Employees are like mules. Some you stand in front of and coax them along with a carrot. Some you stand behind and kick them in the arse. The key to management is knowing which mules are which!

According to official sources at SO, any Excell sent out before 23rd February was fitted with a 3400mA battery... all later ones were fitted with a 4200mA battery.
