    A huge thanks to UKAPS :)

    I think you guys are better at this than me - I only lurked for a few months and then had to join to ask why my Java fern was yellow! @alto - you made me LOL at the memory of Mr. Evans killing it with his tanks but bizarrely unable to turn his rotala red!

    What happened to JamesC

    That really is too bad and a great shame. Back in the mists of time it was his algae page http://www.theplantedtank.co.uk/algae.htm (together with every post ever made by CEG) that saved me on multiple occasions. He also did an excellent lighting color guide where he tested all the different...

    Software/format for company brochure

    Thanks Dan, compared to paying someone else to do it this seems to be the best way. Its worth waiting for CS4 in November I presume? Interesting its only $699 in the US and nearly twice as much here. I guess the cheapest way to get it is to get an old version (that supports Wintel Mac) 2nd...

    new Mac ultra thin notebook

    I got my wife a MacBook a year ago for her work. It was the first time she has ever wanted to unwrap and set up a computer herself :shock: The MacBook price is very competative against an equivalent spec windows laptop. Its chic. I get no frustrated/desparate PC support calls at work. It...

    New job

    Boring commute or boring job - choose the boring commute - 35 mins isn't so bad (but unlucky, when I lived in Bristol I never had more than 20 mins to travel). Since you are an IT contractor you should go by rate, contact length and what looks better on the CV + you should honour your...

    List of top 10 recent posts/threads?

    In the meantime people can try the RSS feed - you can do this from an RSS reader or in my case I set up a homepage on my.yahoo.com and I have the top BBC headlines, a couple of work related feeds, cinema listing and the weather I have and the last 10 updates on ukaps complete with how many...
