for suitable forms of torture to inflict on the online UK computer component retailers, none of whom have the CPU I want (Xeon W3520) in stock. Grrrr.

Is there anything more annoying than having an almost complete new system sat in boxes on living room carpet?

Benefit from free trade, buy from somewhere in the EU! Some of those places have them in stock, and some of those have English versions of their websites, if you're monolingual like me.

That may have some merit. Anyone know the German for 'out of stock' / 'in stock' ?

No, but Google does. Ones that have it in stock are colour-coded green too.
