    I posted a thread yesterday about another offer - Fujitsu Minitower - £200 inc. VAT this time but a considerably higher spec eg DVD-writer, 512MB main memory, 80GB disk - and XP Home rather than Linux. They have a Celerion offer with 200GB disk for £25 more and an Acer Flat Panel at £100 inc VAT if bought at the same time.

    posted it in Grabbit While You Can as I believe the co (who I've dealt with for some time) bought one consignment with these prices.

    Sorry, should have specified was asking the OP, as he gives no details as to where he got it from - the dabs link is discontinued and can't be purchased.
