E: 31/07 Win the e-STUDIO200 home office equipment from Toshiba, worth £1000!(MERGED)

This month Focus is offering three readers the chance to win a piece of home office equipment from Toshiba worth £1000. The e-STUDIO200s is a printer, scanner and copier that’s also capable of faxing. Aimed at those running small businesses, it can colour scan at a high resolution of 4800x4800 dpi and print 20 black and white pages per minute. It’s compact too – the e-STUDIO200s has been designed to sit on the edge of a desktop. To find out more about Toshiba’s multi-functional products, visit www.toshiba.co.uk/imaging

To be in with a chance of winning one of these fantastic prizes, just answer this question:

  • That's right. Double checked from here

    The LHC is exactly what its name suggests - a large collider of hadrons. Strictly, LHC refers to the collider; a machine that deserves to be labelled ‘large’, it not only weighs more than 38,000 tonnes, but runs for 27km (16.5m) in a circular tunnel 100 metres beneath the Swiss/French border at Geneva.
  • Are you aware of the legal action in US Federal Courts to prevent operation until safety can be independently confirmed? :confused:

    In order for Earth to be in danger from micro black holes, all of the following would need to be true: - Micro black holes would need to be creatable at collider energies. This is unknown.
    - Micro black holes would need to be stable and not decay. This is unknown.
    - Micro black holes would need to grow quickly. This is also unknown.
    Cosmic ray impacts do not prove safety because results of cosmic rays pass through Earth and into space at nearly the speed of light. (If colliders create micro black holes, some will move slowly enough to be captured by Earth's gravity). :cool:
    The probability of danger is unknown, though the legal action currently before US Federal Courts estimates high risk. :naughty:
