When did the TV companies switch to preferring the web for delivery?
I just noticed, nearly all the soaps and reality shows on TV have a short ad at the end saying "want to know what happens next? Watch tomorrow's episode now on our web site!"

Don't watch Soaps and Reality TV shows then. Once they get their hooks in you, you're a slave from 7pm to 9pm, Monday to Friday.

That's cool. I'm reliving the past with the MacOS 9 start up.

Nicola bought a book but didn't know I'd already read it. She contacted the Amazon seller who replied "we don't accept returns". We'll see about that!

I used to love Norton Utilities with Windows 95. An excellent app.

Surprisingly he replied once I'd made him aware of the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations but wants me to leave 5-star feedback before he agrees to a return. This guy is having a laugh!
