    PS3 - Is there still NTSC and PAL difference

    Hmm but will the colour be any different if you bought it from US? I really hate NTSC compared to PAL colour so that's important to me. Anyone tried importing? Is it the same or is it in NTSC colour?

    Re: How helpful is a laptop at university? hahahahaha :) To Evilo: Yeah, you're right, I've since realized the $500 was in America with no Australian delivery. However, I might be able to purchase a cheap brand new macbook from my school which has some sort of partnership with Apple. The...

    Best Console Ever

PS3 comes next, I've got one however until better games come out my top 2 votes stay with Xbox and PS2 N64 comes after Then PS1...

    Youth Allowance

    Hi guys. This might be the wrong section, I apologise if it is. However, I am in a family that is unfortunate enough to be placed just within the income bracket for me not to be eligible for youth allowance. Being so, really don't know much about it or how people are eligible because I've never...

    Laptops for Uni

    Re: How helpful is a laptop at university? Sorry if my message got misinterpreted. I do not plan to buy a laptop till 2010, but I DO plan to save up and I was wondering how much I should save up. But come to think of it, with $500 by 2010 any laptop would do the job plus more. Good point from...

    Year 11 Preliminary Practical?

    I've since handed in that practical, and am awaiting my mark. On another note, my skills in writing Scientific Reports are a bit below standard. Could someone please tell me, should the average Conclusion include just one sentence, or should it be longer? What should I write in it that I haven't...

    preparing to leave for aus, hows the weather in sydney???

    I would say its going to be getting colder from now on. So make sure you bring some warm clothes, yet take some cool clothes as well. You should be fine with inbetween clothes from now on though, I don't think we'll be getting many hot days.

    Subject Selection

    Okay, another question. After reading a 2006 UAI booklet online, I'm under the impression that UAI is based on your percentile ranking. Therefore, the common misconception is that doing Standard English rather than Advanced can boost your UAI because you are beating all the people who can't do...

    Subject Selection

    My dilemna here is that most things I apply myself in I tend to get over 90% in, and I don't really enjoy any subject XD. Well thanks for everything, I'm no longer confused and can feel confident choosing those subjects next year :D
