Nick Pierce Seal of Disapproval
Epson - 10th July 2012
Epson, the award winning manufacturer of quality printers, won a seal of disapproval for the cheapy crap SX130. The SX130 is a truly detestable printer, slow and low quality, and refuses to accept the Epson genuine high capacity T129x ink cartridges that are physically and electronically identical to the medium capacity T128x inks.
PC World - 14th Nov 2011
PC World received a Seal of Disapproval for peddling HDMI cables at almost the same price as the equivalent amount of silver.
ProspectSoft - 30th Apr 2011
ProspectSoft received a Seal of Disapproval for two reasons. Firstly, the silly capitalised second S in their name, and secondly for their consistent approach to writing quality, maintainable code, and putting their customers first.
The PC Manufacturing Industry
Dell received a Seal of Disapproval for their stirling efforts to cheapen the manufacture of PC hardware. Furthermore, every other major competitor of Dell's received a Seal of Disapproval for not having a site like Dell's making it easy as pie for a member of the general public to purchase the PC of their choice.
