The atmosphere is currently filled with hypocrisy so thick that it could be sliced, wrapped, and sold in supermarkets for a decent price and labeled, 'Wholegrain Left-Wing, Middle-Class, Politically-Correct Organic Hypocrisy'.

    1GB of memory on Vista Premium isn't enough I reckon.

    This has been doing the rounds on Hotukdeals for a while and they say it's a good deal with lots of people going for it mainly for the huge monitor:)

    The monitor is £200 on it's own.

    I'd say £279 for a base unit of that spec is a great buy.

    Not a particularly constructive comment. Yes, 2gb of RAM would be better, but you can get that extra RAM fairly cheaper from another retailer such as Crucial.

    It wasn't meant to be - it was just a comment. I'm sick of seeing PC deals with 1GB or less of memory with Windows Vista Premium installed, when most commentators KNOW that this is insufficient to run this PC smoothly. Badly designed spec - I would rather see XP come with this.
