@Ravallo -- Wouldn't this be better off in the Hardware section? With the addition of prices in USD? (Not directly converted values, individual price checks).

Feel free to move it back if you object

Hmm yes I think so, figured no one was going to view this section but well ...
And I might indeed add the USD/GBP prices on all individual prices aswell, however, since I couldn't create a decent table for this I was forced to screenshot a Word file: too much of a hassle to be honest

If either of you and Alen have a better setup go ahead and edit it
