The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
Hey all, for the technical award this week we're going to ask you all to pick two or three things, and compare them against each other - with an overall score and rating etc.
It can be anything "technical", from web browsers, to mobile phones but please try and keep it relevant to Freeola or the Internet in some way. That means no articles on things like the best toaster, please :)
For the rules etc. please see this thread.
(Sorry if you have already started writing a technical post for this week, but you can always save it for next week instead ^_^)

Lets hope somebody doesn't do a Mac vs PC post! There may be a 'flame' war unleashed across the forums... That's unless its decided that PC's are superior for their cost and general ease of use (given that its a Windows machine)...
*awaits*
*awaits*
Macs should be seen but not used, hehe.
Ahh the ultimate discussion on computer forums returns :D
Simple way to end it in my eyes.....A MAC? Why would you want a computer that shares its name with a beefy treat sold by an American fast food chain?

Interesting. Maybe I can do something for this.

My tuppence worth for this week
Online Bingo
In the past Freeola did online bingo, it was brilliant fun and drew me to look at Freeolas web site on a daily basis. This was good for Freeola and good for me as it took me away from the other online bingo sites that I was addicted to!
Freeola dished out numbers at random and first to call house won a prize - but you had to interact with your computer as it did not just happen automatically this is a good thing.
One online bingo site that shall remain un named takes your money you join a game and sit back and the computers does all the work for you, its all very well and good if you do win ( not likley) but if you loose (often) then its very boring!
Freeolas bingo engaed you with your computer and taught you very valuable life skills like using your mouse etc and best of all it was free to Freeola subcribers
This Freeola bingo should be brought back online ASAP as it was the dogs biscuits.

Should be a post of it own really Digi though no? Maybe get a vote going ;)
Sorry for taking this thread in a completely different direction to the one it intended but.... following on from the MAC v PC discussion below:
Does anyone know why, whenever you see a laptop or PC on the TV or in films, the vast majority of times it's a MAC? Surely MAC can't have the advertising rights for all programs, even in the UK? Anyone got any ideas/theories as to why this is? it's been bugging me for years and if I find the answer then I might stop barking at the screen whenever it happens - or, more likely, I'll move on to something equally as pedantic.
