Hey - what if it was the other way around? This is silly. The original could have been a European picture with 3 white guys and it order to fit American political correctness a black had to be edited into the picture. Sigh!

While not quite as bad as this - I had the battery on a 12 month old iPAQ expand to double size - enough to break the cover. That in itself is not interesting at all. What IS interesting however is that I actually thought HP would be interested in this (in order to prevent this from happening) but they were not - not at all. I contacted the local HP support, I wrote letters, faxes and emails - with absolutely zero reaction except I could buy a new battery if I wanted. They didn't attempt to stop me from talking - they simply weren't interested at all.

Ahem - did you ever use a thinkpad? Remember that weird folding keyboard they once did? Might look fragile but it won't be. Thinkpads might be ugly as hell (actually I personally don't think they are), unsexy and clumsy but they are solid as a rock.
