Default currency conversion questions

I know the answers to these questions are temporary since these things
change so often, but it should give me a ballpark, anyway.

Could someone tell me what 8.00 UK pounds is in US dollars?

Also, how does 5.99 EUR translate to American dollars?

Thanks!

Haven't got a calc. handy & in a rush so 1 GBP (Great Britain Pound) =
1.8 USD & 1 GBP = 1.45 EURos

My trusty online conversion site (
http://www.onlineconversion.com/) gave
these figures:

Friday, March 17, 2006

8 British Pound = 13.99488 US Dollar

5.99 Euro = 7.24161 US Dollar

You can use google too, just type "8 pounds in dollars" or "5.99 euro in
dollars". The results are, respectively, $13.96 and $7.2


I guess the dollar is stronger today than it was last night when folks
answered, saying that 8 pounds in US dollars was $14.40.

Thanks everyone, for all the suggestions for conversion sites and the
answers! I've been looking for a Canadian CD, but it appears to be out
of print in Canada. However, it was apparently was a huge hit in Germany,
because there are many German sites selling new and used copies.
