Yeah, throttled, who cares, heard enough about it.

Good news, I am starting the tutorials within the next couple days (not today as I only got 2 hours sleep - installing the adobe suite) and they will hopefully be uploaded on the 14th.

Telstra have also told me that they are fixing the disconnection problem (yay, not an Indian this time) and it should be done within the next 48 hours with possibilities of no internet for long periods of time - doesn’t matter, its slow as fuck anyway.

So that’s the good news, I also have something else I want to mention - HDX video will probably be up on the 14th too.

Follow the link and 2nd/3rd parts are posted as video responses, the links are under the video.

For specs on the HDX, click here, please note, this is not the old HD DVD version with 1680 x 1050, this is the new blu-ray with 1920 x 1200.

Features that I absolutely love:

Genuine Windows Vista Ultimate (64-bit) (wow, 64 bit is bloody fast, oh by the way, I haven’t really had any issues with Vista, I love it so far, and its so much more stable than XP on our old computer)
Intel Core 2 Extreme Processor X9000 (2.80GHz, 6MB L2 Cache, 800MHz FSB)

4GB DDR2 System Memory (2 Dimm)

500GB 5400RPM SATA Dual Hard Drive (250GB x 2) (5400 has been surprisingly faster than I thought)
Blu-Ray ROM with SuperMulti DVD+/-R/RW Double Layer (I can see two lasers, pointing lasers into eyes FTW j/k :p)
Integrated HP HDTV Hybrid TV Tuner and 4 Altec Lansing speakers +the HP Triple Bass Reflex subwoofer (OMG, the subwoofer is amazing, it’s even more powerful than my 3 inch sub from our old sourround sound speakers)

No.

It’s not.

Especially not when you have been trying for days and had numerous video takes to create a thank you video and then the computer stuffs up each time.

Well folks, I have decided that I am going to create the thank you video on the new computer which might come in as early as TOMORROW! *checks tracking*

It’s AWESOME! I can’t wait!*checks tracking again*

Sorry about the delay in YouTube video production, there will be plenty to come over the next few weeks! *checks tracking again again*

Any tutorial requests are welcome, but at the moment I have actually been flooded with requests, so I’ll try to do them in the order that I received them, but hey, the earlier you ask, the sooner the tutorial! *checks tracking again again again*

As you all know, my current computer SUCKS MONKEY BALLS… no, I’m serious, it really does O.O

Anyway, I have entered at notebooks.com to win an HP HDX “Dragon” Portable Desktop (it’s to big to be a laptop :P) I REALLY need a new computer and this machine is IDEAL!

ALL I need you to do is this, it’s very simple and takes 2 minutes - seriously, this will help me a heck of a lot, now don’t spam or sign up with multiple accounts and do this because your vote won’t be counted.

I have explained why I need this computer on this page: http://forums.notebooks.com/contests-free-stuff/2-notebooks-com-s-5-100-hp-hdx-dragon-notebook-contest-starts-now-8.html#post275

ALL I NEED YOU TO DO IS SIMPLY THIS:

Sign up for an account on the forums at NoteBooks.com, login and just reply to this link saying “I think ChrisTheFeral should win because…” and give a reason why, I need as many votes as possible but REMEMBER, ONE VOTE PER PERSON - I don’t want spam!

Thanks so much to those who help out, I will be making a thank you video and shout out to all the people who vote for me whether I win or not (I damn sure need it)

I have to go now - busy :p plus I have been throttled again
