Oh dear god yes

damn rite.....sweet pc that mate

I'd wait

Dual Core came through with little publicity for what it is.

Hang tight for multi core - each with a huge amount of RAM dedicated to specific roles.

won't be long

most of these machines are obsolete by the time they are delivered that is why they look a bargain
something will replace it within a month and be a superior machine at probably the same cost
it is the nature of the market

Sounds like a great machine, but is it really worth it?

You have to ask yourself what you want it for - if it's emails, internet, photoshop and a few games then you really don't need all that.

You could probably spend half as much and still have a great PC.

Sorry. Thought this was a thread about your forward line

Its a cracking pc altho I would only recommend it if you really must have a top spec one. I would love that pc for gaming. Aldi get fantastic pc's in every once in a while. They get amazing reviews and will set you back about half of that high spec one.

Make sure you get a European plug for it Mr I for when you move to froggyland

Top notch spec Mr I
If your pretty technical I'd reccomend building it yourself, You'd knock about £300-£400 off that price!
I didnt know they brought out 24" Wide Screen Monitors
