fucking microshit, die in hell and finally bankrupt

Because you dumbasses decided that you would like a weaker pound with Brexit, and without the benefits the EU provides

truly a mystery

Because your currency isn't worth shit now, britbong.

fucks sake why do people even buy laptops

you didn't vote so good.

I think they'll be OK

It's a small price to pay for sovereignty you soulless kike

you're cucks one way or another

I'm not even British, I'm a Leaf, but if I were I would've voted LEAVE 100%

They do seem overpriced already.

Explain what freedom I have now that I didn't have last year

We will get more muslamic rayguns moving in now that migration from EU countries is being kiboshed.

Why aren't there other companies making a new OS? Hell, why not a country? Most already spy on their citizens, how worse could a government created OS be for spying.

>I'm a leaf
thanks for giving me an even better reason to discard your idiotic opinion

None, because you didn't leave yet.

Don't even give a shit. I'm not planning to buy a new laptop or desktop for years.

That's what happens when you refuse to let Trump speak in front of Parliament.

The EU was the best thing England could have, stop jerking off to the fantasy of the British empire at it's prime, that's not happening again, alone you are weak and your economy will suffer for the next several decades as your politicians slowly realize this (if they haven't already)

>as your politicians slowly realize this
The politicians were always against Brexit. It was the poorfag chucklefucks who believed a vote for Brexit was a vote against "the elitist establishment" (whatever the fuck that means).

t. establishment
stay mad

Everybody, since every country in the world belongs to America

But muh 300million for nhc per year

BREXIT devalued the British pound so much Microsoft had no choice but to increase the price

oooh da edge

Brit here. I used to use a Surface tablet in my old job. I don't know what the fuck model it was but it was a terrible piece of shit and anyone who buys a Surface for any price is a retard.

GBP did not decrease by 15%

The funny thing is they seriously think this will stop immigration, legally or illegally.

Thing is, if France and over countries just stop trying to prevent people reaching the UK, we WILL need to deal with them when they arrive.
This has COSTS associated with it.
(luckily, we seem to have struck a deal with France to continute to help pay for housing, protection and employees to deal with them)

And the stupid retard producer economy think they will be able to do whatever they want now since no EU Rules apply. (muh bendy fukken bananas m8)
OH, wait, good luck selling the fucking things to the only market you had, the EU.
Most of our exports were also based on imports... FROM THE EU.
This is what kills me every time I see these fucking retards saying stuff like "oh hey, look, sales of British products are up", NO FUCKING SHIT YOU STUPID FUCKING CUNT, THE POUND IS DEAD IN THE WATER, OUR SHIT'S CHEAP.
Good luck filling in the demand when we run out of fucking resources to make said exports, you dumb CUNTS.

Moving to fucking iceland.
Fuck off UK.

Increase of other costs are probably taken into account no business increases costs lightly they would rather not do so

>Without the UK dicking things up EU Army then EU Federalism happens

The Germans sure know how to play the long game.

>The funny thing is they seriously think this will stop immigration, legally or illegally.
>Thing is, if France and over countries just stop trying to prevent people reaching the UK, we WILL need to deal with them when they arrive.
No they won't you retard. France won't want the rest of the world knowing that they willingly allow people to cross a hard border undocumented. It's in their interests to stop illegal immigrants entering the UK.
>(luckily, we seem to have struck a deal with France to continute to help pay for housing, protection and employees to deal with them)
It's not a 'deal', it's just basic fucking diplomacy.
>And the stupid retard producer economy think they will be able to do whatever they want now since no EU Rules apply. (muh bendy fukken bananas m8)

LOL you are mad and dumb. The economy will be fine, stop overreacting and wait and see what happens.

I literally live a 5 minute walk from where that picture was taken. I kek every time.

Because tories.

Wait and see what happens?
We've already seen what happens.
It is only going to get worse LONG before it gets better. VERY LONG.

The only confirmed deal we have is with a person half the country hates and is actively trying to ban: Trump.
The others? India, Australia. Both want to make deals, but offer no guarantee it will be anywhere close to before or in 2 years time.

You're fucking delusional if you think we can survive off limited cheap exports
We're NOTHING. We're a tiny little shithole with barely any resources to do anything on a global market.
The "rational" voters think the world is like it was pre-EU Britain. It is NOT.

But na, na, we can totally survive. Just ask Tata St-... oh.

We've already seen what happens? If you ask most people in the street literally fuck all has changed for them so far. It doesn't matter what the retard public's opinion of Trump is. Le ebul capitalist man who's literally indistinguishable from Le epic nigger man in terms of policy, but hey he said mean things so let's hate him. And you care about the opinion of people who actually think like this?

The importance of trade deals is being way overstated. People are still going to want to trade with the UK. What's actually changed? Fucking think about it for a second. I know politicians are crooked cunts but they aren't going to cut off their noses to spite their faces.

Tata steel, oh look, trade unionists fucking things up again. Wow. What a surprise. Shock and horror.

>If you ask most people in the street literally fuck all has changed for them so far
A bunch of imported food is more expensive. (a large part since we stopped growing loads of the shit)
Fuel prices have went up.
Travel is noticeably more expensive.
ANY foreign-produced products are going up in price. YOU'RE LITERALLY IN A THREAD WHERE PRICES ARE GOING UP.

Yeah, sure.
Nuffin at all. NUFFIN AT ALL.
You have to be 18 to post here.

It will get vastly worse before it gets better.
Just remember this post. Remember it when your life suffers in a few years time for the decision made by retards.
At best, we'll get a quick deal with America.
At worst, we'll actually get a quick deal with America, meaning more shitty cheap and toxic products, food and other shit being peddled to people. MMM, I LOVE FRUCTOSE, REALLY FILLS A NICHE IN MY LIVER.

>No they won't you retard. France won't want the rest of the world knowing that they willingly allow people to cross a hard border undocumented. It's in their interests to stop illegal immigrants entering the UK.
You are the retard, a country doesn't have to check people leaving, only those entering. (Airports are a different matter, but these people will be on boats and literally walking through the channel tunnel)

>The economy will be fine, stop overreacting and wait and see what happens.
No it won't, it will be shit. The surge in exports after brexit was people jumping on the weak pound and buying up stocks before the prices go way up due to relying on EU imports to produce end products. Furthermore, the UK makes fuckloads of money being the de facto global financial center, which it is because of it's access to the EU and conveniently being in a timezone that can do business with the US and far east in the same business day. Frankfurt will be getting this.

Brexiteers are retarded and should be culled.

> Frankfurt will be getting this.
Also Dublin.
There's a few banks pushing for Dublin to become the new global financial hub.

I honestly cannot wait for the mountains of salt when the chavvy cunts that voted for brexit want to go to ibiza or magaluf. They will be livid when it's quadrupled in price. Hope the cunts get aids.

Dublin will be getting a fuckload of IT jobs due to Brexit. Good luck to 'em.

>all these tears
When everything is fine in five years and we're better off for leaving a failing union will you lick my arse and stop being a bunch of insufferable cunts?

And we haven't even/not going to leave either!

Don't forget all those pre-EU cunts that want to go holidays and cruises outside the UK like they usually do every year.
aahaha, I cannot fucking wait.
They'll be absolutely fucking ASSMAD on levels like never before.

I'm considering it myself.
I like Ireland. Shame about the Irish. Na they're fine. ish.

I'll suck all 27 of your cocks if the country is fine.

Just got my surface i5 pro for only $1000

>I'll suck all 27 of your cocks if the country is fine
Well I only have one but I definitely would've held you to sucking that one if I could. In lieu of sucking my dick, would you instead go to your local gay bar and offer to suck off any depraved faggot in the bogs who happens to take your fancy?

>putting this much effort into defending your mistake on an Uzbek binturong-tossing board
For what purpose? You're anonymous here, you silly nitwit. Just admit you got cucked by kippers and move on with your life.

I will indeed.
In fact, I will hit up a once-friend-turned gay furry and actual animal fucker.

>fine in five years

You genuinely think a nation of 70m+ people is going to be able to completely change how they do industry and agriculture in 5 years? Are you delusional? The UK is a service economy, providing something which none of the other EU nations did, while getting the gaps in the UK's supply chain filled by other EU nations imports. And you really do think that this will be solved in 5 years?

Fuck me.

You are one dense cunt, stop posting you thick shit.

I have such a hard time believing it'll make things better.

b-b-but muh tata steel, muh oil, muh shale gas!
Britain number 1!
We'll just fish a lot and sell it to them! Right guys? We can open all those fish ports again!

lmao five years.
The UK producer economy is so dead it is hilarious.
We gave up SO MUCH for the EU that we will collapse trying to convert back.
10 years maybe. And probably 5-10 million deaths from extreme poverty and crime later.
People seriously don't realize how FUCKED the UK is going to be in a month onwards.
They think it will be like it is currently. OH BOY are they in for a major shock to the system.

10 years to actually have a plan, 25 years to actually get it self sufficient, but the UK will never be competitive again.

Pretty much. Pretty much.

Luckily I can farm and live in some delicious soil.
Will hold over until I transfer shit out and leave this cesspit.
I'm not having half my life shit on by ancient people that should be put down for being legally retarded.

Good luck my man, luckily for me I already left, and get to watch the arseholes burn with their fucking sovereignty,

The brutally ironic part is most of the ones that Sup Forums hates come from former commonwealth countries which have a separate immigration treaty.

I didn't make a mistake, I got what I voted for and things are going how I expected they would at this stage. Things will improve. The only thing that pisses me off is that raging faggots such as yourself will get the benefits of this despite doing everything you could to stop it happening.

Nothing is gonna change. The EU isn't going to turn away UK business just to spite us.

I'd argue better but I'm lying in bed and typing on my phone. Time for sleep now.

>(((Microsoft)))

Worst part is the politicians are pushing it through because they fear for their cushy jobs as voting against it could mean they lose the next local election.

> The EU isn't going to turn away UK business just to spite us.
Most of them are multi-national companies and large numbers of them are moving out of the UK soon.

Our glorious home-grown UK businesses are fucking SHIT.
Our banking sector, for example, is a joke. It only exists to allow others in to the sector from other countries.
I forgot the proper term for it, but it is like hosting something deliberately inferior to allow superior competition to take the limelight. Oh, The Wimbledon Effect, that was is.
A large part of the success of Britain as a service hub for the world is owed to the fact WE GIMPED OUR OWN BUSINESS IN EVERY INDUSTRY.

Good luck. 5 years lmao.

>The EU isn't going to turn away UK business just to spite us.

They are. German industry has already sided with the EU, the UK is one of their biggest markets, and they'd rather not have any dealings with the UK. France has repeatedly said that it will be difficult for the UK to get a beneficial deal with the EU.

Regardless, i'm glad you're going to sleep, because you are a very simple cunt, your ramblings are retarded and making everyone around you that much more moronic, and i really do hope you choke in your sleep.

You need to be punished for Brexit, that's why.

lol so salty.

5th largest economy, tiny country.

Check global and EU wide growth rates

stay salty, salt-face

5th largest economy from multinational company investments, large numbers moving off-shore.
Ya IDIOT.
Go to bed, your eyes are breaking.

Depends what fields you mean... the UK has a relatively decent technical, science and media sector. And it's pretty good at the luxury sector. Theres the finance sector, but they are half the reason we're in this mess and are prepared to abandon ship.

But we are going to be in the shitter regardless, because not everyone can work in those industries.

>still in the denial stage

user, you need to just give up

was 4th largest economy, so brexit has already dropped the UK a place and A50 hasn't been invoked yet.

I really don't know what i'm going to do to be honest, by and large, i do love the UK, i love my family who for the most part are stuck here, i do have an Australian citizenship, but going across the world is a pretty scary prospect and i have no idea what i'd do when if get there.

The economy going down the toilet has pretty much ruined my hopes of having a nice little book & coffee specialising in sci-fi, fantasy and /tg/ stuff.

t. A C Grayling

fucking hell you Sup Forums lot are a bunch of pussy fags

Dublin has the same time zone as London

That's the main reason it is a direct competitor

Science sector has already said Brexit is going to be horrific for them.
I know some that have already left the country to the US, Germany and even Africa permanently. (food researcher trying to make a common African root capable of mass production )

There was some technical investments in spite of Brexit. IBM one of them. But IBM are also infamous for being fucking stupid in the past few decades. A monolithic giant dying a slow death. (kinda fitting, as Britain once was similar)

Media exports will be fine. It's an industry that will likely benefit slightly. Digital content creation especially. (thank you jebus)

Convert your entire finances to Aussiebucks before A50.
Once the pound smashes in to the ground, convert back. Enjoy your quick profit at the expense of your local exchange.
Not like anyone will be travelling any time soon.
It is 100% guaranteed the pound will smash in to the ground even harder than it has now.
How long it stays like that isn't known.

Or put your money in investments ASAP. More so ones likely to stay stable or even go up. (any index not directly related to Brexit happenings)

Because you retards are leaving the common market.

Will that really be relevant once the UK leaves? It seems to me that being in the same time zone as the continent would be more desirable at that stage.
t. Dublin NEET savouring the UK's imminent collapse

GMT is handily able to do business with NYSE and Nikkei in the same day.

The time-zone is only really important because it means the biggest open markets around the world at working hours.
Specifically captures some of the US, Europe and some Asia.

Pretty much the only reason London is worth anything.
Without it, it'll be about as much worth as... fucking Blackpool.

I have this feeling of dead that the pound is going to hit £1 = 80 US cents around the time of A50, nobody believes me, seem to think we'll muddle through okay.

Though i do think if there was a second referendum it'll swing over to remain, it was fucking tight as it was, and with all the lies and bullshit exposed, i'm pretty sure we'd get enough for a narrow remain win.

and yet its still worth more than the american dollar. worth more, but costs more. just microsoft using it as an excuse to increase their profit margins. either that or retaliation against britian for abandoning the globalist agenda.

or more than likely it's because the pound is worth less than it was.

fuck off you idiot.

Big problem with a recount is the EU would have us pay hell for damaging the markets.
We did a fair bit of damage to the Euro as well as the GBP.

Either way we suffer. But staying would be better overall, even if horribly shitty.

I was for staying and ganging up on Brussels-Germany duopoly of the EU with all the other countries.
Spain and France would have been for it. Italy too. Italy fucking hate Germany.

Catholicism isn't Christianity, it is Satan worship.

A lot of alt-righters seem to think that the UK had no power in the EU... but in actuality we more or less headed up a voting bloc and were able to get our way most of the time.

>worth less
>yet still worth more than the dollar
fuck off pleb

so is the UK getting shaffted by microsoft over surface pro?

according to google:

>so £1,449 = 1811.32 US Dollar
if user here is correct, and is correct with the £1,449 starting then yeah it really sounds like the UK was getting wayyy over charged for the surface pro long before this price hike.

I bought and returned a surface book last month because it was shit

should've waited and ebayed it for profit, fuck

>1 Dollar used to buy you .80 pounds
>now the same dollar buys you .90 pounds

hes sorta right. he linked the wrong page. but hes still right, UK is getting charged more.

>starts off at $1,499.00 american
so $1,499.00 american is 1198.91 British Pound according to google. so UK has been, and still are, getting over charged comapred to america.

you have to be 18. see and no matter what, UK are paying more than america are for the surfaces and they have been long before this recent price hike. the starting price should be £1198.91 instead of £1,449.00.

and to make it more clear, £1198.91 to match the american starting price of $1,499.00. starting it off at £1,449.00 is the american equivlent of $1811.39 according to google at the current value of the pound to dollar.

It's not too crazy if you factor in the 20% of VAT, a EU thing that they didn't get rid off apparently.

>Getting rid of EU things when you're an EU member

>Between October 1940 and 1973 the UK had a consumption tax called Purchase Tax, which was levied at different rates depending on goods' luxuriousness.[5]

>Introduction to exchange rates and pricing

Exchange rates don't define the cost of goods produced globally.
Spending power of the country does.

You get (got) more bang for your Pound than you do for a Buck (locally), which is why the price is "higher" than the exchange rate says it should be.
This is also why half of America are on semi or permanent welfare for the foreseeable future, despite a more healthy GDP.
