(More than) Slightly off topic, but I was bored........
Using my elaborate set of calculations (that make anything Stephen Hawking has done look like an order for a Chinese take-away for a family of three), a thirteen year-old Dell, a red Bic with a chewed lid and working only when the second phase of Jupiter can be seen by standing on the rear porch steps of number 37 Fairbank Terrace, Bournemouth (I don't mean Jupiter is on the steps, that would be ridiculous), I have worked out that the amount of time the internet has saved businesses since its creation is 0.001753% of the time employees waste on the internet.
You can thank me later.

It's like that IBM advert
where the bloke says 'Every pound you spend on this new computer system will earn you sixteen pounds'.

Except it goes 'Every pound you spend on a T3 connection will cost you four grand in lost productivity".

Which means the guy in our office that decided to get a shitty fucking 128kb connection is actually a financial genius.

I think there's more truth in both of our statements than we realise!
Me? I don't care what speed I've got as long as Red Tube is stutter free!
