Open your eyes!

    You can lead a horse to water but you cannot make it drink.

    You keep on believing the media you prefer, makes no odds to me.
    Of course the FT, the BBC, The Grauniad, The Independent, The Mirror, the Mail and Sky news (to name but a few) are all part of conspiracy. Whereas right wing bloggers are in sole posession of the truth. Occams razor.

    You'll be calling us sheeple next.
    Society's to blame,
    Or possibly Atari.

    I though the guy behind him, who worked as a cardiac surgeon for six years, summed it up better with his face palm, .

    Just don't buy anything that's imported because of the £ dropping
    2nd computer gigabyte P965ds3p, 7770 E2140@2.9ghz, corsair HX520 6 years stable, replaced now with E8400@3.9ghz and will overclock more when I'm bored.

    I prefer to notice the lady sitting behind him, that had a knowing smirk on her face.

    Most PC users generally aren't short of a few bob, if you have the money to build a PC which is a lot more expensive than a console, or tablet. Then I am guessing 10-15% price increase isn't going to break the bank. If this means that some people have to put off that upgrade, my heart breaks for you it really does.

    "Oh no that £500 quid brand new GPU that I want to buy is now £550" Boo ruddy hoo!

    Considering the huge amount of content already available to all PC gamer's, and other sources to purchase hardware through friends or auction sites, its hardly a hardship worthy of such impassioned complaints.

    Whilst true, having programmed British made Inmos Transputer chips in the distant past I can kind of see why we import them Also the apu on a pi can't be more than a fiver, so I can afford a bit of duty on that.

    A simple 'you'll be alright mate' would have sufficed.
