Just inform your GF that the diamond industry is the biggest marketing scam of all time, and that in reality, diamonds should be no more expensive than a box of rocks as they are, in fact, very abundant stones (we're talkin' huge warehouses full of stored diamonds, folks). The evil DeBoers cartel controls the industry so tightly, resulting in an incredibly inflated pricing environment. (They didn't achieve that power by being ethical or benign).

Right now, there are a couple companies that are just beginning to research & manufacture diamonds that are indistinguishable (even by precise microscopic testing methods) from "real" diamonds. Give it a few more years, and perhaps we will finally see some reasonable prices (promising your then wife a diamond ring 3 times the size you could afford to buy her now!).

It's a win-win, you get your equipment now, with a promise of a much greater gift for her later!

Isn't Today *The* Day? []

[Cliff_L]

Well, I don't think DaveF ever set an 'official' date for announcing the results but he DID say at the end of the month! Hopefully one of our submittals was even seriously considered - I suppose there's the chance that they won't use any of 'em. Still waiting not so patiently....

I've been holding off buying my set of speakers, just for the slight possiblity of the outcome of this. I tried very hard to recreate a design that was both professional and elegant, and I think I achieved that. I had so much fun just working on this, meanwhile thinking, if I win where exactly I will place my prize!

Since we were given until the end of the month and it's now April 1st I thought I might post what my submission looks like. I'd like to know what Dave and Curtis' thoughts are before I do..... I don't wish to alter some *space/time continuium* or whatnot [8D]
