Replacement Fractal R3 case arrived Friday, just checked it today, it's even more broken than the one I sent back after delivery, the front door won't even stay in place as EVERY connection has sheared off
Not happy, been over a month since the original delivery now

On the hair issue, I shave my head and take a pair of scissors to the eyebrows - my body seems to think I require the hair of one of those old Tory MPs

Just seen a poster ad for Niquitin patches (to help you stop smoking).
The ad says 'Niquitin patches contain more nicotine than any other patch'
er....

http://www.asa.org.uk/ASA-action/Adjudi ... 49597.aspxNot sure if this should be in win or fail, but I found this one first. At long bloody last someone has told the high end mains cable brigade to take a hike about their advertising. This is a good thing. Russ Andrews is a pile of fail.

That makes sense when you consider that a substantial amount of their sales come from airport-based stores...

Just copied a load of videos onto my super-duper amazing super-phone, only to find I can't play them with any player I can find...
I just want to be able to watch subtitled animé while driving through the school rush. Is that too much to ask?

A few years ago a lot of the adverts for the NRT products were more about getting your nicotine fix rather than giving up. Theres a very lucrative market there for people who dont want to quit but cant smoke say at work, airports etc.
