schestowitzI can perfectly agree with this. I also feel that this is some kind of high-level conspiracy. "Make them play our game, so we could get lots of money".Feb 25 15:15
schestowitzMy suggestion is the same for years: BOYCOTT CRAP. DON'T BUY IT. If you don't buy it, a vendor gets clear message that "something is wrong". When you buy it you ask yourself for more troubles and the vendor thinks everything is ok, because "they're buying it". It's BRAIN-DEAD simple.Feb 25 15:15
