    Advise please on Porsche Driveplan (motorplan)

    I've seached and didn't find anything, so apologies if this question was answered before... I'm hoping to buy a new Macan. Should I take the standard 3 year driveplan or the additional cost 5 year driveplan? I don't expect to do more than 10k km per year, and could sell or tradein within 3...

    Eskom said to offer workers 7% increase after illegal protests

    Should have fired the lot now. Sends the wrong message getting rewarded for illegal strikes. Shows how useless, incompetent and ineffective our leaders are.

    Around 1.4 million jobs were lost in South Africa - and the tech sector wasn't spared

    So 1.4 million lost jobs equates to a 0.1% increase in unemployment. So does that mean that the total employable base is 140 million? What am I missing in my simple calculation?

    Former security agency and ANC members linked to Jacob Zuma allegedly behind riots – sources

    "Commenting on the continued unrest, Dlodlo said they had done a good job at preventing the riots and looting from spreading." Dlodlo, do you really believe your own BS? Are you so out of touch with reality? “The intelligence has always been there. We have been providing information through...

    Report says Eskom paid R2 billion for fraudulent invoices

    I agree the level of corruption is and ineptitude is just on another level, but if de Ruyter's math is anything to go by, he ain't fixing it. “R2 billion savings is not a lot, it’s about 4% of R140 billion. That is exceptionally modest, but Solly has not delivered what was asked of him,” De...

    SABC threatened with blackout

    Did they or didn't they? Couldn't care less. Does the SABC have any relevance to SA? The sooner we kill dinosaurs like SABC, SAA, and many others, the better.

    New Game Black Friday specials unveiled

    Clueless moron marketing people who have no idea what Black Friday means, jumping on the bandwagon. A 7% discount (Acer laptop) is barely a "normal" special, let alone a Black Friday deal!

    Awesome Black Friday tech deals from Takealot, Game, and Incredible Connection

    This. Easy for retailers to jump on the Black Friday bandwagon, but they have no clue what it represents. It is NOT your run of the mill 5% off specials which SA retailers are so fond of.

    Unethical behaviour by Afrihost?

    So I finally cancelled my Afrihost fibre service on Vuma after they failed to resolve continuous dropped network issues. I have signed up with Cool Ideas, and Afrihost assured me they will release my line at mid-night. Seems like I may have ticked them off, because they cut me off at around 8pm...

    Best ISP for fiber?

    I appreciate the offer to help, but the rest of Afrihost dropped the ball big time. My ship has sailed, and I can't wait for the 1st when I join Cool Ideas.
