Does anyone here know anything about a scheme that was used to sell pcs to people through work. the home training initiative it was called. I heard that you paid your pc off over 3 years and then paid a small final payment. is this still run by anyone? does anyone know which companies offer it?

    The Home Computer Initiative (HCI) scheme was what it was called. It was great, I got a new PC and a 37 inch monitor through it. Unfortuantely, it was too popular and Gordon Brown killed it off 2 years after he introduced it.

    See here for more info on it.
