best multi-engine search engine on the web - no arguments!
- Slashdot News
- The best in computing news, especially for anything related to Linux
- I read it every day :o)

Pages - A great site with all the latest technews, hardware guides,
and resources. This site is a must if you are considering buying any
hardware!
- Sunsite (UK)
- Whoever you are, this is the resource site for you! It mirrors hundreds,
if not thousands, of sites, including ftp.microsoft.com, ftp.cdrom.com,
www.telefragged.com and many, many more. It also contains *loads* of
computing tools, such as SDKs, kernels, etc... And, if you are on Ja.Net,
then the download speed will *AMAZE* you - 750KB/sec!
- JWD Ltd - A pretty
good web design company, here as a favour to a friend
Music & Video:
- Symposium
- One of the best new bands I've heard for a long time. Try out their
albums "Drink The Sunshine" and "On The Outside".
- Fun Lovin'
Criminals - The best US band of all time IMHO! This is their official
website, with loads of related stuff about the group. If you want the
lyrics to their debut album "Come Find Yourself", check out this
page :0)
- Lando's Stinking
Hole - If you are looking to get hold of Futurama episodes, then
this is THE place to go! All of season 1 is there, along with the latest
ones from season 2. If you are on ja.net, then let the downloads commence...!
PC Games:
- Half-Life - The game that beat all other 1st-person shooters into
the ground, with an amazing single-player game, and a brilliant multiplayer
game too, especially now that Valve
have incorporated Team
Fortress Classic into the game! Also check out Gearbox's
update pack: Opposing
Force - more weapons, more enemies, and you get to be one of the
marines!!
- Team Fortress 2 - Just check out the link below and
drool!
- SSI
- The creators of the highly challenging "General"
turn-based strategy games ie. Panzer General, Allied
General, Pacific General, Fantasy General, Star General,
Panzer General II, People's General, and the real-time
"Panzer Commander".
- Total
Annihilation - Cavedog have come up with a definite
C&C beater here, especially coz you can download new
units from their website!
- Killer
Quake Patch - If you are bored with Quake I, then try
out the Killer Quake Patch - over 20 new weapons
including guided missiles, nukes and fireball launchers,
plus other "useful" features such as helper bots (Cujo
and Zeus), radar, and teleports... unbelieveably good in
deathmatch!!
Other Useful Software:
- GRISoft's
AntiVirus Guard (AVG) - Now in version 6.0, this
anti-virus program is one of the best available. My
advice is to try it out, even if you've never heard of it
before! Trust me on this, as it's killed off ALL viruses
that have got onto my system, even Win32.CIH!
Fun Sites:

This site has a trick up its sleave - just click the link and watch
:o) - if the site don't load, use this
link.

quite a few good humour pages too!
