This is obviously a question for those who have some knowledge of both Pretoria and Johannesburg, or at least a bit about Gauteng. My question is, if you had to choose, where would you stay and why? I went to Pretoria for the first time in years yesterday and seriously liked it. It's so vast...

Who's getting one? I bought one from BT Games yesterday and I must say, I'm really impressed by this spiffy little thing. In fact, I've always admired Nintendo because, creatively, it's always been one step ahead of its fellow giant console developers. After having posted a rather excited...

HP wins. Why? Okay, so today I went looking to buy a new laptop and I came across an Alienware with the following specs: Intel Core i7 @ 2.0ghz 720G hard disk Ati Radeon HD 6870M GDDR5 1G 8G RAM Blue Ray player Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit Full HD LCD screen R20 000 Then I came across an HP...

Yesterday I became the not-so-proud owner of two traffic fines. One for R60 and another for R300. Thanks to my guardian angel these were not in Gauteng or any other major city or I would be sitting on about R2000 to pay. I would just like to know if anybody knows how I can go about cancelling...

I'm surprised that a thread hasn't been started about this already. (unless I'm missing something...) Anyway, so the first two games were yesterday. Honestly, I think SA did a great job with the opening ceremony. Sure, it wasn't quite the Beijing Olympics but for our standards I thought it was...

Or is it just me? It seems as though after the release, or development I should say, of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children, everything started to go a little downhill for the Final Fantasy series. I've enjoyed all of the Final Fantasies but only up to Final Fantasy X. Final Fantasy XII was...
