Everybody say "Hi" to my new spod machine - the `shiney Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo M1405.

I was happy to find that Mastercare had given me £698 in voichers to spend, plus some extra to use on insurance as I'd only gone through about half the term of the original policy, worth about £140. When I talked to the dude there he mentioned that I could use the insurance side towards the laptop as they don't do insurance like that any more! WHOOHOO!

I made my choice based on having £799 to spend, wanting nothing but built in wireless and a widescreen display. I ended up with a Intel Pentium M 1.7GHz with 512MB of RAM, 40Gb hard drive, DVD+-RW drive, nice clear, huge, widescreen display... What else could a boy want? OH - at least 4hrs battery life! With the extra cash left over I got a laptop bag in a rucksack stylee (is a little more secure - not so obviously a laptop). Oh, it's also got a shiny silver lid *G*

I had a couple of quid left over so put it towards buying "Medeival - Total War" and "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" - both very addictive :)

I'm very very happy with the new beast. Mainly the ability to spod with NO wires, and nothing sticking out.

I'm not particularly impressed with Cahoot at the moment. Email Number One )

I logged in, found no charges and no messages, so fired off an email asking where they were... both the email and the supposed charges that have been placed on my current account. Then I got this back in reply, which takes the biscuit. Email Number Two )

So in other words - you've told me I have been charged for something, for some reason, and you obviously know about it, but you can't tell me WHAT for "up to 24hrs"? Does anyone else find that a little on the silly side?
