Try the Diall GU10 LEDs from B&Q - for me, they're the real deal at the right price.

Can't agree on a coding style? Maybe the NEW YORK TIMES can help

Braces bad, words good

BEGIN da da da END - good

{ da da da } - bad

in C use a macro to convert BEGIN to { and } to END and the eye strain almost goes away!
