so...maybe drop andrew a line and see what's up. for the record, I haven't bothered to take this offer up (yet), but I will probably get around to it this weekend.

does anybody have a link to where absolute talks about their VIP program? I looked all over their site, but could only find the smallest of little blurbs. If anybody knows where I could find more information about it I would be very thankful
