That will cheer him up. He is in the middle of A level revising blues.
He also set up the programmable remote that came with the HD tv/monitor
to run absolutely everything else, including the Linux box (Sky type
remote emulator) and an old VCR. Even cleverer, he set up Linux scripts
to pass on these commands to the separate optical digital sound box
where relevant.
