Attended very interesting talk by Nobel Prize winner Sir Peter Mansfield on developments in MRI at a IET healthcare technology event on Tuesday evening — apparently Tesla 7 is the safe limit for patient use. So why are there machines in the US which are above Tesla 7? I’d like to find out.

PS: He thinks the incoming EU EMF directive which impacts on the use of MRI is pretty silly.

Well, just four months after I got Dell, with the help of their support to fix my Dimension 3100c machine, it has died again (emitting 6 beeps don’t ya know) — this time of course out of the one year warranty. So what are my course of actions now? PC World who charge
