I don't often disagree with you DED, but I do this time.  You say "really quite unthinkable and ill considered-leap" by the British people to leave the Eurozone.  This is totally NOT TRUE !! The Brits have had it with the unelected Eurocrats of Brussels for many years.  They have been thinking about this for over 30 years since being cleverly taken into the Common Market in the 70's.  Now finally they have flicked the birdie at the unrepresentative socialist swill in Europe that has tried to control so much of their society for so many years.  And as the 5th largest economy in the world they will have bugger-all trouble making their own way quite successfully, if not better than they have in the past 30 years.

The British bulldog is back in business!!   Go Britain, go !!

And a warning to you dear in the USA.  This is another reason why Trump will be elected in November in a landslide.  People ares sick of being treated like fools by the PC arrogance of the political elite.

Hmm, this sounds familiar

Respectfully, you (boopthesnot) have no friggin idea.

Forrester and his guys is on the money. Cisco rules the world in this space and that is dangerous. Over time open source network standards are vital.

I had a poster of Ali on my wall for many years.  Some of his great lines, e.g. "float like a butterfly, sting like a bee", are an inspiration to many. 

BUT, could someone please explain to me what a fella who made his money by punching other people (mostly black people) in the face has to do with a company that sells mobile phones and computers?

There are far more people worthy of this kind of attention and respect than Ali, surely.  

Tim Cook and Phil Schiller, you guys are are just too PC.  Stick to what you do best!

Here we go again.  Different charging standards for different vehicles.  Aargh !!!  Do these goons know how to share technology so we the consumer don't get screwed... again.
