No real input, other than I was googling to try and find out the motherboard chipset, and found this technically detailed US thread:-

Additionally if you can find one instore, and know an employee you could benefit from their staff discount, it used to be 10%, but may have changed on these type of offers....................every little helps!

staff get 10% off anything..... (not nappies, formula milk)
so 10% off that pc = bargain plus use your club card vouchers or one of the numerous tesco direct vouchers hanging about on hotukdeals

Had a glance... some of the stuff is way out of date it stretches quite a bit back- talking about AGP graphics cards for example, and it is 100% American, so comments on delivery & service are not going to bear out too well here

The chipset is... from mine using Everest:

North Bridge Intel Bearlake G33
South Bridge Intel 82801IR ICH9R

As I understand it, the motherboards are Foxconn, but with Dell tweaked Bios.
