I can tell you what'll happen. He'll tell you he needs to adjust the fit of your bonnet and go off into his shed looking for a tool called a "Sammy". (also excellent for "adjusting" printer drivers, apparently) .

He probably won't find it, but I'd make my excuses and leave just in case.  :y

No, it has to be Sony,

but a nice touch would be if it were printed in pink

just to show off the feminine side   ;D

Sammy disappeared shortly after performing a minor adjustment to a DLT computer tape backup unit.

Percy Pickaxe is a suitable replacement imho....

And why the hell do they need to bleep? What is the gain?  I know chavs probably think its really cool, but anyone who knows how to wear a baseball cap will soon grow tired of it....

Except that they also put the Bleeps on the active black panel units - and the fascia`s are not removeable - work that one out ?
