i left my job as i was getting underpaid and have since become self employed working from home. i didnt say it would out perform a 360 or ps3. i just dont like using controllers and i want win XP.

also i didnt say i was going to use anything from this old dell pc.

not that it matters anymore, 5 numbers and the bonus won me 150k saturday.

have a nice day.

Like? Any ATI card I've had has been easy as pie... And I've had a few. There is a lot of people out there with that opinion, much like people who blast AMD chips. Odd really, ATI/AMD should be your mfr of choice with such a small budget :confused:

How did you become a Fire Fighter HAz?

Passed my application
passed physical
passed medical
passed interview
passed all the training courses

My heart was in the job and ive always wanted to do it!
It helps to have a good sense of humour and be easy to get on with!
Also being physical fit and switched on helps a lot.

Were u generally interested in how one gets into such job, or were u taking the ****?
 
I rang my local head office and asked for an application form. Ring up and ask for one they may be taking on retained which most stations are in this country. Its a good job but can take up your life, i think of it as more of an inconvenient hobby at times.
