Hi Adrie and Marsha

This is an example of how something can have good quality in content but still the presentation is messed up by the form of it.

An iPad would probably give it a higher quality as the total quality is composed by both the content and how it is presented.

We are having the first Belgium covering white christmas since 1964,
i was 5 yrs old then.
And now its snowing and freezing for 22 days without stopping, what a
traffic
jam.
I don't celebrate it , but nice to see it, the country covered in white.
