# Comet, Dixons, PC World
Aren't they owned by the same company or something like that?

# No
It's Dixons, Currys, PCWorld and The Link

Comet are a completely different company

# The last time I ever went into Dixons
was when I bought a Sega Game Gear - the sales assistant tried to get me to buy an extended warranty - I refused again and again, so she called the manager over who said "yes, you really need one, as we get these things back all the time". They had only been released that week.

# don't suppose you could delete the second one
I liked the first one but they're both quite big. Think of the poor 56k'ers ;-)
