Yes as we're always saying, component prices go down very quickly. Get it much nearer Christmas as by christmas time I'm sure it'll be down at least £50 or you could get better specs for a better price nearer christmas.

Why would you go duo, when you can go quad! Prices drop very fast, wait until close to Christmas, then ask;). This should be closed IMO.

You'll just have to get over what I've said then, because MY OPINION is that this thread is pointless, Christmas is too far away to decide which computer is best.

You'll just have to get over me stating my opinions.

HotelUser, has it ever crossed your mind, he didn't think they'd be cheaper?
Will you stop being so arrogant and acting as if you're some "untouchable" person.

How comes you've got such a ratty attitude lately? You used to keep opinions to yourself and be very friendly and helpful, now you're somewhat of a jerk, to be honest...

As everyone said, wait till Christmas. But for now, you could look at parts for a computer and calculate a price, maybe even get it for an early Christmas present :P

I kept my opinions to myself? Twice I was fired for not keeping my opinions to myself:P.

Wait until December before you decide.

It's beginning to get rather annoying and your above most the people you argue with so I wouldn't bother.
