But DON'T buy anything from MAplins. Look around - you can buy better parts cheaper elsewhere. Maplins are good for electrical bits, but their PC stuff is overpriced I find.

I COMPLETELY agree, I only meant they sold the book...
little things like £56 for a 20Gb HD are off putting at Maplin.

When I purchased a laptop from TIME i got an offer on the warranty. It stated that if I made no warranty claims within 5 years I got my money back.

Yes, but time know how reliable their products are and are probably 80% certain they won't have to refund.
At one point Time computers had a 40% failure rate within the quality control environment, and a 60% failure rate post shipping.
Then there was the courier who tended to make the assumption that the handle on the side of a box with a monitor in it was put there for loading them with a fork lift..
