    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    i posted this on monday. i was utterly fed up with my turbo and wanted it gone. i had no intention of it going viral - i just wanted shot of the piece of crap and wanted to get it off my chest. i also like to write about things and ebay makes me laugh. ergo: ebay advert.
