Wow, thank you guys so much for that info. I knew I had come to the right place to ask around. I had heard that EVE was a bit of an uphill battle for new players, but for some reason that intrigued me more. I just bought a new Razer Naga mouse for my computer, and it's begging to be used for such a game I think, though I mainly bought it for Starcraft II. Unfortunately, I don't have any personal friends that play EVE, so I'd be delving into it without that support, as you mentioned might be difficult Derren. Decisions, decisions...

Also, sorry to hear about your mishap with online credit card fraud there Dot. I have had my own bad experiences with such...*shudders*
