I wonder how many people will buy one just to try to chip it?

Or break one trying to chip it, and have to buy another?

It's one way of boosting sales....

Woah! Pricey operation.

Someone will chip it, and get themselves a nice job offer from Microsoft, no doubt.

Well, maybe it's true, but if it is he'll be giving away 1 million pounds.

Someone will chip it somehow.
