    Hi All, decided from the comments on my last thread "Alienware,value for money" (cheers for the comments by the way, some really helpful stuff there), to do a bit more shopping around before having over 4 big ones surgically removed. Anyone checked out this latest offering from Jess, not released yet but the specs look fairly good and a really good price. Read some reviews on the mobo, graphics card and chip and it all looked good, apart from the case which is a bit of a beast but for the price (1199 not sure if that includes VAT) I wouldn't be too bothered. Could always get a new case anyway, that is if I can move the hard drives, whats this about "fixed disks"?
    So any thoughts anyone?

    Just remember that is missing a screen and speakers and keyboard and other small stuff - apart from that it's a fantastic box! Also make sure they haven't actually run out of them, last I checked there were none left for one of the two available computers.
