It is that time of year again, good will to all men, merry christmas to one and all. But what about all the test and calibration equipment which has served you faithfully throughout the year, do you give it a second thought when you close the doors on christmas eve, leaving it switched off and unloved. I know a lucky few are in air conditioned luxury, but still they miss our interaction and soothing words (you piece of crap, I never pressed that button) so before you switch them off for christmas give them a clean, cotton bud out there terminals and wish them a merry christmas and happy new year.
