    Oh yes!

    If I worked out how long I've waited in for bits for this system - times the hours by my rate of pay at work. I could buy the system again I reckon

    I ordered some bits for my new computer on Wednesday expecting them all to be here on Friday. Yet only City-Link manage to get my case here while Amtrak claim the driver couldn’t find my house.

    So like Howard I have to wait till Monday. I was really looking forward to putting it together aswell.

    Especially when its those dips from Citylink.
