    I'm Joseph Fritzl and no Windows was my idea.
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    Enter your reg number now, at we buy any car dot com

    Edit: i've just been on webuyanycar.com and entered my reg number, and it is shocking

    They're offering £70 for an S reg Clio 1.2 with full history and everything spic and span

    And if that isn't bad enough, in the small print on the email that they sent:

    "An administration fee applies on the purchase of the vehicle. Based on a purchase price of £70, a fee of £49.99 including VAT would apply."

    So they would actually only give me £20 for a spotless car?

    Jeez, i knew the were ripoff merchants, but seriously, would anyone jump for that price?

    Jon entered the reg for my old L reg Clio just before we scrapped it, they refused to price it

    They offered £150 for for my T reg Brava

    As for those i'm a PC adverts, I just see everyone making that claim as delusional

    I like shelley's idea that all PC users are delusional.

    The problem with computer adverts is they are all bad, these in comparison to the "i'm a mac and i'm a pc" things are a veritable pleasure the whole family should enjoy.

    If only they had thought of using CGI meerkats.

    My thoughts exactly. I have no problem with the idea. They're not half as smug and self righteous as Apple ads, and I'm a loyal Linux user so have no particular affinity to MS.
