6 days in Moscow :). I've put together a trip for my Dad's 60th birthday visiting various Space Program sights (Star City, Mission Control, Energia factory, Space Museum, Laika monument etc.). He's been to all the places in the US but never though to visit the Russian stuff (No one does tours and as I'm finding it is very difficult to arrange yourself :p).

Also going to squeeze in Red square, Lenin, St. Basils and checkout some of the fancier Metro stations.

edit: Also squeezing a couple of days in Transnistria in on the way there, a very interesting place if you haven't heard of it before.
Cool, sounds like a great plan! I'm still yet to go to Moscow, I know loads of Russians (in fact the guy sitting next to me right now is from Omsk) and they all say how bad Moscow is but there is a lot of cool stuff if you're just visiting.
Easyjet are going there from Gatwick for cheap so that may get me off my arse and go there :)

I've heard from a lot of people that a couple of days is enough but we've got a stack of more niche sights that we want to visit so should hopefully be ok! Also I can just about order food and drink and get directions in Russian so that should hopefully get around the infamous un-helpfulness of Muscovites!

I saw those easyjet flights, fantastic value! Also I can speak from experience on the easyjet's other medium haul flights (London<>Amman) that there is a tad more leg room on these longer flights.
 
:D

Good thing it's a only a temporary one then.;)

I've had both the X4 and X6, and they're shockingly bad, as are the official drivers (they had crazy response lag).

I'm in love with my mechanical keyboard after using sidewinders :p
 
Wanting to dump my x4 soon the arm rest is horrific for comfort and cleaning. Cant justify mechanical and dont wan to go back to logitech :(
 
Excellent choice!
Got one last year and was blown away with the difference compared to my on-board sound.
Quite happy with even top end headphones too.

It's very easy for any standalone card from Creative/Asus to beat onboard but the real difference with cards like the STX is when you plug in headphones to them and everything just comes alive :)

Ordered some snow foam, requested a cat and mouse be drawn on the box... good effort :p

I have a few new bits. :)

Also not included in this picture is a Dell U2412M & Corsair 650D case.

Nice buy. Seeing a picture like this makes me want to build a meaty machine.

I'm too far up Apples backside to have a Windows machine at home though :p
 
Found a £10 note on the street today (no one was around and it was a quiet road so I couldn't really hand it in!), so have enough cash (poverty student time) to be able to buy a MP3 player. (sansa clip+) Should be here in a few days.

Should compliment my Nokia 100 phone nicely and make commuting and running a bit more fun. :)
