I would consider that a completely average price to be honest....I'm sure it's a nice machine and all but...

X4 620 is a budget processor as the cheapest quad core you can buy, 4Gb is fairly standard, 1Tb is decent, G210 is an ultra low performance graphics card...to be honest I'd go as far to say that it's not remotely any kind of bargain at all. I've seen the exact same spec machines in the likes of PC World for that price including a monitor...

Looking for a desktop c500.00, any more info on the PC World one ?
Store location ?

PC World in Mahon Point has nothing like that performance / price.

Was in the harvey norman in drogheda today just before it colsed. There was a LG 42" for 450e. Good price as far as I can tell. Was only in for a minute- then was kicked out when it closed. 450 for 42" - that must be a steal, and it's not some crappy brand from aldi. There was thee option of a 4 year extended warranty for 150e. Would it be worth it? Do lcd tv's go bust much? Does anyone know what model it wason offer so I can try do some research before haggling tomorrow...?????????

Thanks

If i had to guess i'd say it was a 42LH3000, which is a 1080p 50Hz set, with an integrated mpeg4 tuner, gettin it for 450€ would be a good deal
