yeah ... Aussie Dollar is like Canadian - against the pound is just a joke thou.
here something interesting to note,
did anyone know that the amounts people earn compared to how much they spend is generally the same for the US/UK
most other countries have it a bit higher.
i mean it is stupid how the peeps in the UK are charged more, because rather than converting companies simply sell at the same price... so $30 US and £30 UK
but as our snotty nosed teens seem to be both on the same kinda pay per hour and the relatively same hours - technically i can't see the problem.
Probably good to think though - for every person who purchases a copy of a game made outside of the UK that is the equvilant of 2(or more) people buying it in the native country
... profit wise of course.
i know its got nothing to do with this topic at all, but all this talk about money kinda got me thinkin about it for a sec.
ya know all that aside, it is still FAR cheaper to buy PC hardware in the UK - even with converting my USD, GeForce4 Ti 680 DRR2 128Mb AGP 8x £250
... i took a look at the US price recently, and just laughed cause it just takes the pee, i could get a fully equipped system with a pretty beefy processor for what most places are asking for it!
Also AMD processors, man i swear AlthonXP 2100+ 2Ghz processor £90 - you still talking around $220-250 here
and just incase anyone is interested ...
US Dollar -> Sterling Pound = 0.45
Sterling Pound -> USD = 1.70
don't really need calculators for it, i mean the transfer is just the market offset compaired to other countries - and you just times that figure by what you have to get what its worth abroad
don't really need a fancy calc for it ... i mean if you can't do it in your head or on paper you need to brush up on ya math
Anata aru kowagaru no watashi!
