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

    • JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      JetBrains launches Rider 2026.2 EAP 5, bringing several AI improvements by David Uzondu JetBrains has released the fifth EAP version of Rider 2026.2, bringing a faster startup flow with the new non-modal startup screen and quality-check hooks for Claude Code and Codex. In the latest EAP release, Rider now has newly bundled "quality-check" hooks that run background tests on code edits before the external agent proceeds. For example, after Claude Code rewrites a class, Rider immediately triggers a PostToolUse hook that analyzes the code for syntax errors and formatting warnings. It then passes those findings back to the model as feedback, allowing the agent to fix its own output before finalizing the task. If Rider detects compilation errors, the IDE prevents the agent from treating the task as complete, while minor formatting warnings simply help guide the model toward better output. The "Explain with AI" feature can now tackle tricky build errors directly from the console, helping .NET developers who frequently wrestle with multi-targeting failures and MSBuild errors. JetBrains introduced Explain with AI back in the 2024.1 release cycle. With this feature, instead of forcing developers to copy long diagnostics into a separate chat window, Rider now lets you trigger these explanations directly from the error source. In similar EAP news, JetBrains recently opened the first EAP for IntelliJ IDEA 2026.2, with features that appeal to both those who are into AI-assisted coding and those who prefer "classic" manual development. For manual developers, the release adds revamped dependency completion for Maven and Gradle build scripts, which pulls data directly from the local cache to suggest relevant versions. It also brings the Spring Debugger update, displaying security indicators next to endpoints to visualize secured routes during runtime. In addition to database migration tools for Flyway and Liquibase, this build introduces a Hibernate debugger that shows the exact SQL or HQL queries that the framework plans to execute, letting developers jump directly to the Java code that triggered them.
