    Hmm, that's interesting. Does anyone have one of these? As changing gfx isn't an option I can assume it's onboard gfx!:(

    Does it use a standard ATX motherboard though?

    It's annoying that I cannot opt out of a monitor, as I won't need one. Still, at 350eur, it's a good price for a PC.

    I agree (knock the warranty down to 90 days to get the €349 price ) and change the mouse to optical so go with Maytos link .

    This deal was €338 before christmas but with a cd rom not a cdrw/dvd combo as at present

    No AGP slot but heck !

    The 512MB RAM offer stands until the 4th of Jan, so not long now. After that, the standard memory supplied is 256MB.

    I'd still like to know if the mobo is standard ATX, and is the onboard GFX any good?

    Wasn't there an Outlet store or something, that was for end of line stuff? I need a computer, but monitor, keyboard and mouse are not required.

    The outlet store prices are terrible at the moment. I've been watching it for ages. They might drop the prices on the outlet after the xmas sales to clear stock, but not before then I reckon.

    My 4600 which is the same chassis has a ATX PSU but the motherboard is not ATX. Standoffs and rear panel are different. But to be honest you don't buy a cheap dell to go hacking it. No upgrade potential, and no graphics ability. As a cheap office machine it would be good, or a PVR which is what I was thinking of.

    I was wondering if someone want the machine only and ordered a TFT would it make sense to buy it and then split it. But you can buy a new TFT seperately from somewhere else for about the same money.

    Well, I've just ordered one, though I spent a bit extra by adding a 1 year warranty and upped the CPU to 2.8 Celeron (machine is a present for somebody so I don't want the hassle of fixing things). Still not bad for 433eur delivered! :)

    I too have been watching and watching and there are a couple of overpriced machines but there are one or two higher spec models which are about and extra €350 off discounted prices (less the monitor). I got one for €900 which is normally €1,600 (less monitor)
