Re: What laptop should I get?
The budget does allow to buy new. There's 3 new laptops in my shortlist. ;) As a user experience I think Windows has gone downhill since 7. Especially bearing in mind that the competition in Linux has moved on nicely over the last 10 years... I don’t like Windows and avoid it as much as possible bu...

Re: What laptop should I get?
I've added a poll and edited the first post - for my list of leading contenders :epopc: :think: My answer has to be “I haven’t a clue”. The best experience I had with a Windows computer was a Dell but that had a corporate build copy of Windows 7 Pro. I know Windows has improved massively since then...

Re: I have joined the mainstream
This hobby is not important to me anymore so I guess it doesn't matter as long as you enjoy the music. I never really saw Hi-Fi as a hobby, I just wanted to listen to music. Ultimately my main system was chosen because it had a remote control. Is the frequency response of that remote control accura...

Re: Royd A7
Thanks, sounds like the way to go. I was kind of hoping that Dr Bunsen might drop by and point out that Joe Ackroyd was a genius and always mounted dust-caps askew, then smeared them all over with milky gunk (his being a genius and all). I am sorry to tell you that unfortunately “Dr Bunsen” won’t b...

Re: Royd A7

These are small, inexpensive speakers (as yo...
