IIRC that would just about cover the cost difference between what it costs to send us stuff vs. what it costs to send you stuff. (I make no statements as to where these charges are incurred just that there is/was a vast difference)

We'll just have to struggle along with state-of-the-art Intel and AMD microprocessors rather than the 20-years behind Aus-made chips.
What WILL we do?

Things sarcastic about the US are ok but things sarcastic about Aus are different?
If you were shooting for 'fair-minded', then you missed.
A post about how a foodstuff, which others were praising, had caused sickness was ok but a post archly suggesting that was inappropriate was not ok?

I wonder if this rate increase affects Santa Claus.
He does have to fly extra far to get to Australia, and in this economy, everyone is looking for ways to make up for lost income.
