I'd like to thank Harald for sharing the results with the forum. Personally I think theres nothing wrong with posting in other languages. If a translation is requested someone usually offers their services. I think its bad taste to complain about it when Harald has just been sharing his test results with the forum; and results many people are interested in at that.
