Think pink

I had an email from one of my mates, part of our daily ritual of around 30 messages back and forth between nine and five :O)

Now B, as we shall call him, is quite well versed in IT – he does loads of clever things with websites and programming, if he recommends something it’s usually a good choice. So anyway, he’s contracting at the minute but his job is coming to an end so he has to return the nice laptop that they had lent him.

The bones of his email were that he has to give the laptop back and he’s been looking at this new one that he really would love to get – he’d added a link at the bottom for me to take a look.

So where does B go for advice, ‘Computer Buyer’, ‘IT World’, some other nerdy tech magazine with pictures of circuit boards in suggestive poses – no. The link was to ‘Shiny Shiny TV – A girls guide to gadgets’ – I kid you not

and then he has the cheek to say that it was the first link that came up on a Google search – yeah right !
