   I'm from Christchurch which is about 100km away. Felt like a long rocking boat ride. Luckily it wasn't violent, unlike our 6.3 quake in 2011 which accelerated the city vertical by a foot, dumped it down and smashed everything.

   Agree, most AV's get in the way of doing their job and are intrusive. As a developer we from time to time have problems with false positives or clashes with some AV's, so the customer gets annoyed and we have to contact the AV to

   Agree. Struggled with an Epson business inkjet for years and gained some pleasure from smashing it up in the end. Replaced with a Brother color laser and it was ridiculously easy to setup (I was expecting some pain) and works really nicely.

    I think it's good to make another browser. Trying to improve on existing things benefits everyone. Just downloaded it, it's got some nice touches I've not seen in other browsers.

    I've always found ASUS laptops well built, great screens and very reliable. Their Zen books are nice.

    I did a couple of months and quite liked it. Couple of downsides/notes. 1. I do a lot of sport (sprints/track & Field) and it's no good for the dynamic sports as I found out. Energy from fat explosive events because the

    Yeha, I'm a bit dumbfounded about the calling of the fire dept, the reaction and so on. I would have just figured out where it was coming from and cleaned it up myself with some gloves and a dustpan.

    This is correct. Our payment provider GlobalCollect has passed us on a court ruling from Netherlands to state we don't need to pay any VAT since we're not physically there, even though we do sell there. A lot of payment processors
