Computers / Re: Windows Xp Vs. Windows Vista by dejavus: 8:48pm On Apr 13, 2009
Most of the issues addressed in vista has been solved especially if you have SP1 installed, however you need a decent amount of RAM to run it effectively. Vista address security issue a lot better than XP. regarding gaming I have vista on my desktop and I am a serious PC/Console gamer. I have 6GB of RAMand ve been using Vista Ultimate for over 2 years now and I wouldnt go back to XP if my life depends on it. If you have to use vista, you can look online for some version of vista that has been trimed down so all the unnecessary bits and bob has been removed and its even less memory hungry than XP.

Phones / Re: Iphone Or SideKick, Which One Is More Reliable? by dejavus: 7:37pm On Apr 13, 2009
Maybe you should consider the HTC touch HD, it takes everything you through at it, plus the screen size is superb. you get office mobile, adobe acrobat reader, winrar etc. you can have as many email as you like, yahoo, gmail, msn, live etc. plus it also makes tea and coffee. grin
Religion / Re: The Important Of Fasting To Muslim by dejavus: 9:41am On Sep 19, 2007
Answers to your questions.

1, Ramadan is the name of the Muslims' fasting month. Ramadan comes approximately every 11.5 months (10 to 12 days earlier every year, because the Muslim month is 29 days except for Ramadan which could be 29 or 30, and February in the normal calendar is almost always 28 days while the other months are usually 30 to 31 days such as July). So fasting could occur during the summer and during the winter.

2, The Wisdom behind fasting is to develop self-restraint, feel for the poor, and to fully appreciate Allah Almighty's Holy Gifts to us here on earth from food, drinks and daily comfort.

3, Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar. It is during this month that Muslims observe the Fast of Ramadan.

Hope you are satisfied.
