Re: The NHS

Many moons ago (in the days where there was D in the OS) I had a call from someone who wanted to swap my ancient, heavy, Toshiba laptop, then about 6 years old for a shiny new one. 'Scam' was my first thought - but no. Turns out the old clunker was certified as an integral part of some medical kit, and it was cheaper to round up second hand machines than re-certify them with new kit.
