I know Luke ..he did call me to see if I had your number as he was just passing my place. Its a shame as his new car is like a little rocket. Gregs face was a picture as they went screaming past the pub

...... and the car of the month winner was well deserved after all the work that has recently been done. Well done Greg and Nat

We will be doing a BBQ next month for definte as well ...wont we Pete

And it was great to hear that Liverpool won as well

Ricky, just realised I have a wireless access point at home gathering dust. I think it's a linksys WAP55AG, we used it for six months or so.

Dabs retail them at £70 inc VAT, yours for £35 if you want it

Excellent, £200 delivery ok with you ??? <- only kidding.

I would recommend you get some Wireless G cards from the same manufacturer (linksys) for your desktops.
Any wireless G card for your PDA should be ok, best would be linksys, but not sure they make them.

For the desktops, you are probably going to have to get a PCI card, or, a PCI adapter in which you slot a PCMCIA (notebook style) card.

Ricky, that looks the ticket m8, but I cannot guarantee it'll go in your pc, that depends on how up to date it is

I'll PM you my MSN so we can chat off line if you want.
