Probably a rival trying to discredit the competition. Not sure I feel particularly swung to one side or the other (YJ). I'm a fence sitter until either of them can convince me otherwise. :C Drawings n' that

No not reverse spam, nor a competitor. I am an engineer in the construction industry - well, actually now a business development manager. The laptop I refer to is for home use, and the company I work for are one of the leaders in control systems for smoke control. We use rechargeable batteries by the thousand, all be it of the size and type used in motobikes and cars - sealed lead acid that we buy in and build into our control panels. These last for 5 years by the way and cost a fraction of a laptop battery and are pretty low tech compared to laptop batteries I guess. Prior to this I was an automotive engineer. Sorry to disappoint you. No I posted because I am furious, and like many engineers can be a bit obsessive, and this one really got my goat!

I was going to stick up for you because I didn't see anything other than you recommending OEM parts. And welcome, one of these fine chaps will be around to offer you tea shortly. ---------------------------------------------------- Windows 8 - We hate it in the pants - and panties!

Thanks, don't mind if I do. nice place you have here. Though it's very extensive. Seems to cover pretty much everything interesting, much over my head (the construction industry is about 20-30 years behind, say, the automotive in my experience.

<makes hudsville a nice cup of builder's tea> Bout a pint of milk in it and 19 sugars? It's not as busy as it used to be, round here. A combination of no natural source of new users and the rise of the social networks and stuff means we have a kinda slow puncture. But yeah, it's a nice diverse place. Just post about anything you're interested in and ignore the rest. And never mention RAID. Or vans. , , , , , , , , , , `' (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) (o,o) \ \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) \|)__) ''`>-,--”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---”-”---- ,'.*''`

You make a fine cuppa. Hope you'll all excuse my manners - never sure if I should dunk my rich tea biscuits but I'll do my best not to make any gaffs. Last time I saw RAID and van in the same sentence was when we were commissioning a school in Hackney. Don't know if the caught the blighters. Seems more pleasant here than FB etc. I'll have a look around - thanks for the warm welcome...and the tea.

Coffee? Never been a tea fan. Apart from when I went to China. I liked the stuff they made there. With big leaves and stuff in pots/jars/whatever they had to hand. Me

LOL. Actually, love a coffee too. Best I had was ... well, picture says it all... it's as fine as talc, and leaves a silt in the bottom of the mug, but tastes better than anything I've tasted since
