Its a new year and that means a new ESP Radio Show.  Talking about this years (well at least the next few months worth of)  up coming games, film, tv and technology.  To listen again use the link below (there is a small pause of 30 seconds about 10 mins into the listen again, where [...]

On Thursday, after the show Katie and I went to see avatar in IMAX 3D (yes thats how the pronounce it).  I have to say it lived up to the hype in everything except the story.  It is a beautifully stunning film to watch, colours popping out the screen, objects flying past the screen.  What I was really [...]

So I recently update the ram on the macbook and have increased it to 2Gb (ram prices at the mo are quite pricey).  I’m quite used to installing new hardware on a PC but this was the first time I had done it on a Mac and thought I would share some keypoints, wish I [...]

So do my bit for Movember (http://uk.movember.com/) I decided to shape my beard into a handle bar moustache for the occasion and also as you can see wear my Magnum PI t-shirt.  This look won't be staying and was only done for this special occasion, but the real question "What Do You Think?"
FYI, Katie [...]

So I have decided to put together a little Christmas list of things that I would like.  I don't think that I will end up getting any/all of the items but I like to think of this as a guide more than anything else:

Either 2Gb or 4Gb for my Macbook http://www.crucial.com/uk/systemscanner/viewscanbyid.aspx?id=667A4A4731D926C3
A new laptop bag http://bit.ly/7ICz1e
