    Do you work for Nasa or something. £2000? What's wrong with a cheap one?

    If you can only get a £200 credit limit on your card, I suspect you may have trouble getting 2k from Dell. Looking at your posts, I'm intrigued why you seem to want credit and more credit? I know it's none of my business, but debt isn't much fun, cos you have to pay it back one day (with interest).
    Ever get the feeling you are wasting your time? :rolleyes:

    £2000 :eek:

    I think you need to seriously look at what you will be using it for - Even a top spec machine should only cost £800 - £1000 these days...

    Also this line on the dell finance page would make me run a mile from the finance anyway, no matter how much I wanted to spend - "Our rates start from 13.9%, but our typical rate is 18.9%. "

    From a money saving point of view - not a good deal!
