Good thread on it on http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/forums/s...d.php?t=722539 , seems the bloke is a bog standard kiddy reseller

He looks a bit like this guy McLovin taken from the new film SuperBad

I would recommend this film as its a top laugh

Didn't this kid say something like "often I get called a prodigy, but I take it with a pinch of salt" ? Wowsers... he has some gaul, eh. Perhaps he will do well someday though... he can self-publicise pretty well. I think he is mistaken about his company turnover and number of employees however.

Overall I thought the program was really funny actually, I liked the trick with the earpiece, seen it before but always makes me giggle.

What the hell is this guy up to??

It says he has 2 million customers worldwide, but that was over 2 years ago. Surely he must be a whizz kid to get the 2 million customers in the first place and he would have easily grown his company during that 2 year period?

I'd love to see this guy on Dragon's Den!!!!

He'd be torn to shreds in seconds!

The bloke is a complete muppet http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?t=436765

And the turnover question:

There is 'self-publicise' and 'outright lies'

It is people like this that give our industry a bad name.
