Technical was starting to get bogged down with PC problems rather than technical astronomy discussions. Fresh topics discussing computer, internet and other non-astronomical gadgetry can be discussed here. Astronomy Technical threads may be split out here if they start to become general.

Note, fanboi posts for Mac, Windows, Linux will be given a short sharp blow with the moderating stick as wielded by the either the Adminstrators or the two moderators for this board Mike and Mac.

Mac

Hey, nice addition. ;)

Mac.

Dam, i thought i was going to get to do my first move. :cry:

Ian

Rick and I have been thinking about this for a while, it seems to make sense.

*Note to all*
Please make post titles relevant and specific please :)

All you need to do now is move all the PC related topics form the Technical Board and rename them appropriately  :twisted:

Great idea... suppose it would be checky if I asked for a central heating board as well..... :-)

John

Ian

John, once central heating related posts start to swamp the rest of the posts in a forum, I'll gladly set one up for you ;)

Please note, nothing in the above statement constitutes a challenge... :D

Hmmm

I've shifted a few of the most obvious candidates...

Thanks Rick, I asked Ian but he said he couldn't be bothered  :roll:

Then he said you would do it because you have nothing else to do all day  :(

I'd go and bash him if I were you  :twisted:

Damned good idea.

Maybe it will stop other threads being hijacked all the time ;)

yeah OK perhaps I was being a bit optimistic.
