    I was looking for this site the other day but couldn't remember the name of it, I just ended up on the outlet store. I think I might get more system for my money with that one, for £20 I can double the memory and harddrive and a decent processer which will be good because I can use it as the main storage point for things. We're not bothered about funky graphics cards or anything because they're only playing flash games on websites and stuff.

    Anyone reccomend some good sites for cheap TFT monitors? :rotfl:

    re.cheap monitors.
    Ebuyer sent THIS a few days back.
    Move along, nothing to see.

    > main storage point for my photos and music.
    Not a good idea,- 1st it sounds like your only backup, and you should have two copies.
    2nd Your two boys will no doubt do something wrong sometimes and wipe your only backup.

    Be very wary of prices on outlet - they often look good but when you add vat and delivery THEN compare them to what dell are doing on their main site sometimes theres no benefit. Also often Dell do cracking deals with monitors, so this can offset the saving on outlet if you're buying the screen separate.

    Try www.dmxdimension.com - they have details of the best ongoing Dell deals. Also, deals often change on a thursday, and usually for the better.

    I bought a Vostro 200 a little while ago and its excellent. Theres a deal on there for a Core 2 Duo 2.0Ghz machine, DVD writer, 250GB HDD, 3Gb RAM, 17 inch TFT widescreen for £316 delivered. You 'could' upgrade the monitor to 19 inch widescreen for another £52 but that takes it desperately close to another deal on dmxdimension of a Core 2 Duo 2.53Ghz, DVD writer, 320GB HDD, a dedicated graphics card for £375 delivered.

    Also, dont forget www.quidco.com. Use the e-value code from dmxdimension, then go via quidco to get 7% cashback (on ex vat price).

    Hope this helps.

    lol don't worry I have all my stuff backed up regulary and I always protect my albums from being touched so there is nothing they can do.

    Thanks PG, dmxdimension site is also another I was looking for but couldn't remember the name of.

    The outlet one is a fab deal even including VAT and delivery, the only let down is lack of monitor, I'll have a look see if there is anything on there including the monitor.
