Lidl PC - different one

After the success of my post last week :rolleyes: :rolleyes: about a PC at Lidl I thought i'd post this new one.

http://www.lidl.co.uk/gb/home.nsf/pages/c.o.20060608.p.TARGA_Ultra_3700_PC

Just to reitterate, I have no idea if this is a bargain or not, but please before stating that you can find better spec for less money, be prepared to provide a link to this better option or people will get a little annoyed!!

    looks over priced to me, some thing llike that could be brought for a lot cheaper at your local pc shop, i am suppirsed a computer person is posting such an item, no monitor and what graphics card? a pc is as only as fast as its slowest part, and since when has a 56k modem been "high end equipment"? i think even dell could do better than this!

    You said you don't know if it was a bargain, needstoknow said it wasn't, but for you to say post a link to a better one is absurd. Using your logic everyone could post individual posts for every item in the Argos website and say "I don't know if this is a bargain but if it isn't prove me wrong".

    I appreciate the notification of the PC but not the find one better attitude.

    Cheers anyway :)

    That's nonsense. If you don't use the modem, it won't slow down the machine, will it? And you'll only use the modem if you want to do analogue dialup.
    i think even dell could do better than this!
    Do they? I've never heard of an analogue dialup modem that is faster than this.
    well u know think b4 u post!

    I have to agree with Devild. You stated in your post that you didnt know if it was a bargain, well then there isnt any point in posting it. Otherwise we would all have to trapse through threads in a bargain forum just to find a bargain!
