    Have a look at dabs.ie or komplett.ie (used by many boards members).

    I've dealt with Marx Computers (marxcomputers.ie) and found them pretty good. Try Peats as well.

    +1 for Marx Computers.
    I've been dealing with them for several years, always a good experience and great after sales :)

    I thought Elara had filed for liquidation a while back!? Not by the looks of it! They've got a spanking new website alright! (The orignal was diabolical!)
    All the above recommended sites are reputible and great value compared to the likes of PC World and Maplin but I still favour Komplett :)

    Yeah elaras old site was quite bad. They have a system builder now as well (or at least they did a while ago). When I seen it, it wasn't as good as kompletts but it had more options which was good.

    Looking at marxcomputers and their prices seem a little steep. 120GB 2.5" drive for €100, whereas a 160GB 2.5" drive is only €95 on maxburns.
