Great!

I could see using a variant of the illusion as a theft deterrent tool.
Would love to see the reaction of people to the creepy mannequin in the corner that watches you as you shop.
It was broke, so I fixed it.

Thanks for that. I've had one of these printed and sitting on a shelf for years (I'm looking at it right now), but the file I printed it from was lost a long time ago.

CP's Daily Build just hit me and saw this:
Quote: 2013 is almost feature-complete and we're now preparing for a very, very big 2014. Some of you have already been invited to take a sneak peak but even that is merely the tip of the iceberg. Let me know if you want to join the beta program.
What the 'beta program' about?

Just like Microsoft, CP operate a Beta testing system where you can test out features before they are released to the general public, and bugs can be found, reported and fixed before they escape into the wild and annoy customers. Only once the product is ready, and as bug-free as the hamsters can make it, is it released to the production servers.
This is only slightly different to the Microsoft Beta Program, where the customer pays for the untested software, and the bugs don't get fixed anyway...

So contact CP rather than asking in the Lounge: email chris at CP.

You missed the point. A ComponentOne Studio Enterprise cost $1495 and a Spread .NET - ComponentOne-PA cost $1499. BUT! a CP mug is priceless....

Indeed it is.
However, the dictionary definitions of "priceless"
"having a value beyond all price; invaluable; precious"
or
"having incalculable monetary, intellectual, or spiritual worth"
Is kinda negated when the exact cost in dollars is presented to you...

Your reply is priceless.

It is indeed of inestimable value. But only because I don't work in quantum.

Oh, learning to code it isn't the problem. It's the documentation that takes the time...

No offense to CP, but USD $29 for a travel mug?!!
The title reads Ceramic Travel Mug yet the advert qualifies Durable Stainless Steel. Which is it?!! 
More humorous is that the description qualifies Dishwasher Safe yet the very next line states Hand wash only.
So, put it in the dishwasher & then wash it by hand, can't use the sink...?! 
Even more damned funny is the Mousepad's "Additional View" ~
A plain white mousepad with a 1998-era iMac round-puck mouse! 
Good thing is, there's a 30-day Money Back Guarantee. 
Everyone go buy a bunch to make Chris (think he's become) a millionaire! 
Then return 'em 28 days later!  ... OK, not really ... it's the *thought* that counts!
