          ???????  Well just make sure that you have the software for it.  Personally I think its a terrible os.  But still okay but give it like as long as between xp an 2k. should be alright.

          £900 is pretty nice budget. I'm sure, you can get decent machine straight from the store for that price. Legit, warranty, and all that.

          I still think for £400 = $720 you can get decent, new machine.
          IMO, I'd avoid buying main computer on eBay.

          i have researched new ccomputers in the UK and i have to say that i wish i could buy from Newegg!
          the prices in the US are much lower than in the UK on most components
          i want to get the most out of my money and this is the best way as far as i can see

              shipping would be costly.
