Yeah, but "English from the US" isn't derived from Latin. Anyway, nice setup Adam. Looks very fresh and appealing.

What... Who said anything about the US. Chim and I were discussing latin grammatical techniques that are still present in modern day language. Go away.

You can use Cactuses and Cacti if it's plural. But the Cactus on his window was just one, seeing as that type of Cactus appears to be a group, but is really single.

Anyway, can anyone recommend some parts for a full PC for me? I'm going to build one capable of playing game, but i'm not sure what to get. Budget is £750. And I've got the case covered.

Just to add: Skype showed me that website a while ago and I ended up buying a PC for £750, including a 19" monitor and Windows 7. Recommended and stuff!

Oh fuck, totally read that wrong. Sorry for misunderstanding I guess..

Yeah I can see why you did. Np.

Computers are a mixture of pancake mix and steel. It's actually quite simple once you've built a few.

If you can put together LEGO's correctly, you should be good. It's really not that much different other than plugging shit in, and getting drivers once you're done.
