in Shop but don't drop
I have just bought a pentium d 1.6 ghz(dual) with a 160 gb hard drive and 1ghz memory and also vista premium on it with a 17" basic tft monitor for only £314.95 from pc world. Only thing the pc is referbished(faulty return). Regardless where can you buy a pc with a similar spec for less than £499 ?

    Actually he's posted the credit check thing twice aswell albeit on a different board;)

    I wouldn't mind but it's just a link to PCWorld and i bet that PC you have bought is the only one instore it's not like we all have a chance to go and grab ourselves this wonderful bargain.

    Do not forget if your system has a problem of any sort with dell then you have to pay them extra to come out and all of it is by phone where as pc world you get a 1 year on site warranty.
