[Stuff breaking down...] So I switched back to Microsoft. I have bought a Microsoft keyboard in the past that I used for the longest time, but that was a time when computer peripherals were still beige and white. So it was a long time ago. Anyway, I bought a wireless mouse and keyboard combo and they shared the same receiver. It was good, until I realised a few of the keys on the keyboard did not work. I managed to get a new set replaced by Microsoft, who sent it to my door-step which was phenomenal service on their part. My next Microsoft hardware purchases were the Arc Mouse and the Arc Touch. I can't say much about the Arc Touch as I only just got it and haven't really started using it yet. But now my Arc Mouse has a problem. For some reason, all the batteries I've used in the mouse has leaked. A clear, transparent liquid leaks out from the battery compartment. There is no apparent smell or anything, but that's definitely not supposed to happen. Also, a blue residue is building up around the battery contact points which is interfering with the power that the batteries are supplying to the mouse. I've written to them, asking for a replacement. Let's see how they respond. In any case, it is most disappointing to have two out of the three Microsoft hardware I've purchased recently requiring some sort of after-sale service. ^^^ by Locksley @ 3:59 PM.

Broken for now. :( If anyone knows of a good way to display tweets without using Twitter's awful looking widgets, please let me know. Preferably something that allows me to retrieve my tweets in plain-text format.
