    Can we go back to the first page and half of this thread and carry on like that... It's all got a bit sensible now. I've not laughed at a thread so much for some time.  #irrelevantposts

    got a mouse story,as well.

    plugged it into my new pc and i had no proper control over it for weeks.
    i thought it was due to the new 'anti-virus' software that i had had installed.
    and i was not a happy bunny as it was really hard work for me trying to play 10+ tables att.
    so borrowed a mouse from computer shop and it worked fine.
    whilst i was plugging this trial mouse in,i pushed my mouse connection thingy into the back of pc as far as i could also.
    my mouse has behaved himself beautifully ever since.  lols

    I think if you extracted the contents of my keyboard you would probably be able to reconstruct a whole packets of maryland cookies - YUMYUM!!!

    Yeah slight overkill with the keyboard. I'm still using a Memorex one I bought for about £6 years ago.

    I bought a replacement one when this started looking a little grubby. I tried the new one for about 5 minutes and swapped it back as the keys felt awful when typing.

    Logitech mice are great as Beaneh said. Much cheaper than going down the razer route.

    Gaming mousepads are good though. I use a hard plastic one that's got a slightly rough surface.

    His talking sense for once but if your gonna spend more then 200 then do it properly imo,  also i would rather have a i5 with an SSD then an i7 with HDD... buut thats just me and i dont think much sense.

    Build one yourself, do NOT buy one ready built from pc world etc they'll have your eyes out. You can have double the spec for the same money if you build your own. Watch a few of the tutorials on youtube on building a system, it's a lot easier than you think.

    Spec wise, you don't want anything less than an i5 / fx-8150 imo, if you've got i7 money you might as well go for it but its defo not nessesary. You want at least 8GB RAM, same again 16Gb if you've got the money. Also make sure you buy a good quality power supply. Most entry level graphics cards will run 20+ tables seamlessly and most will have two outputs (1xDVI, 1xVGA) for dual monitors if your decided to add another at a later date. As for harddrives any will do, preferably 500GB upwards.

    Check out ccl-online, their prices are very competitive. Hope this helps.

    I will be easy to beat then bolly.  After making 58 buy ins last month I think my game is working fine against the aggro fish.  I could knock your game but that's not my style.

    GL at the tables.

    Im pretty special so thank you for the respect.

    Never said you were bad, just said ur a very tight player, which was your criticism of Dontelmum ( irony for the win ).
