    This is something slightly different here. We had an open house day a couple of weeks ago at our head office which is located just outside of Copenhagen,Denmark. It attracted a great response from our customers!

    What are they doing with those bags? Were there notebooks inside?

    For safety reasons we used a glass bottle with some polystyrene inside, to imitate if the LCD screen would be broken or not. It is a Targus Executive plus bag. It was dropped on the floor and then stood on by members of the public to demonstraite its level of protection it offers

    The story doesn't tell us if the bottle was broken or not. Lol.

    What's in those camping tents ? Is that were employees live or is that where the RMA support is ? :p :p

    Were you guys giving out Zepto TVs ? Looks like a lot of happy customers there

    Apparently the bottle didnt break, There was an offer for a very cheap notebook or LCD tv for the first 3 customers. We opened at 10am on friday morning and the first customer was there on wednesday lunchtime and brought a tent with him. By thursday afternoon there were 4 or 5 tents. Friday there was the queue you can see in picture 2 and the parking was diffucult as there was cars parked all down the road. I have all the pictures in a zip file if anyone wants them as there are around 60 in total.

    I have sent you both a PM regarding this

    I dont think anyone from NBR was here, Although there are some Danish people on here so there may have been. It would be too far for anyone else to come
