On a related note: Public Liability Insurance is up again this month. Ouch. My wallet is going to take a while recovering from that sting

My car insurance went up before Christmas because of my points It'll probably go up by three times as much if anything happens with this latest infraction (see top of serious discussion forum).

 

LOL!! I work in the support department for IBM...and well the newer Thinkpads seem to be ok...BUT (there is always a but) the previous gen TPs are not worthy of being purchased...they break, really easy...

Just saying...

 

After reading the thread about mechanical keyboards I'm keen to try one out, but the prices these things go for even on ebay is INSANE.

 

It really is worth it! Even if you have to sell it on they really retain their value not that it will come to that! I am now addicted and will ve buying a third next week

Technically I didn't buy it but my wife did and she included me in the booking for a weeks all inclusive holiday to the Dreams Resort & Spa in Tulum, Mexico. Not until June but already I can't wait!

Will need another holiday after the Paralympics as I work for a well known telecommunications company in the UK who are providing the telecommunications infrastructure for the London Olympics and we're going to be a little busy for a few months this summer.
