Hopefully not SRS or, more importantly Pentax/Hoya.

Adobe CS4 was a nightmare to have installed at work for a colleague.

It took days to sort out with Adobe before the Adobe system recognised it as a legitimate piece of software.

A J Purdey were doing 25% off anything in stock 2 days before they closed.
Nothing there in the way of Pentax gear but a friend of mine ordered a Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 for his new Nikon D90 and it arrived the day they shut shop.
He got it for £385 delivered .. luckily it all works fine.
