Ya sometimes you can find some interesting programs.

Ok another interesting fact.

James Dyson created 5127 prototypes of his first bagless vacuum and didnt sell one until 5127. He just was never satisfied with the results.

Hoover's Vice president of Europe was later quoted to say "I do regret that Hoover as a company did not take the product technology off Dyson; it would have lain on the shelf and not been used."
