Nice. How does one become a casino inspector anyway? Do you mean you really work for the Inland Revenue or something?

Well start by phoning your local casino and ask if theres any training schools opening soon,once u pass the 6 months training on all casino games u then need to spend around 2 years gaining experiance (like wow) then if your good enough the managment will review you and perhaps promoting you

Standard Casino dealers are on around £20k a year
Casino inspector are on £24k a year

Btw guys are the 5870 and the Gtx 295's a big upgrade from the 9800 Gx2???

I just went back and had a look at some GTX 260(192) / GTX 280 reviews, and I remember now that the 9800GX2 is a great card. In most games it beats the GTX 280, which is now pretty much equivalent to the GTX 275. So, to be honest it's not going to be an earth-shattering leap. However, you will get a solid 30% FPS boost if you get the 5870. Also the 5870 will give you much higher minimum framerates (often the most important and noticeable) and consume much less power and put out much less power.

If you are considering getting the GTX295, then I suggest just waiting for the month - the 5870X2 is incoming and looks like it will cost around the same as the GTX 295 and blow it's performance out of the water.
