Ten... Wireless Headphones

what about the mm 400

why did they review the sennheiser mm 400 ? it has a microphone built in which is very good quality and goes for approx £150, if the batteries run out you can plug in a cable and it turns into a wired headphone. ( highly unlikely cause it has Lithium Polymer batteries which last long )

Orange gives the green light

Ex-AMD exec called own company 'pathetic'

Sales people....

It seems it was no mistake letting that salesguy lave , they should have kicked him harder.

It does not matter which chip is better or more advanced, INTEL abused it's position, used it bigger moneypot ( which it stole from unsuspecting unknowledgeldeable customers ) 2 wrongs dont make a right.

AMD is still better in theprice/performace ratio, and you get what you buy, usually the ppl who complain are cannot keep their CPU cool to let it perform well.

crap service they provide, they should be shaken up a bit
