well optimistically i am hoping for post tommoro..

a replacement hard drive case to put my external sata in... word of advice, never buy a seagate external drive, usb port on mine went, within two months of purchase, and i am one of many many many thousands of people in the last 2 or 3 years... and seagate say its not warranty covered as its user misuse... (the port is held on by four miniscule bits of solder).. of course in finding that out youve opened the case and voided the warrantly..

personally, im sending seagate, the small bit of circuit board, the usb port to show the connection was pathetic and the bill for a new external case.. see what they say.. if they say no i will go small claims.. i dont care..

Recall notice from Toyota for brand-new car :(

Unsolicited junk mail offer to reserve my very own overpriced NFL Super Bowl patch

Unsolicited junk mail offer for Medicare supplement insurance, even though no one in this house is nearly old enough for Medicare yet

i really do think all you guys need to look at paperless billing/bank statements etc...

save the trees and all that.. the only thing we get in the way of bills by post is our once a year council tax bill.. the rest is electronic..

and saves having to shred documents as well

RE: paperless. I couldn't agree more. Especially when it comes to unwanted ad circulars. The inks they use have to be worse than the use of trees.

hehe, I signed on from the moment I opened this bank account... My bank statement/info envelope was, ironically, to confirm that I had gone paperless... :rolleyes:
