    I'll hazard a guess of https://www.newegg.co.uk as NewEgg.com bought the domain in 2001 :D

    Only info I can see says they may soft launch end of March

    newegg us website is one of the easiest website to navigate around. And it gives enough details that you don't need to go to manufacture website to check the spec.

    Whoopty doo. All I want to know is is it cheaper than amazon and ebuyer, if not I can't see the point. Even if a website has spec on its advert, I always check the manufacturers website in case its wrong, only an idiot would go by what a sales advert says.

    While we all love to grumble about prices going up, electronics and computers continue to drop in price....... I mean tablet and smartphones from £50.......HD flat TV's from £100 upwards.....HD camera/camcorders from £50.....the list goes on and on.....

    Many of us remember our first dekstop PCs costing £1200 or more and having less power than a £50 tablet.

    I remember talking about how the price of memory was now throwaway cheap - at £50 a megabyte.

    Yes, megabyte.
