How many pages is it on default? Only 19 when you max out the number of posts per page in your options.

That is from the letter as well. It clearly states that they have an issue with him accepting compensation for his drivers.


edit: I agree that they can word it how ever they like and go after him for any number of reasons, but it boils down to money in the end.

Creatives share price is falling!

When shareholders and banks start to sell, suddenly upset users on a forum look like more than a storm in a teacup...

A single day small drop isn't significant. If it is continuous then it might signify something more. Another stat to look at is the amount being sold, not just the prices.

Read the whole letter, not a couple sentences.

Since when is a 1% drop in shares the sign of a failing company? Companies in the USA fluctuate more than that on a daily basis.

Not sure whether this is cool or not...

But here is a page which contains some HTTP download links for daniel_k's drivers. Both for Vista and XP.

I'm trying these out for myself

Share prices are to do with the current credit problems, not this

Good job guys.

The more popular this gets, the more chance we have of good drivers.
