I'm juggling a bored infant and a load of invoicing so need a quick fix and havent searched.

I want to fill my i-pod with as much music and comedy as possible this weekend. Amazon does very, very well out of me but want to find more obscure stuff, whats the simplest, easiest and most user friendly freebie site that works well with itunes?

anyone have any experience of them and could make a recommendation please? they all seem to get rather mixed reviews on Amazon and the like. ]]> Gaming and Software maguire http://www.arrse.co.uk/gaming-software/199046-virtual-railway-software.html Torch Media http://www.arrse.co.uk/gaming-software/198881-torch-media.html Thu, 16 May 2013 11:17:48 GMT Someone on here recommended this piece of shit.

Is anyone aware of an alternative product that does a really simple task like removing the background of a photo, which
is included in office 2010 but not 2007.
Ideally free, but very simple to use (not GIMP)

A bit more than a service pack, I think.

At least Microsoft are consistent with their business model i.e. every alternate Windows OS should be rubbish.

W95 - Poor
W98SE - OK
Millennium - Poor
XP - Good
Vista - Poor
W7 - OK
W8 - Poor

Perhaps they could break the mould if they did the unthinkable andstarted listening to their customers instead of foisting unwanted features and bloatware on them and abandoning the features that are popular. ]]> Gaming and Software Provost http://www.arrse.co.uk/gaming-software/198429-windows-8-turkey-its-official.html E3 2013 http://www.arrse.co.uk/gaming-software/198427-e3-2013-a.html Tue, 07 May 2013 09:10:19 GMT So, whose going to E3 this year? I'll be there in a professional capacity as HMG in its infinite wisdom considers my attendance at the world's premier video gaming trade show to be conducive to good business. I'll try not to enjoy myself too much while I fulfil a dream I've had since the age of 12, as clearly I need to represent the calm and professional face of the MOD while surrounded by models trying to sell me PS4s.

What are you looking forward to seeing at this year's show? What should I be keeping an eye out for and reporting back to the ARRSE gaming collective?

And what funky gizzits do you want me to bring back? If I get anything decent I might run a few small Hols4Heroes auctions :)

I have had the Roma Surrectum II mod for about a year and never had any issues with it but over the last couple of days it has started crashing during battles. Occasionally it doesn't happen and plays like normal but during most battles at some point it will cut to a blank screen with a 'Rome Total has stopped working' window popping up.

Any idea of what could be wrong and how to fix it or is this a complete un-install/re-install job?

It did make me wonder whether anyone could come up with a compelling reason to continue to use an email client?

Problem - I used the Windows briefcase to back up my documents from PC to external hard drive.
