Supposedly they break really easily. Some sort of design flaw.

No they don't. Some people break the glass back though and that is pretty damn tough.

Bought this for $6 earlier, hoping it's a good watch.

Bought Saints Row: The Third off a Steam sale for €7 the other day.

Steam sales are pretty much the modern equivalent of the bargain bin, isn't it?

Funny, I just got one on Ebay thanks to a helpful chap in the sports discussion forum.

Let me know how they are, played a demo of the game but still not decided about it. Heard good things about the bracelet, but does it actually work well?
Could be my next purchases if so

It works well but you will need to calibrate it as it is a bit short on steps. The sleep tracking and alerts on it are superb though. There are also a few different options but apparently the Fitbit is offering much of the same but without the looks. All in all it was worth the £99 for me.

It's basically a lifestyle tracker. It tracks food, sleep and active periods 24/7. It also finds trends in your day to day life from what it tracks. You can add "team mates" as well but I haven't used that. It is supposedly the better one between the Fitbit, this and the Nike shit thing.

I found a shit ton of Pokemon doubles I had in an old cupboard and I don't have any proper bookmarks because I'm not a massive fag so it seemed like the best thing to do. I was going to use a psychic energy one, but I didn't want it to use dream eater on me.

Does anyone know how to fix font rendering errors on Windows 8? I've downloaded the latest graphics driver for AMD and I've turned ClearType on, but the fonts look abysmal, especially on the Metro interface. After five minutes, even on Firefox and Chrome, the fonts look unreadable.

Have you tried one out? Been thinking about getting one for a while, but worried it might be little more than an expensive bangle.

Without wanting to sound like a cunt, don't use Windows 8. On tablets, it's fine. On PCs it's a massive ball ache. If you can, I'd highly recommend rolling back to Windows 7. It just works better as an operating system, most of the bugs are ironed out, it looks nicer, you can actually install shit on it, it's more user friendly. We would've had a lot less calls from people trying to work from home this year if Windows 8 hadn't happened. We also wouldn't have to say "there is nothing we can do, Windows 8 just won't let you use the software".

The best thing I can suggest doing is messing with your DPI settings if you can. If that was happening to me, I'd just reinstall Windows tbh. I'd resinstall Windows 8 once more, maybe twice, and if the same shit happened I'd go back to 7.

Aye Windows 8 is good, I've never had any problems with it, touch wood I don't think it has ever so much as frozen on me which is more than can be said for W7.
I downloaded start menu 8 to enable the old style menu in the bottom left corner, the exclusion of which was my only gripe with W8.
