Do you believe the hype?

June 26, 2017 by Alan Stainer

Do you believe the hype?

The problem with any company coming out with so called ‘tests’ that claim their product is better, faster, stronger and lasts longer than the competition, is that it is all hype and quite often baloney.

However, when it comes to battery tests amidst the claims of browser performance and batteries lasting longer with browser X, a third party has actually gone to the trouble of testing everything in a fair manner.

The upshot of this is, don’t believe the hype.

    You just reminded me of the film Bedazzled Nicholas Berry

    Not the remake, the original Peter Cook and Dudley Moore classic.

    Anyway, this bit…

    George Spiggott: Everything I’ve ever told you has been a lie. Including that.

    Stanley Moon: Including what?

    George Spiggott: That everything I’ve ever told has been a lie. That’s not true.

    Stanley Moon: I don’t know what to believe.

    George Spiggott: Not me, Stanley, believe me!

    I’ve completely avoided the remake ;)

    One remake I looked forward to, and they completely screwed up, was The Day The Earth Stood Still. Since then I’ve been very anti remake/reboot.
