@Edent Surely that depends on how many hours you are supposed to be dedicating to it? Remember that academic *study* - and PhD is still study - is aimed primarily at early adulthood, and yes these days students are expected to supplement their upkeep during study, with additional paid work. (I'm not endorsing the view, but that is pretty much how it works.)

£19237 at NMW of £11.44/h is 210 8h days. Which leaves 50 of the year's work days free for other earning or holiday activity.

I'm getting really pissed off with Google, Microsoft, and especially @mozilla slugging it out over altering the UI paradigm. My window manager provides a standard format and is configured how *I*, the user, find comfortable. Fucking use it, instead of hiding menus and window decorations!

Sometimes new isn't better, and the WIMP interface with text labels and drop-down menus was - and remains - perfection.
