BT iPlayer Homehub issues 5:23pm on 28 May 2008 I had a home hub until I saw the light and switched my isp to one that could actually provide me with a stable and fast service. What has upset me though is that the BT Vision box will only work with BT Broadband. BTs own FAQs have stated, right back from when the service was announced, that there would be a firmware update to allow you to use it with any ISP. As it is, emails and calls go unanswered and myself, and many other people have a useless box sat in the cupboard. I understand the need for a tie in, after all the PVR is only £30 but once your contract has ended they should allow you to the use freeview/pvr functionality without BT Broadband.

AT LEAST update the bloody t+cs so people know that they won't be able to use the system should they leave
Will 7 prove deadly to Vista? 5:18pm on 28 May 2008 multitouch....

where have I seen that before?
Women and technology 4:14pm on 07 May 2008 I'm involved in STEM recruitment (in a technology based role) at a well respected University. Currently, about 34% of our faculties students are female. For engineering subjects this drops to 20%. However, across science subjects, which include biology, maths, computing and chemistry this jumps to 46% which is a pretty equal split.

In general, I don't believe males are given more opportunities to get into STEM subjects, simply, more CHOOSE to.

I certainly don't remember being given any preferential treatment when at school and I left there twelve years ago.
