Oh for goodness sake did you have to suggest that !!

I for one value my breath as I am more than halfway through my 
life now (and still using an ATARI (despite MagiC 5.0, just ...). 

Still if HMG decide to tax computers then I guess PC owners will be
OK :-) or if they manage to tax internet users then I guess Demon
customers will be OK as well :-) :-) (Luv you really Demon !!).

Cheers,

Will.
