Indeed, but the whole ethos of the original 80s company -- enthusiasts selling to enthusiasts -- had long since submerged beneath the commoditisation of the 90s and the bubble of 00s :(

With the rise and rise of 'Social' network sites: 'Computers are making people easier to use everyday'

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
