  • The same PC at Comet is £50 cheaper, which is what I'm thinking of buying.

    The only difference is that it comes with Windows XP MCE and you then have to send off for a "free" upgrade to Windows Vista premium (actually costs abot £15 handling charge)

    I'm planning on getting the upgrade but not installing it at least until SP1 comes out and fixes any early bugs. Possibly I won't instal it at all, just have it ready for when Microsoft stop supporting XP in a few years time

    ebuyer also have the Wndows XP one for 309.99 - check out the review of that one, people seem to think its pretty good.

    Other one maybe worth looking at is the £399 Medion one at Aldi
