MySpace stripped of myspace.co.uk domain victory

Even if it does bring in lots of cash

It is not their fault MySpace decided to call themselves MySpace.

I cannot just register a name unique in my country and expect it to be unique everywhere else.

Samsung to mass-produce 14in OLED TVs in 2010

Can't wait

Being the owner of probably the only digital camera with OLED display (Kodak LS633), I can vouch for the merits of such technology.

I just hope they can solve the "ghosting" issues that it suffers from (more so than LCD and Plasma).

Take case to court

If you are ever caught speeding, please do take it to court.

It took my case 9 months to be heard in court, after several letters to Thames Valley Police highlighting their mistake and repeated requests from Thames Valley Police to own up and pay £60 plus 3 points on my licence.

Thankfully they saw the light and admitted fault in court. I was only entitled to expenses I had receipts for, which was the £3 car parking ticket I had to pay to attend court that day: I did not engage a solicitor even though I received plenty of legal advice (for free!) from the guys at www.safespeed.org.

I kept the £3 cheque from TVP and will frame it one day!

Details of my case (and many others) are on www.safespeed.org 's forum.

Contact Acer

I would recommend Mr. Tikka calls Acer and gets his laptop repaired by them.

I purchased an Acer laptop myself 3 years ago, directly from Acer, and it came with a 1 year warranty including home collection service.

Sure PC World should honour the claim on behalf of Acer.
