    What I love here is that the geekiest of us lot are battling here hoping one of the others buys it because none of us actually NEED it but WANT it, and it's such a great deal!

    To be honest, I figured with you linking it rather than just saying you bought it, you were saying you didn't want it.

    So Micky says he doesn't want it, if you or Chamelion are buying it, then fair enough, if not, im buying it
