Just wait for the lawyers to get ready firing at anyone still 
advertising 3.5" disks and 19" monitors instead of 8.89cm disks and 
48.26cm monitors...

And this is where it's heading, believe me. In Germany we just face the 
side-effects of another nicely adopted European law (Equal treatment 
law) being abused by those who like to make a fast buck by exploiting 
the legal system...
