Well, I feel sick. While looking through some images last night I noticed a small cluster of dead or stuck pixels. They're about 3" from the bottom, about 1/3 of the way in from the left. As if that wasn't enough, the thing rebooted itself about 8...
One of my favourite authors. Died of cancer, aged only 66.I know his books were frequently turned into crap movies, but he was one of the first authors that got me into reading books cover-to-cover. I liked that most of his books were science-fiction,...
