doesn't seem to fit within the number of hours one is required to work in investment banking :-) Anyway, I read through the research. 1. Spelling mistakes and confusion like "release" and "realise"; 2. "Without claiming representation ..." but then everywhare they write about teenagers in general; 3. Overall the content is weak. - Radio : not regular listeners: of course when the program is available on podcast, why bother tuning in at the requried time ? - TV : "Boys generally watch more TV when it is the football season ...", "BBC iPkayer, which allows to watch when they want ..." (re the radio and podcast comment) - Game console : Wii. At last analysts realize that there are games outside the 12-18 age bracket ;-) - Internet : Twitter is lame. Fine How many of you have an account and of these how many are using it ? - Directories : Didn't have to wait for that comment look at the financial distress situation of all those directories under LBO -Viral marketing : we all love it when it's funny and witty - Music : reluctant to pay ... - Cinema : here they worry about virus from downloading, while it doesn't matter for music. I would call this teenage logic, more appaliing is that the analyst didn't cross their "pupil" on that one. Overall they're looking for the cheapest deal with the most add ons. Guess what, Sam Walton understood that years ago, so nothing new under the sun ;-)

Analyst, 15, Creates Storm After Trashing Twitter 381

Barence writes "A 15-year-old schoolboy has become an overnight sensation after writing a report on teenagers' media habits for analysts Morgan Stanley. Intern Matthew Robson was asked to write a report about his friends' use of technology during his work experience stint with the firm's media analysts. The report was so good the firm decided to publish it, and it generated 'five or six' times more interest than Morgan Stanley's regular reports. The schoolboy poured scorn on Twitter, claiming that teenagers 'realize that no one is viewing their profile, so their tweets are pointless.' He also claimed games consoles are replacing mobile phones as the way to chat with friends."

Have bought a second one recently. Bought my first one about 6 years ago after my laptop got trashed by some luggage handler at the airport. Never had any problem. Fits all i need to carry, including set of clothes. Don't forget you can easily unscrew the pieces and then paint the casing (eg with aerograph). PH
