted

      When I was a teen, I actually believed that the government used to be always be the bad guy. However as an adult, someone who has actually seen the Law work (though not perfect). I now think everyone cries a river. In this specific case, the so called freedom has consequences to society. Anyone who has seen how child are indeed affected, and I don't mean only extreme things like getting drugs or hate crimen , but no one can deny society as a whole has gone down a rabbit hole due to exesive use of internet. Before anyone calls out that it's the parents responsibility. Yes that's true, but the reality your family/kids might be good people. There are 99% out there who are not and have been brain dead by many things on the internet.
