You can get the ENTIRE paper delivered, to your door, every day, for how many years with 2300 Euros? :D
- Wowfunhappy 6y agoYou forgot to add in the cost of paying someone to quietly replace the paper on your wall before you wake up each morning.
- paxys 6y agoAnd the price is just for the display. The paper itself is extra :P

- berkes 6y ago> In Netherlands Off-topic, but it really is `the Netherlands`; not unlike "the United Kingdom". As Dutchmen myself, I too often see software doing this wrong, which is why I mention it here; in dropdowns, validations, invoices etc. When you design a "country dropdown", its `the Netherlands`, and it comes after `Nepal` and before `Netherlands Antilles`, and it should be highlighted when someone types `net`. Often one can "solve" the sorting by moving the `the` to the back: `Netherlands, the`, `United Kingdom, the`, though that's a bit of a hack more than an actual solution.
- OJFord 6y agoAt least you don't have to guess whether you're filed under 'UK', 'England', or 'Great Britain' four times (USB-style) before you find it. (Yes it is usually UK, but often enough isn't to be annoying. There are legitimate reasons you might want to be more specific, but IME it seems to happen just at random, based on where the developer got a 'countries list', I suppose.) Not to mention when UK sites, or sites that already know I'm in the UK, give me an otherwise alphabetised list with 'United States' at the top, and then even when I start typing 'Uni' make me go through UAE first...
- torgard 6y agoIf we're playing the small-gripes-game, well at least yours is actually listed! Unlike the Faroe Islands, which are frequently missing. Okay not that much these days, but it still happens sometimes! I could probably pick Denmark instead, but then my package would most likely never be delivered.
- OJFord 6y agoThat doesn't sound like a small gripe! What do you do, if it does mean it wouldn't be delivered? You just can't order from a lot of places, and if it's something that matters enough you hassle them about it? Egh, yeah, I don't envy you!
