    Typical, no mention of what processor, gfx, hd or memory. Dont be fooled about soundcard.....its onboard intel, they didnt add 1.
    I wouldn't recommend pc world from all i've read bout them. go to dell, you'll get a better deal with higher specs.

    Have a look elsewhere OP. Komplett would probably have a lot better for your money.

    Go to Dell. Pc World's reputation is not good. Their staff know nothing about pc's & they are always more epensive than online. Keep an eye out for deals on the dell site. Dell post deals on ebay also, usually pc's scratched? damaged in production ect. Do not buy off pc world

    Edit: Read these: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/searchbt.php?search=pc+world+problems&scope=4&order=1
    Speaks for itself really

    you can alsohave 2 hot swappable hdds for that pc. there are two hdds available. the 300gb @ 300$ and the 400gb for 400$. i used to work for pc world, and that pc is muck. nothing but problems with it. go to dell tbh. better spec with a 19" for much much less.

    Whatever you end up doing OP, get a decent warranty on the computer. Good luck. :)

    What were trying to say is, either do a custom build, or go to dell.

    Presume it will support vista when it comes out?

    Not bad for €1559

    Thinking for investing in it - I can claim the vat back so makes it more appealing


    1600 euro...do you have any idea what you can buy for 1600euro
    investigate with a friend who actually knows abouts pcs
    get him to build you one from komplett, for that money you would get a pretty much top specced pc/media center, good luck
