They're decals for god's sake! You'll only get a 20-25 fps drop, well worth it.
Thanks Dan
Difficult without a doubt. First it's not based on Latin in any way I can see, unlike most European languages. Worst of all, when I have painstakingly worked out something to say my wife will tell me "You should have said ~~~ssa or ~~lla or ~~sta", or any one of a hundred affixes rather than the one I settled for! Aaaaagh! 
It's very red and shiney! What HAVE you been up to? 
Nooooo! I've bought an apartment already. The wife's family are already settled there, I can't ask them to move! What's so bad about Kerava? It has Prisma, Kahveri, Anttila and McDonald's as well as Hesburger
Thought of something myself. Pedestrian crossings. Pedestrians use them at their peril! Whenever I stopped to let someone use the crossing, they looked at me as if it were a trick! 
Believe it or not. I like that too!
Ooooh yes they do!
Kaalilaatikko. Nothing better.
Silli, makkara, ruisleipä, viili, piimä, pulla, poronliha, lohi the list goes on. Nami nami!

What am I getting into here? 
Fascinating stuff. 
Thanks for your input. No-one has said anything to put me off. I admit to being surprised that there wasn't more negativity given that there must be a majority of younger people here. Very refreshing.

I DO love the way Finns react to stupid interviewers and their inane questions.
Some interesting observations. ä Damn! It does work outside of Word. I can safely say I now know everything!
As for driving in Finland, it is my impression that there is less 'hurry up' and more patience among the majority of Finnish drivers.
I have driven a lot in Helsinki (rush hour traffic is like a Sunday afternoon in Chelmsford) Vantaa is the only airport I've been able to drive out of without being hassled, except Jerez.
Paavo, don't worry about ..*the neighbours*. You're in the EU now, we'll sort them out if they give you any trouble. :grouphug:

It's a pity that a lot of us are not so specific about ours eh?
I have a sauna in my house now and y'know what? It wont sell unless I take it out!. The English don't know what they're missing with sauna.
Irriatates the hell out of me when people say saw-na........then giggle.
Gotta do better than 'I've heard'.
Worst thing about Finland?
Given that there are many Finns on these forums I thought I'd ask the question. What is, in your opinion, the worst thing about living in Finland?
You see, my wife (she's a Finn but hasn't lived there for 40 odd years!) and I are going to retire to Finland in the near future and although we've visited many times you never get to REALLY know a country until you've lived there for quite some time.
I know about the weather: Winter is the best time for snow imo
I know about the difficult language: I know quite a bit of Finnish and expect to get better at it. But at a push many Finns speak English to a higher standard than many Englishmen!
What else?

OK, that's cool. Thanks.
Yes he did but this was on lap 3 of 6 so plenty of laps left to do the penalty. Kyoto GP btw.
Can't find any reference to this one. Pitted on lap 3 of a 6 lap race, exceeded the limit as I crossed the line leaving the pits and got a 30 second time penalty. What happened to DT and S-G penalties? Did they get lost in the move or did I do something untoward?
