FOR MEN ONLY!

[Matt. K]

Forget your DX2 and 70-210VR....check out this beautiful sucker!

[sheepie]

don't even suggest it! I keep being threatened with either Jewelery or a Dyson if I buy any more camera gear!

[Geoff]

What's one of these things worth?

[digitor]

You're lucky it's only a threat! Part of the cost of my D70 purchase was a comparably priced diamond ring... Oh well, I guess I've managed a lens or two since then without too much collateral damage

Cheers

Too late for me! already have the Dyson and now the future wife has a sparkler on her finger is now looking for ear rings to match.
I'm now waiting on my tax refund so I can get my new toys!

[embi]

Hmmm this gives me an idea...

...I will have to add up all the "extra's" my future wife has been buying for our Oct 1st wedding and see what equipment I can buy.

[birddog114]

me? a swap of holiday home up in Nelson Bay for all the gears I have. Unfair btw!

[fozzie]

I would rather put the money towards a second digital camera body or at least a deposit on a D2x.
Just think if we did not have carpets in Australia, you would not need one of these. Tiles and a mop and bucket would do.

Hehehehe!
Same as I did

Not yet!

[glamy]

If by "Men Only", you mean men only should read it not to give ideas to wives, well... maybe. But I think it's a bit of a dodgy subject. Showing a sucker as an example can lead to so many interpretations...I do not want to get too explicit to stay within the PG rating.

If only this thing could take photographs! It's so damned beautiful! Why don't they make lawnmowers that look like this?

[Glen]

The Hardly Normal guy let you take photos?





I have the purple version, as there was no red version with racing stripes

[robboh]

Matt, dont even THINK about mentioning lawnmowers!! Whenever I have to use one, I spend the whole time cursing the damned englishman who invented the damned things!!

As for the Dysons, not only do they look great, but they work very well too... Even a Malamute in full blow doesnt slow our Dyson down!!

Oh, by the way. A tip for those who want to curtail the other half wanting one of these, just mention to her that the see-thru catch tank will let her see just HOW dirty her carpet really is!!

[Nnnnsic]

What the...

it's a bloody vacuum cleaner...

[stubbsy]

What the...

it's a bloody vacuum cleaner...

... that's exceptionally well marketed (btw congratulations on your new sales job Matt ) Seem to recall choice reviewed this not that long ago and found others comparable at lower prices.

[ozczecho]

Does it come with a woman ?

[Nnnnsic]

Does it come with a woman ?

For some people, it is a woman.

For some people, it is a woman.

Thanks Leigh - I think I need to wash the inside of my head out with soap

[ozczecho]

Just hurts thinking about it

Always happy to oblige, Peter.

And why use soap, when there's a nice brand new vacuum cleaner in the beginning of this thread waiting to clean that head out for you!

But wait! That's not all! Call now and you'll find out how it can do more than just clean out your head...

[PiroStitch]

We have a Dyson at home...and Leigh I don't think you'd even want to try that. The Dysons are pretty powerful at what they do

[gstark]

Just another blow-in!

[Nnnnsic]

Just another blow-in!

That pun really sucked, Dad.

[mic]

I knew a fella once that did that trick with a Vac he had a black eye for weeks

So lonnnngggg Succckkkeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Mic.
Sticking with my Sanyo.

*comic guy voice* Worst-thread-ever */comic guy voice*

[Matt. K]

Yes. Worse thread ever.

[birddog114]

Yes. Worse thread ever.

Matt.K,
Now find a new subject: FOR WOMEN ONLY.

[embi]

[petermmc]

Dyson are a great company. The long barrell on our Dyson vac was mysteriously snapped in two by unknown suspects (3 kids swear they were not in the country when it happened...mind you they were only 8 and 10 at the time)

I rang up the Dyson customer care line at about 6.30 pm on a Friday night and the lady was incredibly helpful. She sent a replacement part which I received the following Monday or Tuesday...No charge...no judicial inquiry...no blame... just great customer service. They are not paying me for this commercial. Wouldn't it be great if camera reparit companies were as responsive.

Go Dyson! PS they are not a bad vacuum cleaner either.

Just getting on to the actual photograph ( something that seems to have been completely missed by all the lads attracted to the FOR MEN ONLY topic heading), I have to say that is a nice sharp photograph Matt.

However on looking at the photograph right hand side, there seems to be some reflections and I'm wondering if this is lens reflection or whether you took the photograph looking through a window or something?

Cheers

Graham

Very observant. It was a snapshot through a shop window. It was, though, glowing in soft light, which is why I photographed it.

[mic]

Matt,

I think next time, get a naked FEMALE Model vacuuming Invert it or B&W it & call it Art

Mic.

[bago100]

I say, Mic does have a point although the female forum members may argue strongly for a naked male.

Cheers

Graham

[birddog114]

Mic's pills will solve all the problems
