Maybe there’s a surcharge for the Sony DRM that kicks in when you install that piece of hardware.

I feel that you or one of your hipster buddies ought to write a love ballad entitled “Screw, Special” immediately. (The bridge would come to a climax at the word “rootkit.”)

Haha, I dunno about that now! Lol, the only country that speaks English and uses the Euro is Ireland… and we don’t really use the plural… cause we’re good Europeans, not like those other lot!

I stand corrected!

Even though I am an international travelling man of mystery (as is George), I was unaware that the singular and plural of “Euro” were the same. I always thought that when the Europeans to whom I spoke used “Euro” as a plural, I thought it was one of those Euro-affectations where they were using their own language’s pluralization rules for English.

Thanks for the heads-up! And hey, the fact that you’re reading Global Nerdy, the hippest tech blog out there, suggests that you actually do have a life.

It should be 61 euro! Argh, there’s no plural! Looking at this is driving me mad. Yeah, I should get a life, ah well.
