    I just finished ordering my system, and nearly downgraded from my 2500A to the BenQ, but i read a few reviews, and teh 2500A is better. It only costs about 4 euro extra, and i recommend that over the BenQ one.

    Hmm, Jes definitely wouldn't be the quickest around. My NEC 2500a took just under 2 weeks to get here. I didn't have an option of courier when I ordered though I believe they added the option. GLS aren't exactly world-renowned for great service either.

    If you want it delivered fast, I'd recommend you buy it from Komplett.ie and use DHL as courier.

    Komplett are cheaper for graphics cards, but jes-computers are MUCH cheaper for DVD burners, the 2500A is 88 eur in jes, and is an 8x burner. The cheapest burner in komplett is 94 euro (maybe its 92) and its a 2X burner!

    There is simply no comparison.

    If you can afford the little extra then you should go for the LG, they are one of the fastest drives in general and are great quality.

    Benq...... no idea, NEC i have the ND1100a myself and its fine but you wont find any firmware upgrades for it and if you run into problems then i wouldnt be too confident about it (just from a couple of my mates experiences with it).

    Jes normally take 4-6days delivery to me which if fine!!

    [edit] Have a look at toms hardware review........ http://www.tomshardware.com/storage/20031027/dvd_burner-01.html

    JES are fine. They'll have your component shipped in a day or two. It's GLS that hold up the show. You can track your parcel on their website: http://www.gls-ireland.com . From my experience, they take weeks to deliver. I've had to collect 3 different packages from them having seen that the packages were sitting in their warehouse for over a week each! By the way, you have no choice when it comes to choosing a shipping company with JES - it had to be GLS. The German Post is not an option for shipping to Ireland.
