The snooze button probably invokes a counter to count on by a given number of minutes until the alarm goes off again - this may well be only a single-digit counter (to save space on the chip) therefore waiting 10 minutes is impossible, so 9 is the next best thing. ISTR that another similar counter ...

He was only asking a couple of reasonable questions which you would normally see in the "Questions from Correspondents" column in the Daily Mail. Oh, I'm sorry you're right. While we're at it, let's pre-empt some more of his fascinating questions: <ul> <li>Why can't the mint print more mo...

You can get a pre-release version of tab mix plus for FF2 from the tmp website. Google tab mix plus and it is the second result. I don't think the lack of extensions for a browser that hasn't officially been launched yet, is a fair criticism! I've been using FF2 for a couple of weeks now (initially ...
