The Mail On Sunday don't produce 'Night and Day' magazine anymore so it must be the 'Live' mag they're talking about. In any case I usually get the Mail On Sunday so I'll see, whatever it is  :)

I assume that Focus is the BBC Focus science magazine.  Interesting place to see a feature on Mike, I must say...

Ah, perhaps he's picking his favourite gadgets in the 'Live' mag for the Mail On Sunday then, seeing as they typically feature that sort of thing. Could be interesting: I'd really be interested to know how cutting edge some of his choices are - the more powerful/funky the better in my view.  :cool:

Ooh. Just had a MO newswire e-mail telling me that there's a TV ad (in the UK) forthcoming for the Platinum Collection. Looks like there's actually going to be some serious promotion for this release. Great stuff!

Though why there couldn't have been for other MO releases I have no idea...
