    13" or 11" i7

    That is as much as I shall narrow down Personally I'd probably get the 13" for the nicer resolution (I just can't work with something with that low resolution - even on an 11 inch screen - I like large resolutions ).
    11" has better density though. So it'd be clearly even though smaller in size.

    It's more the amount of things I want to see on screen, rather than pixel density.

    If the website has to put a notable amount of effort into making it work with a browser more than 3/4 years old, why shouldn't that cost be passed onto the customers that cant be bothered/don't upgrade?

    Great news! My desktop is running even smoother now that I've given it moar RAM memories. :sexface:

    In less good news... I now have a Blackberry for work... I'm still reading emails at 12:55AM In related news, Blackberry OS is ****. I've never had one before and they've given me quite a swish Bold, but it's just so clunky and unintuitive.

    Looking very 'Macbook Pro' but decently priced for what it is!
    So confused for a few seconds. "Hundred thousand euros!?" :sigh:

    I summon the mighty Spanish Waffle for some headphone advice :ahee:
    =P

    Basically, I want some new headphones, bluetooth ones (wireless obviously lol). Budget = £30 or under. I can stretch to 35 quid but 40 is a bit too far. Also, the headband thingy, must be a proper headband, not one of those flimsy type, which I had before (God, I hated them -.-).
    I was thinking this.

    Any other suggestions or are those fine? :dontknow:

    Y'know, I think the Sound and Vision subforum is getting lonely.

    Welcome to hell. I hate BBOS. It's terrible in every way.

    My first venture into smartphones was a Blackberry. On a two-year contract. Needless to say I got rid of it before the end of the contract...

    Re: Tech Society 3.0
    Hi, I have another nooby question

    Is array[x][y] (where x and y refer to the row and column, natch) the correct way to refer to a particular 'cell' of a 2D array (this is for the Arduino, so it should be pretty much C++). There's this one function in my code which uses 2D arrays and it keeps overflowing, even at the first calculation! :cry:

    Edit: I think I've got it! I was treating the numbers like row and cell numbers, but I think I should use consecutive numbers, all my 2D arrays are only 2x2.

    arrA B
    C D


    Is this correct: A = arr[0], B = arr[1], C = arr[2], D = arr[3]?

    In fact, I'll just turn my 2D arrays into 1D ones

    It really depends how you visualise it, however I've heard that the "proper" way to see 2D arrays is as an array of arrays, so a 2D array [2][2] long would look a bit like this...

    Makes sense :yep:

    But I still couldn't get it to work. I think the problem is even earlier in my function than where the 2D arrays are! So I've had to abandon that section, again... and for the last time. :dong:
