Where did you get this from?

Jammy git! :D

I'm looking forward to getting one for my 18th for taking to Uni. Seeing as it's gonna have to last me several years, I'm looking at a top spec beasty - got my eye on the top-of-the-line modem from SR - the one with the 17inch widescreen. Wonder if that'll be too big? :/
