Things are changing for the better at bit-tech and today we've made the move to new offices located in the south of England. Want to see if Tim can finally organise his collection of graphics cards and how many things Joe dropped as we moved in? Of course you do!

Mr-IK · 1st Apr 2008, 07:33

So many CRT's.

Grats on the new crib though!

Tim S · 1st Apr 2008, 07:38

Yeah, there are still quite a few CRTs... we're using most of them for mobo testing. Graphics testing is nearly all done on TFTs now.

BioSniper · 1st Apr 2008, 07:39

Nice stuff.
Can I come to play? :P (I wont nick all the shiney stuff, honest)

Nice work guys, great to see things are going from strength to strength.. BTW if you look at the archive page of the original site, check out the Case Mod 2001 winner

lol your link got truncated. noob!

Jipa · 1st Apr 2008, 08:35

I'm surprised to see CRTs in there. No wonder moving was such a huge job!

Anyway good following years and keep up the good work! The only thing I miss from this announcement-news-thingadilly is that DO YOU HAVE A PROPER COFFEE MACHINE? I couldn't stand working with computers all day long without some proper coffee. (though now that I said it, you may also drink tea?)

Bindi.

And Bindi.

HugoB · 1st Apr 2008, 08:53

No fair, you weren't joking when you said your new office was nicer than ours at TR.... *******S!!

Bindibadgi · 1st Apr 2008, 08:56

Yea the sooner we get rid of the CRTs the better - more space. Unfortunately they do both high and low resolutions easily, unlike TFTs.

Jipa - our coffee machine was Hugo, but we left him with TR.

That should now be fixed. Site commenting was has been disabled since the server move (by being broken).

Th3Maverick · 1st Apr 2008, 09:10

Dude, nice new digs.

Nix · 1st Apr 2008, 09:19

Sucks that i didnt manage to get the job. Hopefully will be keeping in contact with Tim and who knows... maybe soon.

Cthippo · 1st Apr 2008, 09:19

You guys need to do an "average day at Bit HQ" feature, just to make us all jealous!

Nix · 1st Apr 2008, 09:24

Btw, everyone knows they put the geeks in closets or other window less rooms. Im currently sat in a fishbowl type room with windows all around me, but i still cant see any of the outside world. Just more offices and corridors :P
