Sorry, but Benny Hill did a sketch about the 'ASS out of U and ME' when I was a boy (70's) so credit goes to him rather than Mr Jackson.

Bit of a bummer if its not got bluetooth built in, but you should check it out another time just in case its lurking somewhere. Otherwise I'd say bluetooth you can buy them ready to install and use great ones on ebay at very low prices too!!

It was common place for laptops to have infrared before the dawn of bluetooth, but bluetooth has kind of left it redundanct as infra red was painstakingly slow and you had to have hte two objects in a straight line. As far as I know not many laptops have built in bluetooth, well not at the moment (although I might be wrong) but perhaps in the future, bearing in mind sony bought ericsson as to aquire the rights to bluetooth I would imagine and hope that soon their laptops will come with built in bluetooth devices.

Perhaps Sammiimmas is trapped in the past, just like in 'The Lake House' Movie:smileygrin:

Its nice to bring things up to date with those who dont know.

Afterall isnt this the very reason why the forum is here to help people with their technical probz whatever the year.

Totally, but the search engine should be used if you want to find older posts.

Then again it's a bit dodgy that search engine!

Did do initially kept bringing up old posts so then i used ascending/ descending button......still no luck as you noticed.

Oh well, thought it was a good topic regardless of how old it was, people still checking it out.
