your paying a lot of money for basicly a blueray player that kind of cash would get you a really nice laptop or a 24" monitor and similar speced pc

Agree mostly with epz - you are paying a premium for a reduced-sized system unit (but it's not quite as small as what is often described as a 'net-top').

Id be asking myself would i use the blu ray dvd player ? its pointless in buying it if you dont even have any blu ray dvds to play

i want to get a top spec pc for around the £5 - £600 mark not to bothered about blu-ray as i have a ps3 but it is a added bonus... my parents bought a dell about 2 years ago and to be honest i always thought it was slow so im put off abit by that... over the last few months ive been looking at some mesh comps but they have a bad rep for customer service..just cant decide what to buy as i want to get the best for my bucks but with so much to choose from its a minefield

Most of my PCs have been built by myself, but I used to use Dells in work and they were very quick, and I know a few people who have them as home Pcs and they all work well and are well put together.

I have an Acer laptop which is pretty good and their support is not too bad.

I I had that sort of money, I'd be looking at a Dell.
Do not add on any extras as that is where they rip you off. Buy the basic PC as configured and make any changes afterwards.

I'd be looking elsewhere than dell in my experience there build quality is terrible, Some good priced compaqs around at the moment. Have a good shop around there are some really good deals possible at the moment

wait till mid-end sept when a few core i5 speced systems will be out, you essentially get core i7 920 performance for less money.

Dells are alright, obviously it varies depending on the spec.

Dell is good (cheap and robust machines) - have had my e520 since April 2007 without problems and recommended a mate to get a dell pc in 2006 and its still going ok (needs more memory in his pc now).

these are a few ive been looking at recently.. but what seems a good spec then seems to be let down by graphics card or some other component
