Re: New pc required
If you fancy queuing up on Thursday, the Aldi Medion 8386 looks a well stuffed system for the price (£749)

Strong points: a P4 3.2GHz model 640 (that's the 2Mb cache version)
3 Year warranty.
Loaded! with 1024Mb RAM, 320Gb disk (2x 160), DVD writer & ROM, TV/DVB card and Worksuite 2005, all the bases are pretty well covered.
Weak points: Poor expandabilty, a small congested case and only two PCI (no PCI-X) slots free.
Motherboard: MSI special for Medion
Graphics: X740XL 128Mb (another special .. between X700 Pro and XT clock speeds).

Did some working out, and I couldn't build it for the price.
