Yes, because they are already grabbing the f’ing fee at the resellers!
This ‘investigative’ report is being fed a line and eating it…

32MB of (DDR4ish speeds) cache for 8GB? Yeah, no, it wont. It improves speed some of the workflows Xbox One would have had without it, but its still got relatively slow memory.

I would suggest just GMT (officially replaced with UTC, but normal peeps still use GMT) + the two US timezones that they use often.

BST is just +1 off GMT (as is CET) and well, if Brits like me cant do +1, we’re doomed as a species :P

So rather than have GMT (for everyone on the planet to easily know the time), they list another timezone and then have to remove that offset then add their own? It makes it more complicated and error prone.

Though they did get it down… you have to wonder if making a replacement tower with this amount of smugness is just going to encourage the same again.

I don’t appreciate the homogenisation of presenting styles, no. The softly spoken style, the black half-sleeved top, you can’t say those are just from training.
