# t'is

# I would have thought,
that most 'computer/hardware' type words were pretty similar?
(, Tue 22 Jul 2003, 13:37, archived)
# well some are...
RAM - RAM
Memory - Memory
Megabyte - Megabyte
Gigabyte - Gigabyte

but then some aren't...

Hard Drive - Fest Platte
Speakers - Laut Sprecher
Monitor - Bildschurm

s'all a bit confusing.

# I think I read that he is writing a book
He will have to use one then surely?

# He's wrote 4 books
All hand written on legal paper then some fancy monkeys typed it out for him correcting his REALLY bad spelling and stuff.

He's wrote an autobiography, a follow on from the autobiography which was more of a book on wrestling, a childrens christmas book, and a new one that I don't know what it's about yet!
