    I've got Dixons on 5 second auto refresh on my second monitor - if it changes, I'll see it!

    How do you do that? Although I dont have a 2nd monitor but would be good to know

    Depends what web browser you have. If you find the appropriate extensions page (small programs that run in your browser) for it there should be an auto-refresh extension you can use.

    I'm using "Auto Refresh Plus" for Google Chrome - it's quite good. You can tell it to refresh every x number of seconds. Even without dual monitors, if you keep it tucked away to the side of the screen you'll see when it changes.

    Don't tell him, don't tell him!!!!

    It's a Firefox add-on. That's all I'm saying. Every man, woman and child for themselves!

    That should reduce our chances of bagging on to below zero.

    There's talk of Dixons doing an America-style refund if you buy now. Waiting to hear specific details though.
