Please revise the following message that appears on your website. It
borders
on illiteracy.
"I am ex-Royal Navy and a retired teacher. Our two boys have grown up and
have left the nest!
I took up an interest in computers in 1995 for the first time and used to
use a British Acorn RiscPC 600 for most of my work in Graphics and
Journalism. However, I now have a specially built Dual core Intel with a
512Mb graphics card and 2Mb RAM, which I need for Flight simulation, and a
1GHz Dell notebook."
It would look and sound more literate if you deleted the above and
substituted the following:

Nowadays I use a custom-built, dual core, Intel machine with 2Mb RAM and a
512Mb graphics card which I need for flight simulation. I also use a Dell
notebook."
I hope this helps. You have my permission to copy and paste this literate
version of your message into your website.
You're welcome. I don't mind assisting a former teacher. And, it gives me
insight into why so many Brits lack adequate written English skills.
