PC and maybe Xbox/PS3
It's an MMORPG.

Which they have been banging on about for years
and STILL doesn't have a release date despite now being available for preorder.
Thinks Warcraft but with Star Wars

Not decided yet
I'd rather be Sith than Jedi. I might have several characters like people do on Warcraft. I quite fancy being a bounty hunter.
p.s. "later this year" Isn't a release date though

Not a specific release date, no, I'll concede that
I hope they don't follow the route of the other SW online game, where you could only have one character per server. My main will probably be a Sith assassin.

Hogging the laptop to play a Star Wars MMORPG for hours on end
is the quickest route to No Sex Ever Boulevard I can imagine

A magazine I read
once described building a PC "like Lego, only with a slightly higher risk of horrific electrical death".

and much better kudos from
people who don't realise how easy it is.
for some reason no one is impressed when you build stuff from lego

Not even that unless you try hard
The maximum internal voltage (outside the PSU) should be 12V

Indeed
and even then you'd have to be stupid enough to plug it in before assembling the rest of the machine.
It amused me, that's all.

The capacitors in the PSU can hold a charge,
for the rest you stand more chance of damaging the PC than yourself if you fiddle while running, and usually not even that. I've not actually killed on since I forced the power supply from a 286 onto a 386 mobo as then plug styles were 'close enough'. lots of magic smoke escaped but no one was hurt.

I just wanted to join in with the big boys

There's no risk of that unless you plug it in and turn it on

plug it in, yes
(that stops static problems) but just don't turn it on
