Is there anyone who has recently had lens replacements done to their eyes , i am particularly interested to hear from someone who had the multifocal lenses implanted.I am having my eyes done in September and have to make a choice between single vision and multi vision lenses so i am very interested ...

I bought a Microsoft Sidewinder X6 keyboard in November 2011 and after three months all the most frequently used keys the letters rubbed off leaving just red dots and although the keyboard carries a 12 month guarantee the place where i purchased it from would not swap it out( BT Games) so i contacte...

Sorry, I tried not to. Really, I did.

LOL enjoy at my expence

BT games have the X6 on special for R399. Can't beat that price for what you are getting. Excellent build quality and the backlit keys are awesome for those late night/early moring gaming sessions. @animal where did you read about the special on the X6,I went to BT Games in Centurion and Pretoria t...

@ Jonboy, one of the ways magazines learn about some of our views about the mag is when we complain. It is of the utmost importance to any publication, to know what their readers want, even if, due to sales and various other reasons, they cannot provide the content some readers would like to see. I...

The X4/X6 is the business. I am searching for a keyboard that has backlit keys for me to use in fairly dim conditions. It need not be a gaming keyboard although I do a bit of gaming and as, don't laugh, it must not be too expensive as I have a parrot that is rather partial to keyboards.Was looking ...

When reviewing games please please tell us what genre ALL the games are not only a certain few.

Does anyone know about a place where one can still find " Left 4 Dead" for PC.Googled and sent emails but seems this game is no longer available?

A very nice reply that Naughty thanks that sorts out all my question.

a standalone or internal is a far better approach than a pointless piece of outdated console kit... my standalone connects wirelessly and alerts with OS/firmware updates, plays music/movies/pictures and connects seamlessly with my htpc... i fail to see why i would need that extraneous excuse for an ...

So a console with no immediate replacement in sight which consists of a locked in set of hardware is better? If you cant see several obvious reasons why a PC loses to a PS3 as your primary blu-ray player and vicariously as a part of your home theater/entertainment setup then please sit quietly in t...

It's still a brilliant media hub - streaming, Vidzone, iplayer, music visualisers, photo viewer - all for free, as well as the video store and.... erm... Blu-Ray ! So don't you guys think the PlayStation will be a better proposition for the lounge and then a blue ray recorder for the PC in your Stud...

If new features and capabilities are released then a device like the PS3 would be able to make use of them, whereas an older BD player wouldn't. A perfect example of this is 3D content, which can be played by a PS3, but not all BD players as far as I know. That was my exact thoughts as well when sp...

The function that especial grabs my attention is the capability of having to be able to download firmware updates,witch makes it more future proof than a standalone player and also the capability to upgrade the hard drive to a bigger size should the need arise.

I have been sitting on my PC the whole day already researching this subject and have got nowhere as there are so many for and just as many against. The the best thing going for the PlayStation is the ability to download new firmware, that stand alone blue-ray players do not have, and also the built-...

[quote="naughty"]okay - i wear very strong glasses and i have tried the 3D glasses on top of those many times since 3D has been introduced - it isnt totally uncomfortable and is okay even though it seemed cumbersome the first time around but you get used to it - well when i find a 3D set t...

[quote="Screeper"]I coughed up some cash for one of the Game specials today. http://www.game.co.za/RapidCat/game/rsa/pages/page-3.jpg Got the top one on the page. The Samsung 46" LED 5 series... From what I can tell it's a good price. Googled the model last night and the prices ranged...

seems like too that the Tv will work well enough for what you need it for - but personally i would still research into those new ones .... i dont know much about them now but by the time they are released here i expect to have done my research into whether they are worth it or not I totally agree wi...

The TV for what the misses wants will mainly for watching ordinary TV and a occasional movie or two so it need not be all that fully specked the only problem is, I phoned Game and the set does not come with any 3D glasses which one has to buy separate.Game does not sell these glasses,so would have t...

i have no idea how good that TV is that you are asking about but i do know that the price drops are due to the fact that Samsungs newest and latest models are being launched in the next two weeks The Queen of the house needs a TV in study to watch her dvd's and thought it would suite her needs,if s...

In the latest game brochure they are advertising a Samsung 40" 3D LED television model no AU40C7000 for R9999 seems a heck of a good price, is it a good proposition to buy, any comments and inputs please.

It is now six days and still recipients of my emails with pictures in the body receive blank squares where the pictures must be and still no replies from google.

This is definitely related.

I did google this subject and apparently there are thousands of people all over the world having similar problems but I cannot anywhere find advice of how to fix it on the net.
