Lol remember when it was a cool thing when you could change the network logo to your name or something else I also found a old 7600 & want to get it fixed think the screen is bust, any places you reckon can still do it?

Ya it is crap. Maybe the cop would have tried to use the same principal of parking near a crossing, i.e. no parking within 15mtrs of the zig zag area, therefore the entire area should be considered as a crossing? The traffic laws work out in funny ways in this place we call home. For example if you hit a pedestrian regardless of them being on a crossing or not, its your fault. So your damned either way.

Thought it came preloaded? Or you can use Open Office http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/

Think you might be able to get a newer one (i5) for that price from HK, definitely from the States. http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/shop_mac/family/macbook_pro?aid=AIC-WWW-NAUS-K2-BUYNOW-MACBOOKPRO-INDEX&cp=BUYNOW-MACBOOKPRO

Didn't it get mediocre reviews?

There is a guy in my office who has one. Just played around with it a bit. Didn't find it too appealing since I used a E71/72 sometime back.

Some say he has a red cape

Ya, that's the one that Miniace shot from his sky ride, which moved the topic onto can they do 100kmph+

I would like to know as well.

With the hike in the price of electricity it won't be that cheap either..

How the heck are we supposed to generate more exports with the cost of production going up?

Well it was inevitable but the hike like the fuel is crazy - Electricity fuel adjustment charges were increased a short while ago by the Public Utilities Commission,its Chairman Jayatissa De Costa announced at a media briefing in Colombo. Accordingly the first 30 units will be raised by 25 percent,from 31-60 units by 35 percent and over 60 units by 40 per cent,he explained. The adjustments are made in line with the recent fuel price hikes,he added. http://www.nation.lk/edition/latest-top-stories/item/2719-electricity-rates-up.html

Whats the power consumption on these? Would it be cheaper than running a regular water pump on a tube well?

Anyone reckon the price of Diesel rides will come down?

I think the Land Cruiser 200/202 does about 4-5kmpl.

Ya that fine print really does matter though we never pay much attention to it

I had a problem like this when I had a old Mazda 323. Full tank went down like someone was gulping down a pint. Popped the hood to check for something else as well, turned out to be a fuel squirting out from one of the carb hoses. Talk about a close shave..

So full insurance covers 'everything/value'?

Yep most people get a bit heavy footed & burn excess fuel. Even in traffic if you can keep a slight momentum going, rather than go-stop-go all the time, will improve your consumption.

Why is the E01 an exception to what the insurance covers?

Seriously?

Machan you can pay online using the VIC number (thats on the card stuck into the decoder), its cheaper than using the so called 'local agents'. Downside is sometimes their stupid site doesnt process your payment & keeps rejecting it. I have a friend in India so he pays it for me.

Sure beats Lonely Planet

Agreed, this is a load of BS.

Yep they do, heard that it was about 5k? Not sure.
