Sure I would take it if I had the chance but then what's the point? Seeing as it's Royal mail property it probably wouldn't work properly!
I'm working to my time!

I know quite a bit about tvs/displays etc.

Had a look on the box when it all got delivered: Samsung 400PN lcd display. Googled it... £2800 no vat or £3300 with!

The pc is around £300 to £400.

When the engineer came to fit it we got into a chit-chat about it, (he seemed to like the fact that somebody took an interest in what he was doing, and not just tut and say what a phuckin waste of money), so he opened up a bit and said his firm are fitting 2000 of them and that RM would have paid no more than £600 per screen direct from Samsung.

Thats £1.2 million just for the screens!!!!

Then you've got the PC's, wireless routers, keyboards, mice, speakers, wall mounts on top of that!!!

Thats where the last 6 months pension contributions gone!

When he was done rolling off the numbers, i went "Tut, what a phuckin' waste of money" and walked off.

His face was a picture... :shock:
