government spending 17 billion a year on IT spending ?

17 billion a year ? with 5.8 million public sector workers ? probably higher depends on how that is measured ? that means the uk tax paying population spent £2931.00 on every public sector employee to provide them with technology per year ? this is obscene !

“the cost of a single Department of Health contract with Microsoft had been negotiated down from £82m to £8m during the process.” wtf ! this is why having our own software and It industry was an imperative and why margaret thatcher destroyed that future with her ignorance , leaving us at the mercy of american corporations ?

A8 countrys to get uk benefits ?

is this government out of its tiny little F-ing Mind !!!!!!
the benefits system is agreeably overloaded and bloated and there now extending it to more foreign people ! our national debt is 4.8 trilion, and this they think they have to do because of the fucking european system is again meddling with and fucking our democracy and sovereignty.
cameron grab your balls and realise you can ignore anything the euro parliament tells you if its not in the uks democratic interest.

the hard working young poor who dont claim benefits in this country and any other european country are now fucked by migrancy of all and sundry and may as well go and jump off a cliff, you are to make them compete against and culturally genocide them with every fucker in europe. cameron you are a fucking class idiot without any comprehension as to what it is to live in this country.

US v UK mac pro 4 core refurbished price differential

lets ignore new and just look at what 4 core refurbished macpros cost between US and UK.

4 core nehalem 2.66 macpro US refurbished :
2,039.00 USD = 1,254.63 GBP

4 core nehalem 2.88 macpro UK refurbished :
1,735.00 GBP = 2,819.58 USD

these machines are completely out of whack ? both in the US and the UK theyre pricing themselves too high but the translation in price across the pond is just nuts, they need to make a cheaper case design, and start putting something other than xeons in these machines, because these are not recession linked mac desktops ?

its like £480 cheaper in the states and thats refurb and its still 1735 pounds for a base machine ? i swear theyre trying to kill the macpro line off buy making it too expensive ?

uk price new :
base price for the cheapest 4 core new macpro based on old nehalem 2.8ghz £2,041.00 !!!!!
for a 4 core westmere £2,859.00 !!! wtf !

us price new :
base price for the cheapest 4 core new macpro based on old nehalem 2.8ghz $2,499.00
for a 4 core westmere $3,499.00 !!! wtf !

aigh dunno buying a desktop mac is now out of most peoples league. steve get a grip you to ives.

renderfarms 4 – 6 – 8 – 12 core systems

due to intels pricing model and artificial deliberate market segmentation and lack of competition, intel will not produce dual processor boards for i3/i5/i7 chips, though this be fully within the realm of possibility. This is so they can reserve the concept of 8 – 12 core machines for server level only, if they wanted intel could produce a dual processor i5 2600k, which could then evidentially be clocked at 5ghz yielding 40ghz in a single box/machine very usefull for render farms and those who currently need as much power as they can get, there is no reason apart from pricing models why this machine could not be built for under a grand, but technology companys want to make as much money as possible, so they drip feed change into the market at their own pace, because amd and intel together are not providing enough market competition to make such a machine possible, it would be more likely for amd to offer a cheap 12 core system than intel if it were to happen. though its probably possible to build a dual processor opteron system cheaper, once you look into pricing a dual processor xeon or opteron system you begin to realise a mac pro though expensive is a reasonably priced system compared to doing it yourself.

it would currently and probably for the near future be more cost effective when building a render farm to buy quad i5 2600k’s and overclock them to 5ghz or single 6 core phenom systems, than buy or build any 8 or 12 core systems, purely from a pounds per gigahertz render-farm perspective.

we were spending £7.8billion on foreign aid ?

labour until youre refounded never darken my door.

to think of the state some of the poorest people in this country to live in, most unable to afford homes, especially those not claiming, those who are waiting for their finances to improve before having children. The poverty of their education the enshrining and encouragement of their ignorance, and all this neglect of natives so that tax revenues can be spent helping foreign people out. I mean £7.8 billion where are the spare tax revenues floating around to wash away on this, I think a 4.8 trillion national debt says otherwise ?

you cant try to stamp out all destitution, it will somehow still exist, the universe abhors order ? some of these men are triumphs of wrecks, and they need help, some people you can put in a house , and they will stilll find theyre way back to the street, simple as. theres a girl been outside my supermarket for 12 years who i know quite well and help a little, shes been through all sort of drug rehabilitation, special courses, rehoused she still comes back to that same spot one way or another. and she still cracks a smile better than i can ? life hasn’t beaten you till your dead

re some apple fanboy

hmm you trolling or what, ive been using macs since the day of the Apple II . the Mac pro is the most expensive least upgradeable computer in the world ? powerfull most certainly, but server level processors make it inordinately expensive, and why dont you just throw in a new graphics card in a mac pro, oh sorry thats extremely unlikely to work ?, your power supply dies, well thats not standard and a total **** to swap over oh well, upgrade cooling and overclocking? no, hackintoshs are more practical, ask my £2500 dual G5 that dies for no good reaon after 3 years and is too expensive repair, i suggest you go poor more money into steves account because he loves apple fanboys like you, he pats you on the head and unzips his fly.
