True. For most users, the registry is completely unimportant. As I said, unless you have a specific reason to be messin with it, don't touch it. It causes a lot of hassle

Not necessarily true. I've had XP crash on me a few times over the past month or so I've had it installed on my PC. OS X runs on top of a bsd kernel and hence it's never crashed on the 2 years I've been running it on my iMac at home.

Well there isn't a "proper" solution really. It's what you said, essentially

The correct syntax is just [ math ] x^2 [ /math ] (without the spaces). If you use the $, it will display it as text since the expression is already surrounded by a \begin{display} thing. It's all at the top of the article.

If you did it over the first 1 km then you get a rough idea of how hard it would be with only a small amount of atmosphere and an (approximately) constant density. Or use some kind of average density.

Transmitter circuits are a bit more complicated than the receiver circuits as well.

Better software and a bit more support for things like midi interfaces from what I've gathered. Apple has some a very nice audio program called Soundtrack, and although I've not tried it, the reviews of it seem good.

rofl There's other things that you can do like hiding drives in My Computer, removing Recycle Bin from the desktop, etc.

Yes, a mixture of (a) socialising and (b) too much work tends to lead to not very much sleep at all.

(moved to the Microbiology forum, since the topic is Microbiology )

We don't use $ as the symbol operator. We use [ math ] and [ /math ] ( without the spaces).

Wait until you get to uni

A simple AM radio is pretty cheap in terms of components, although if you want a fairly decent crystal radio you're gonna have to get stuck into some of the electronics a bit. I've found the easiest way to get involved and stuck in is to buy some of the 100-in-1 electronics kits where they have a bunch of stuff from integrated circuits to simple transistors etc that you can attach to eachother by using small bits of wire. They're great fun, cheap, and you can build a lot simple electronic circuits with them.

As I've said before, the quality of posting on here is second to none. I doubt they'd assume that we were all like him and accept that there's always going to be a few muppets hanging around.

Damn, that's a long time without sleep. I've done it for 3 and been completely dead, don't know how they did it tbh.

A lot of the windows settings (and settings for lots of other programs) are stored in the registry, and it's possible to tweak some here and there to enable certain features (it's what programs like TweakXP do). Also if you're going to program something that uses the registry, you need to have a little bit of a mess around before you start doing things with it.

I'm thinking of smaller scale rockets tbh (mainly because it's so hard to store liquid oxygen in a small rocket), but I obviously didn't make that clear, sorry about that.

Well I think we're all safely assured that ExtraSense is a crackpot tbh, but yes, someone of great intellect probably would be thinking that.

Hasn't got one on there that I can see; there is one for the longest a person has been in a coma, which is 37 years, 111 days.

Hopefully it'll be someone like ExtraSense

I think the last part is probably the best (my only advice to people in the UK is to just check you can do this without doing it, otherwise if something goes wrong, you'll be footing a rather large bill)

What operating system are you using? What version of IE are you trying to upgrade to and which do you currently have?
