Hi,
Had to register again just to post this...
There's a message at the top of the screen for my old ID saying 'Read Only' and I can't post.
What is going on?
Cheers,
Bam

Hi All,
That's very sad.
I've been on the internet almost since it started. It always was (and still almost entirely is) a place where there is a free exchange of ideas and of people helping each other just because that is how they would like the world to be.
Where would any of you be without free browsers? Apache, PHP, MySQL, Java, Eclipse, GWT, Perl, Python...
You may well not have heard of them but they keep 90%+ of the web running, and all are free. There would be no web if the hundreds of thousands contributors had demanded cash rather than donate their time and expertise for the common good.
If you can't afford Windows, there's Linux. Then there's Flash, YouTube, Wikipedia, OpenOffice, all freeware or open source.
I know there are costs involved in running a web site like this, but there are free ways to do it, and there are ways to make money from a web site without blocking people who don't cough up. It doesn't seem right to ask people to pay to give advice. All is not equal, some take more than they give, but then to balance that, others give more than they take.
When you know nothing, you are given advice, when you have knowledge, you give back. That's my philosophy, anyway, and for that reason, it appears I don't fit in here.
If I had the money, I'd probably pay without another thought, but right now I don't have cash to spare. In a month's time, it will be a completely different story (which is why I can sit here and plan my future, but am unable to do much else).
Almost the entire web is free. Google aren't short of cash and their services (including hosting web sites) are completely gratis unless you need enterprise-level services. Facebook aren't doing too shabbily, either.
Well, I wish you all the best. Maybe I'll see you on the road somewhere. And we can have seven sentences with each other before you gag me and demand cash before you allow me to speak. :Sad:

I see from your web page that you charge £35 an hour for your computer services.

Hi Bam2 I UNDERSTAND YOUR ARGUMENT for free but I also understand the need to pay--indeed the site was free for about 3 yrs and we had all the arguments when fees were mentioned/started.Jim had to start subs simply because hosting became more expensive and time consuming (so I am told)It is not an extortionate sum to pay and you can very soon recoup your costs simply by either discounts or time saved by the funsters giving free advise as is in the spirit of free internet even though we pay the tenner.
You stand to gain a lot with your proposed project so it is in your own interests or you can spend the time searching hours for answers that take mins on here to get.We do not have many paid members to pay Jims wages to run the site -prob less than1500 so = 15 k now could/would you run one for that amount -To me if I ask info on one item per yr it would be worth a tenner :thumb: let alone the amusement I get from some

Terry, it used to be £12 when we first subscribed.. the membership fee's actually went down a couple years back.
