Yes a great set up ... and great for the whole Country

They are now I think the most PC literate Country ( maybe with Latvia and Lithuania).

One thing I found was true ... The reviews I read said be prepared if you go in Bars Pubs etc because you won't get much conversation as there will just be a "sea" of Laptop lids .... and that proved right.
