I'd say credit card for large purchases, whether online or not. Here in UK that makes credit card company as equally responsible for things going faulty, e.g. If the retailer you bought your washing machine from goes bust, get repair/replacement paid by credit card company. It's more protection than simply fraud…

I thought that was mostly for parking and traffic law. Does it cover individual rights in terms of search, arrest etc?
And of course if David Cameron or the home Secretary don't like the decision of the EU court of human rights they just ignore it.
Anyone got a similar resource /list of rights for the UK?
What's your strict definition of programming language that makes JavaScript not one? Interpreted programming languages are still programming languages.
I was thinking the same before this article, especially although I was thinking with something like Trello instead of Google Calendar. Display my to do lists and clear them etc.
I use Launchy
I don't see the Metro interface at all myself. I can't remember the last time I even saw it.
That's how it works in 8.1, it will boot straight to desktop, I don't see the Metro interface at all. I can't remember the last time I even saw it.
Do you work for the NSA? Monitoring what I have and haven't used? :p
Thanks but I know how the start menu works rolls eyes on all win versions and even the charm bar. I still find them slower than just using Launchy. I've not missed it at all.
Personally I just use Launchy for loading any application.

You don't need an app to boot to desktop in 8.1.
Start menu? Even when I had 7 installed I didn't use the start menu, hugely inefficient and slow way of accessing things.
Not sure about Dream build but I did spend a lot on this build (I did use PCPartPicker to plan the build): http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/b/Ic0
What do you use for key remapping? I've previously remapped my caps lock to backspace (as in Colemak layout) but it reverted when I upgraded to Win 8.1, just not got around to remapping it again.
I need to replace my creaking laptop so this has come up again for me recently in terms of advice, but I'm thinking that 15" MBP is the way to go, I'm not sure I can get more portable than that since the bulk of my paid work is 3D real time/gaming development. I really don't think an Air or even 13" retina MBP is…
I used to be a hoarder, but pretty minimalist now. I don't keep the boxes to anything. I don't keep manuals either (on occasions, becoming rarer, they come with printed manuals). I pretty much throw away boxes straight away once I know something is working (tends to be within a couple of days). Any old stuff I sell I…
