Laptop Shell
I've just noticed that the bottom left corner of my laptop casing is cracked - to the point where a little bit has actually come off! 
I'm not very impressed with this, as checking the bottom right (i.e. bottom right left when working on it) reveals that has a crack as well.
I think I'll end up taking it back to Currys and complaining, I only had the laptop for ~6 months, which means it's still under warranty 
Xbox Live – Down Again??
I seem to be having issues with Xbox Live again...very similar to those I was having just after Christmas and around New Year.
Also they seem to be relating to Call Of Duty 4 again which seems more than a coincidence to me. If it carries on I'll be phoning Microsoft to see what I can get out of them for it, because I know that I'm not the only person that has been experiencing this problem.
Another Xbox Live Update
It seems that Xbox Live is still down, yesterday/this morning I noticed it was down from about 5PM until at least 3AM (G.M.T). I can't say why this is, but I can say that it's to do with Call Of Duty 4, because I can't play that online during that time at all. I can play other games online (Forza 2, Guitar Hero 3) just not COD4.
I'm hoping Microsoft get this fixed soon, because if they don't I'll be calling them to give me an extra month of Xbox Live for free...if it continues I'd like to think some of you would do the same
Update On Xbox Live
It seem's that Microsoft are aware of this issue, which is good. However I noticed last night (December 29th) my Xbox was doing the same as the 28th!
Basically I turn the Xbox on, sign in, and it tells me how many friends are online then I just get the loading ring, and if I wait long enough it tells me to sign into Xbox Live. The weird thing is that if I put a game in, it signs me into Xbox Live no problems.
I think this is something to do with Call Of Duty 4:MW because I couldn't play that online at all last night, so for the last 2 nights I've been racing on Forza Motorsport 2. If anybody else is having these exact same issues I'd be interested to know, as it only seems to happen around 9PM G.M.T until about 2AM.
And if you want to know who I am on Xbox Live, check the about page, I've just added my GamerCard! And don't forget that comments are always welcome...unless you're spamming me
