  • What do they mean by: "perception of life?"?

    My mind has gone completely blank and I can't think for the God of me what the perception of life is, or could be, if many or one.

    Thank you!

  • What graphics card can you recommend for gaming and watching movies via a desktop?

    I'm looking at purchasing a desktop but the graphic card is only onboard integrated Intel HD graphics and I don't know if that's going to be enough to play games and watch movies on.

    I'm a bit of an idiot when it comes to computer specs so if you could help me.

  • Could you help me understand if this is a good computer?

    I'm interested in buying a second hand computer but specs aren't my thing, so if you could help me understand if it's worth the buy for £410 I'd be mighty thankful. If you think it is lacking in some areas could you specify and do you think there'd be a point in buying it and modifying a few things. I'm buying with the intent of using it for gaming.

For the performance of the pc, you'll get your moneys worth!

  • Out of these computers which is best for the price?

    I want a computer that can handle games excellently, great for videos, and just super fast speed. I don't want to be waiting for it to search, I want it to just do it.

    Which is the best out of the three, below, in performance for the cost (I'll be adding Windows 7 to it):

    1. iRush Pro V2

    2. iConquer V3

  • Is it right to win a bid on eBay then told you can't have it?

    I bought a DVD on eBay 9 days ago and I paid instantly. I knew it was a long dispatch time of about 10 days.

    Then I find about I have been refunded, completely on Friday.

    I just wanted to know if they're allowed to do this? And how long does a refund take to go back into my Paypal?

    (I paid by card, received an email from Paypal confirming a full refund).

  • What qualifications do I need to work with old people, in caring for them?

    I'm only 16 but I am looking at a career that involves caring for old people - such as cleaning their homes, shopping for them and helping them in general.

    What qualifications would be needed for this? If any?

    How do I get into this career as every job wants the person to have previous experience, which is something I have known of.

  • My laptop has an ExpressCard/54 - what does this mean, what is it?

    I've had my laptop for years and I've only just noticed the ExpressCard/54 on the side of it.

    What exactly is it for? Mine is just plastic black with four slots of different sized squares that look like cards fit in them.

    What's the benefit of having it? Does anything else go in there?

    Please use basic words and descriptions for me to best understand (No techy).

  • A "Complete Sherlock Holmes" book counts for all of his stories, short and long?

    I'm interested in buying this:

    http://www.waterstones.com/waterstonesweb/products...

    It's titled "The Penguin Complete Sherlock Collection" and it has 1136 pages. I'm wondering if that's enough pages to have all of his books on or whether it is enough. It's £11.53 and I'm only questioning because I think that's pretty cheap for such a great book.

  • When will Sherlock return for a series 3?

    Everything I've read has confirmed it's coming back but I just want to a specific date, or at least a round about one.

    I know that Freeman is busy with The Hobbit and Cumberbatch is busy with Star Trek so I know it will be a while but does anyone know of a date?

  • Can you over praise your dog?

    I took my puppy to his first puppy training class last night and the trainer seemed to be using a lot of treats to get the dogs to do a lot of things. I know dogs love treats but if they get too much then surely they wont be as special a treat if they only got it on the good occasion.

    Can you also overuse the term "good boy" or "good girl" when they do something right?

  • How old were you when you got your first car, how much did it cost, what was your first car?

    I'm coming to that age of being legal to drive and I have no clue on how much it costs for anything, other than a car. Of course there's the driving test costs to look into and how much insurance wise it would be for me.

    I'm interested in knowing how old you were when you got your first car and how much did it cost you to get driving!

    The best answer for 10 points will be the person who can answer my main questions the best:

    1. How much does the average driving test cost? And how long do they take to complete?

    2. How much would my insurance cost? (I would be 17 and have a current license for riding a moped, and I have had no accidents or points taken).

    3. How much would it realistically cost me to get on the road with everything included?

    Thank you!
