Oh and my dumbass cousin
My cousins do my head in as well .... well the extended family I am regularly in contact with.
My cousin she stitched me up to my mum ... after a MSN convo with her ... don't really bother with that side of the family anymore ... the moment I start trusting them ... the moment they stitch me up... thanks ... not!

That Dell knowingly sold components that they knew were faulty (in the hundreds of thousands) kind of puts me off.
Their new Laptops have been a bit wank ... I have a D430 and it is fucking brilliant ... decent performance ... well built.
Apparently the Equivalent E series is not built as tough ( this is what I look for in a laptop ... build first ... performance second)... which is a shame.
Pity they knowingly sold duff stuff ... why do businesses think they can get away with this?

Aspiring video makers/directors. Please write to wiggle and make some decent adverts for them. These ones are shockingly bad.

not just the US.
everywhere has to do trials.
what you're describing is the patent process. whereby once a drug, or more specifically an active ingredient and its method of manufacture is described and patented, that method cannot then be used by other parties. this allows the inventor time to reap the benefits. however, getting from active ingredient to drug in human ~ 15ish years. giving the drug company ~10 to go from first stage clinical trial to final drug. but in reality that's only probably 5. which. is 5 years to reap back all their costs, and pay dividends to shareholders
Thanks for that you described it a hell of a lot better than I.

I don't know the Marketing Vs R&D cost ... I was just using them as an example and Damo has just proved my example to be complete bullshit.
But in the U.S a drug maker has to go through several sets of trials and they only have soo many years where the drug "is their's" i.e. nobody else can use the formula ... without get my dissertation out I can't tell you the steps that are taken before final approval .. and it has been a year since I wrote the app which worked out the Tanimoto Coefficient for a set of comparisons and longer since I wrote the introduction to the dissertation.
@Damo ... you are correct just looked it up. I was under the impression that Whoever owned Neurofen invented Ibuprofen, dunno where I got that impression then.

Listen you fucknut!
If you read carefully you will see that I don't have much faith in the effectiveness of homeopathy but have found my experience of their diagnosis rather puzzling as the equipment used often highlighted small ailments which I was aware of but which would not have been obvious to the practitioner.I was never really fussed about the arguments for or against it as my girlfriend wanted me to go and I was happy to do it. What I thought of it was neither here nor there and although I sometimes take the piss out of the treatment and methods I am in no position to rubbish something I don't understand or have any knowledge about.
So if you want to form an educated opinion about something why don't you go and check it out yourself and then perhaps study up on some subjective research into it. Reading up on other people's opinions doesn't really count and then you can come back and update me with a brief of what you find you donkey
FUCK OFF ... You seriously believe in that some bloke with some dodgy instrument found some ailments ... you are the fucking donkey mate. Doesn't prove fucking anything.
Guess what only real medicine with proven results (i.e. years worth of research on one drug compound that may never even get to being sold to hospitals/chemists) ... Part of my dissertation was into the costs of actually doing real research and it goes into the 10s of millions. Thus why Nerofen is soo fucking expensive compared to Ibuprofen when they are the same drug ... because the company that own Nerofen spent all the money on the research.
Forget about that people with a Medical Degree i.e. Real Doctors have to do 6 - 7 year studying before they get let loose in the wild.
So all this versus some guy with a fucking dodgy sensor kit, which hasn't gone through any rigourous trials before "going on the market"... your the fucknut mate for even considering this bullshit.

I'm with photoben. As I said before my partner is a firm believer, which is fine with me but what happens once there is another...?
Go see a homeopath and you'll understand. I have no clue about this stuff but I'll try to explain.
They use this machine that measures the frequency (or something) by putting this metal thingy on your pressure points. Different points for different ailments or organs etc.
If everything is OK it hovers around the 50mark (there is a scale from 0 to 100 I think) but if there is an "imbalance" it shoots up. This has been surprisingly/annoyingly accurate too.
They then put the "remedies" they think will help on this plate that is part of the circuit and with some remedies it calms down to the 50 mark again and with others it doesn'tThere are also more advanced machines where they strap things to your limbs and head to measure multiple pressure points simultaneously.
The reports that come from this thingy are scarily detailed and accurateAre you taking the piss or are you seriously stupid?
