    Wow, the DS IT expert awakens a really old thread. Why?

    Well if 5 years ago you could charge £10/hour with impunity surely that means that CM can charge £40-£50 per hour and that doesn't include his network access costs to here so he can get some answers for free

    Especially since Tahir2k has not posted anything on DS since 2007. Otherwise we could have asked him how much he ended up charging and is the computer still working OK.

    It might have been a happy ending but now we will never know.

    ...because "It depends on the time it took you to do the job." was the advice given to him on another thread.

    He is now desperate to impart his new found knowledge onto other members! :D

    Nearly all are animated gifs, there are a few non moving ones. Put it in place of 'roll eyes', don't like that one.

    Maybe display options were set to 'Beginning' in which case they go back to May 2001.

    So he then trawled through 5 years worth of posts? Believable. No, really.

    I wonder what this little button does ??

    But for someone who professes to being an IT expert expecting to earn serious money he should be able to spot some of the most basic problems
