I buy off them on a regular basis & they most definitely do ship to Ireland.

You need to make the transaction using "Google Checkout" as it's the best method if you are Irish based.

Not a bad price for a system with a good CPU.

One thing I don't see any mention of though is the PSU. I wonder what the PSU's wattage is and what power connectors does it have, e.g. does it only have short SATA power connectors like some Dell Vostros?

right so I'm gona take a chance.

E566 for this delivered with 1gb Nvidia card and another 2gb memory
and a 22" HD monitor, oh and a keyboard.

So ....now the procrastination.

I was gonna learn how to cuda code on it, I only wanna use Ubuntu anyway and maybe watch some movies.
