Yes sorry, Shoque overwrote some shit by accident, he is sorting it out now….

Sorry guys, I have overwritten the index-file on the website.

This should be fixed in a few minutes.

Fixed.

Is there a 2013 Forum tee in the works, or has it been too busy to get to that yet?

Got to get rid of the 12's first…

^I took one last week, gotta count towards some 2013 discount no? Yeah…. probably not

speaking of the the 2012, can I wash the indigo as normal or will it run a lot? Thanks!

Giles

I would certainly wash it with dark colours only for a while…..

The indigo t will bleed like a pig (excuse the expression)…

tigerpac

lol fantastic - maybe I'll hand wash it in my spare (read: jeans washing) tub. Already has a hint of blue.

Technical People.

I bought a new PC today, to run our shipping applications (they don't run under MacOS hence needing a PC).

We got an HP with Windows 8, which only runs IE10. Yes, guess what, one of the shipping applications we use only runs on IE9 or earlier (no Chrome, no FireFox).

I am contemplating doing a dual boot set up so we can choose Windows 7 or Windows 8.

Anyone tried this, is it easy?

Help please, otherwise my bollocks will be history (Mme B is pacing up and down the room with shears in her hand)

tigerpac

Have heard it was easy to do, but haven't personally done it!

I've always run multiple (2-5) os's on my laptop at a time. It can be a bit of a pain, but it's doable.

I've always used different distros of linux and osx, but this guide seems to explain it fairly well for your situation…

You need to install windows 7 first and go from there though…

Alternatively have you thought about setting up a virtual machine to run windows 7? It would let you run windows 7 in a window without the need to restart and switch operating systems

If you have windows 8 pro or enterprise, it comes with the software to set this up, as seen in the last section of this article...

You'll need a relatively fast computer to virtualize though…

Also, if you can get away with using Internet Explorer 8 or below, just follow this to get xp up and running and do it from there…

Much easier than the other two options I gave...

Hope that helps G…

one last solution, in case none of the above work would be to dual boot one of your macs. I know it's not ideal as you probably got the HP for this purpose but it would work. The bootcamp utility is super easy to use…
