That's really not all that cheap. It's not expensive either, but it isn't amazing, you could build one yourself for about that.

Just to qualify what I said, all you are being offered there is
Motherboard & Processor - £175 2 sticks of RAM - £40 Floppy Drive - £5 Case - £30 80GB Hard Drive - £40 DVD-ROM - £20 Keyboard - £5
That comes to about £315.

Where do you buy your components? I'm going to build myself a PC when I get back from holiday and would like to get them cheaply for obvious reason :)

i'll prolly loose the weight on that crap keyboard....309,15 GBP [¤460].
i'll settle for that, but by the time i have enuf money i'll opt for 2x512 sticks and a 160GB hdd.
BOGALA/GIGINGER the dealer is at www.aquado.net german based, apparently selling directly to companies, rather than everyday consumers.
to get to the configurator, you'll need the following info;
Kundennummer: 88888 Postleitzahl: 47011

aaaah, saves on the taxman....
my main reason to get a company here in germany is to keep from getting kicked outta the country...when you're employing 3 germans its kind of politically incorrect to send that person back to aussie land even if they dont have proper papers....:)

mine was $1680AU (about $1260US) 8 months ago and i even built the thing myself
Power supply 480W i think (could be more) $150 80GB HDD $180 ASUS P4S8X Mobo $150 P4 2.4Ghz processor $300ish 2x kingmax 512 ram $300ish 128mb ATI Radeon 9200 $180 cd burna $60 dvd player $60 digi doc 5+ (can't remember, $100 maybe) modem $20 case $50 other shit fdd + cables, etc. $50 7 fans, guards, etc. $80
but i spose it was 8 months ago and prices were higher back then, but that still doesn't include the extra shit like the monitor, speakers, kb/m, printer and scanner. total is over $2000US.
