February 13, 200719 yr Ok - not the same spec, but my mate (s/ware developer) got a PC from Aldi last year, and said he was blown away by the spec for the money. http://www.aldi.co.uk/ - starts on thursday. No monitor, but they have one for ??99.
February 13, 200719 yr Author And they'll still charge you for a carrier bag to take it home in. PS Aldi's price is ??399.99, not ??99.
February 13, 200719 yr And they'll still charge you for a carrier bag to take it home in. PS Aldi's price is ??399.99, not ??99. yep - 99.99 is for the 17" monitor. Sorry - could have been a lot clearer. Still, ?399.99 is not a bad price for that spec. Edited February 13, 200719 yr by Drew Peacock
