    Home Office Monitor

    Similar situation. Recently upgraded from a 10 year old 22" TN panel and purchased the same monitor (albeit the DC version as I wanted USB-C) and have been very happy with it for office use. From memory, the Ultrasharp at the same price point was poorly reviewed so I went for the P27. USB hub...

    M1 Macbook Pro - USB C hub recommendation

    Bought a "Satechi" one off Amazon - figured if Apple are selling that brand through their store then they can't be too bad. I've been very happy so far. Prices are all over the place though, and the market is saturated with these things so it's a minefield. I bought the one I've got for £30...

    Potential scam

    Correct :) Yea I've seen a few pitch up over the past few months. There were some in Bradley Stoke for ages and then a whole village of caravans appeared in a park near me a few months back. Well sounds like I wasn't being too cynical in my concern at least. I'll just have to stay alert I...

    Potential scam

    Had a group of (what seemed like) travellers knock on the door earlier saying they had accidentally 'crashed' their drone in my back garden. I back onto a park so it didn't seem too suspect. Anyway I went and retrieved said drone and handed it back. Didn't hear anything more. However it got...

    So this has started happening with 9.0.2. Bit glitchy!

    OSX El Capitan

    Would be interested in hearing how this runs on a Core2 Macbook. Not sure whether to go for this or call it a day at Yosemite, which is still fairly usable.

    iPhone 6s & 6s Plus Thread

    What's the foreign SIM card stuff about? Would I be able to use a foreign SIM card in an Apple-bought phone?

    iPhone 6s & 6s Plus Thread

    Haven't bought a new phone since 2010 (still rocking an original HTC Desire) - thinking of picking up a 6S. What's the deal with screen protectors these days? Are they still recommended for standard pocket use?

    Buying a second hand iPhone 6 on gumtree

    Doesn't sound worth the potential hassle. iPhone 6S will be here in a week. Why don't you pick one up then on MM when they will be going like hot cakes.

    Dealer Warranty

    Looking at the gunk coming out of the fuel filter they removed, I would say not!

    Dealer Warranty

    Well damn! Now I feel pretty fortunate. Took the Golf down to a local VW indy as I wasn't happy with the tracking after a suspension fix. Had a good chat about the chain while I was there. Two of them took it out for a drive separately and both said it sounded fine. Although apparently it was...

    Dealer Warranty

    I bought the car on 65k and have done 1k since then. But the noise surfaced within the first 100 miles or so. I didn't think much of it until the garage mentioned it last week. I was under the impression that the chain and tensioner should be good for the lifetime of the car, and so couldn't...

    Dealer Warranty

    I picked up a used Mk5 Golf from a local trader a couple of months ago, which came with a 3 month 'MBI warranty on engine and gearbox'. While getting some work done last week, I was told that from the sound of the engine on startup it was likely my timing chain/tensioner had gone and would need...

    Bluetooth lag in Yosemite

    Has anyone noticed since installing Yosemite that audio played through a bluetooth device will start to lag behind actual Mac activity (e.g. volume changes) over time, and will steadily get worse? The problem seems to be exacerbated by doing other tasks on the Mac while the bluetooth...

    Trouble with online retailer

    This one is generally the best priced for what I need, and I've never really had a bad experienced before. Just seems like I've got stuck with someone who doesn't really understand customer service. I don't like unnecessarily burning bridges though. Unfortunately, lumbering a large box to the...

    Trouble with online retailer

    I ordered some new road bike wheels from an online sports retailer last week, for a couple of rides I have coming up at the end of the month. Long story short, the box that was delivered contained a bike display stand! Obviously a little unimpressed, I emailed and explained the issue. I...
