Re: Banana Pi

I only found out about Raspberry Pi yesterday and it looks like a lot of fun; some of the people on Denial think it's the modern day answer to the VIC-20, but at the moment I think it has more in common with the ZX-81.

Re: Problems connecting to Melon64

I had a similar problem last night. I could access the site, but every time I clicked on a thread it wouldn't load. I had the same problem with two different Linux distros and browsers (Wary Puppy + Seamonkey and LXLE (low spec version of Lubuntu) + Firefox).

Bigger fish to fry at the moment, but EasyFlash would definitely be on my hit list if I was in C= buying mode. It's not that expensive when you think…login to view the rest of this post

PC Build Updates

Some of you may remember that I started a thread on REMOVED about building a PC. The motherboard I bought went back and there have been a few changes since then. I decided to go for a budget build instead of future-proofing. It's my first build and if I'm going to make mistakes it's better to make t...
