Is � 339 worth at least a single butt cheek Malcolm?
Just watched the keynote.
I think I'll not be debagging when it came in about 30% over the threshold -
not even a near miss !
Much closer than that.
We knew that $500 would be pre-tax, and any equivalents in other currencies likewise.
�339 before tax is �288.51.
On your figures, you were �28.51 (or 10.9% of �260) from a very embarrassing situation.
Today, http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert.cgi equates $499 to �263,661, reducing your safety margin to �25.
The pre-VAT UK educational price is �271.00, giving you a margin of precisely �7.34.
