Like any other business, cash out means a need for cash in exceeding that of the stuff going out so the models are driven more by the demands of the business than the demands of the community. As they say "time is money" so in the end Phil chooses to get stuff out the door and earning a fee as soon as he thinks it will sell.

It's a business model... but not an attractive one as far as we users are concerned (at least I don't think so).

I knew someone would get there in the end, go to the front of the class next to the pretty girls :).

Deep breath and hold, close eyes, gently tilt head back and exhale slowly LOL, works for me every time :).

I most certainly did, they didnt push her like they used to in the old days, I didnt hear the intake howl once so reckon they were only 80% full power, still very impressive though and a nice finish to a wonderful day ( legged it home before the heavens opened ) with some Skysim chappies.

Wellies ?, dont possess any of them, plenty of anoraks though 8) .

Better ?, told you to keep taking those deep breaths, works every time :cool:.
