True..

*Tractorman wants a 6 core*

Thats not bloody bad at all, going to read some reviews

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7328 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:04:20 »

Â£700 - seems a lot to me...

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #7329 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:05:52 »

Not a bad price for me, though I just read some reviews..

The search goes on..

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7330 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:07:24 »

I think it will be a long one...

TFM, your quad core will probably be fine, I would guess that the requirements are referring to a standard single core processor, wait and see what VStep come back with on your thread.

Tractorman, forget overclocking, it will knacker your hardware.

Anyways, apart from all of that, how are we all today?

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #7332 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:11:52 »

I might see if I can get one built for me, I know some people

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7333 on:** July 19, 2010, 11:12:16 »

Thanks Clanky - lets hope so...

Pther then that I am ok thanks

TFM...

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7335 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:25:13 »

Yes...?

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #7336 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:27:27 »

If SSE supports multiple cores..

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7337 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:28:08 »

lets hope so, but yes...

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #7338 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:28:56 »

Our computers might be able to run SSE, I think.. Just been doing a little research

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7339 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:29:45 »

That is good news

--tractorman-- · « **Reply #7340 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:31:15 »

All we can do is hope

Here is my hope-list so far

SSE will work on my pc
There will be an incat
There will be ferries like the Pride of Dover or somethin like that

Hi Ferry Man,
As I suppose you are interested in ferries? (Don't know I came to this idea).

That is like asking Mr Kipling is he interested in cakes

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7345 on:** July 19, 2010, 13:56:10 »

Its not looking too hopeful for a lot of people...

However want a laugh...

What a bright username...?

Ah yes, I know LD/TEF all too well...

TEF is essentially a freight line. They sell passenger space, but it is not used musch, the 8-10 cars you saw is generally about right

I assume you were on the Ostend Spirit, which is the one brought in by LD. a lot of TEFs ships have been chartered out now, but they run strange timetables, with lots of ferries in Oostende laid up waiting for their scheduled sailing

Bulgaria is nice this time of year i imagine

Really? I thought things were ticking over in the martime industry.

What do you mean?

laganviking · « **Reply #7348 on:** July 19, 2010, 14:08:34 »

I imagine they are a tin of processed meat

I thought things were on the road, or seaway to recovery

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #7349 on:** July 19, 2010, 14:09:38 »

I think things are better, but TEF always has been a small time operation
