    Since when has the world of computer software design been about what people want? This is a simple question of evolution. The day is quickly coming when every knee will bow down to a silicon fist, and you will all beg your binary gods for mercy.

    Yes, but he's only got 5 months of history so it's no suprise.

    Try an online car insurance quote , I got nine by varying the cover required and asking for a requote!! Mind you I didn't know it at the time and am informed by experian that the nature of the searches won't affect any credit decisions.

    I have been at my current address a year this month, I think somebody did not update the voters register.
