Quote: I used to play Lemmings on my Sony Ericcson P800 smart phone. This was in 2002, a full 5 years before Apple invented them.
I played Lemmings on a PC, years before that. It sounds like Apple may have been the last to the party, certainly not the first. Originally developed for the Amiga in '91!

Yeah, I think Amiga was where I first had it.
I worked wonderfully on that P800 though, I was wasting hours messing around on my phone years before everyone else.
Talking of which anyone remember what you did when having a sh*t before the invention of the smartphone?
It also had an app (I don't think they were called apps yet) that used the IR sender / receiver as a universal remote control, also lots of fun.

Sounds like "P800" was apposite?

I've told the story on here before then. Hope the details didn't differ to much from what I've just put above.

Not too bad[^]
The previous telling was in response to a previous incarnation of you I see.

You oviously need a job where you have to work on Saturdays, to take some of that excessive time off your hands.

Mark,
Things are ramping down here. I retire in 12 weeks and I'm pretty much keeping the seat warm until then!

Lemme make a note of that.
12... weeks... until... Phil... goes... completely... daft.
OK.
What were we talking about?

I used it for a couple of years, a couple of months ago I switched back to Firefox proper. I never had any issues or problems with it. Can't recall why I moved to Firefox, but it wasn't because of an problem. Seems like I wanted to use the sync feature of Firefox to sync my bookmarks and IceDragon wouldn't let me.

I used their Internet Security program before, and it was about 45% false positives (it even detected itself as a virus!) Still not as bad as Norton, though.

Your computing equipment is obviously so overrun with virus activity that every exe is a virus. You must be running windows. 
Yes, I'm kidding. Interesting that it detected itself.

I tried it a few years ago, when it first came out and installed itself on one of my machines without asking for permission to do so.
It crashed every time I tried to open it, so I removed both it and everything else from comodo.

There was a place in CP where one could create a kind of product page (with name, description and link) for some code he made...
I did so for one of my Visual Studio extensions (a free minifier tool)...Now I updated the tool but can't find the place...
Any idea what I'm talking about?

Do you mean Free Tools[^]?

No. It was part of my member page side bar...

Free Tools is a good place to advertise my tool?

It's not a "high traffic" forum, so probably not.
Perhaps an article or tip?

I already wrote about Visual Studio extensions (and accidentally deleted a big one that summarized all the possible ways - with samples - to extend VS) so I think there is not much left there for me...
It's a very useful tool for web developers an I made it even better, but no tip me think...

Workspaces? I don't think it lasted too long...unless it's still here and I'm just that aloof! Probably the latter!
