Actually I have thought about it, and have come to the conclusion that there would be too many categories, best keep it simple. No one else seems to be complaining either.

Well the thing is, you have just made it a lot more complicated to do some kind of graphic or summary in the first post (at a later date) to collate all the info. As you were never going to do that I can't see a problem however.

Maybe I'll add my goty picks later...
