Nah - in the event that more than one person gets it right, you are entered into an eliminating draw!
But to get there, you had to partake in the game of skill!

This made me chuckle. What does HP stand for? Happy Person's? Not really sure if you can have a happy grope, but hey, mear technicalities.

Good question - there's a lot of HP employees (me included) asking the same question.
Of course, there's been a lot of "HP" meanings, so of which:
1. Has Problems (could apply today?)
2. Hates People (at the time MH was firing everyone)
3. Have 'pad? (appropriate)
and my own personal favourite
4. Helpdesk Pathetic (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxSJZ5aGTTo)
and so on.
Of course the official meaning is "Hewlett-Packard" after the two guys who started the company.

Loving the tangent guys.
On a more serious note, does anybody have any supply info?
It looks unlikely that Raven is going to be able to get the tablet he mentioned for me. So I'm back hunting for one (i think?)

I think it's over tbh. Argos apparently got some more stock a couple of days ago buit kept it quiet, put it up at midnight and sold out 7minutes later (probably to staff wanting to sell on).
The only option now I think is to fork out £200+ on eBay
That was just a "glitch" on the Argos site, no one that ordered had their transaction honoured.I think it's over tbh. Argos apparently got some more stock a couple of days ago buit kept it quiet, put it up at midnight and sold out 7minutes later (probably to staff wanting to sell on).

Hmm, a glitch or them all being scooped up by employees? Contravertial stuff!

1) They failed to extend my orderUnlucky
2) I got lucky
3) I only got lucky getting lots of orders so that I could get my hopes up, then they could all be cancelled to make my life suck arse.
My mate managed to get one (I'm actually playing on it now - it's lush) but there isn't one for me.

My order is still on hold for the second one and I did chase today but no stock currently available.
