Re: FX80 early lesson in marketing?

On the FX-81, the difference being that if you pressed the two-key combination required to initiate Standard Deviation mode, the FX-81 would indicate "ERROR" rather than "SD", if I remember rightly - but as you say it would otherwise function exactly as the more expensive model. I put little sticky labels under the keys on mine so I could easily access the hidden functions.

@AC's Not-a-Cluely comment

You appear to have missed that Mr Cluley works for Sophos. He made a general comment that 3rd party ad serving companies should be careful how they serve their content. He's not someone from the Daily Mail saying "not our fault guv".

You also appear to have missed that he stated the DM would be well advised to stop serving ads from that provider until the issue is resolved.

@ the all-DM-readers-deserve-to-die-posters... Why not demonstrate what a comparitively intelligent readership el Reg has, by holding fire on the kneejerk comments?

OK I'm off now, to post something positive about Microsoft on Slashdot...
