ntpspe aye :) the only thing not to love is when you see him live, most of the time he just stands and nods his head, but hey, each to their own. And no i've never heard of them, should i? :P

ntpspe I constantly use my phone to access the internet. Being on an 'unlimited' (500mb) deal with O2, I use my phone more commonly than my computer some of the time! I downloaded the Opera Mini, and Opera Mobile browser for my phone, which gives an unparalleled...

ntpspe Facebook is a great way to keep in contact with friends, lost relatives, and meet new people over the internet. It facilitates mail, to drop a message for when they're back at their computer, and instant messaging, which which allows you to talk to them, and...

ntpspe Yes, Linux is very good for doing more advanced features, like networking or support. I work as an IT Systems Technician, in a windows based environment, but i have always made sure my machine is running ubuntu, because the amount of problems we get with the...

ntpspe Mac's are better in a lot of ways, but it depends what you're doing. Anything musical or artistic it is normally better to have a mac around, but for simple office work it's not worth it. Mac's are also getting Steam support now, so the latest games and...

ntpspe Well i have the Xbox360 arcade, and i must say, playing games on that (i think) are a lot easier for controls than on a computer (though i am fond of FPS' using the mouse and WASD keys :P But my Xbox outputs graphics the same as i've seen on high-end...

What type of bass do you prefer: active or passive? A little backgrounder for those who don't know the difference between the two. :) An active bass usually has an active preamp. This helps you shape the tone via an equalizer...

ntpspe Very good point's made there! A lot of the time it depends on the type of sound you're after. My Wesley bass is a passive one, and i've played anything from classic rock, to heavy metal and Muse in between. When I went to a guitar shop in Leeds (uk), I...

ntpspe That's quite a unique wedding you had there, and the fact everyone enjoyed it just goes to show, you don't need to have big and fancy, expensive weddings, especially seen as the main part of it is getting married and showing everybody your strong bond of love,...

ntpspe Sound's like you've played a huge variety of instruments there, very diverse! A lot of people would start off with Electric guitar (I wasn't allowed, parents saying they were too expensive) but it's nice to see people still using classical instruments as...

ntpspe Well a lot of people complain about instruments not made of wood, and have said to me that I wouldn't get a good tone out of a plexiglass instrument, but I'm actually pleasantly surprised with this one. It cost £80 directly online from the wesley website,...

ntpspe Nice to hear! I once had my own piano at my family home, we got it for £50 from a listing in the local paper, keep an eye out and anything can be found! :)

What would you rather have: a job that you love waking up to and actually look forward to going to everyday but pays really really low, or a job you absolutely hate, and dread to even talk about after a whole days worth of work...

ntpspe Very true, I wouldn't be able to cope with a family at the moment, but I know in the future I'd need to have plenty of money, and it does make it a harder choice. There are plenty of ways to get a well-paid job you enjoy, I've recently applied for some...

ntpspe Definately the first one I think. I'm currently working as an IT Systems Technician, which doesn't pay well, but I was enjoying it... till everything changed. Now I'm packing that job in and starting up on my own. I've always been told it's best to go for...

ntpspe Linux is also easy to use. If you want to install software, all you have to do is click, as most Distributions have their own software depositories, like on ubuntu, all you have to do is click 'install' on anything you want from the 'ubuntu marketplace' and...
