It's 'Mac' lol, not MAC. MAC is media access control/a very well known make-up shop in the US of A.

MAC = Makeup and cosmetics

I'd recommend www.powerc.co.uk

I got my PC for under £500, custom built to the starndards I wanted with a brill graphics card etc.

Not had any problems with it and it was built, tested and delivered within 2 days of purchasing it

Does it matter if it's in capitals or not? :rolleyes:

I was thinking of getting it, I got told the gfx card is a bit sucky for the price but it's okay I suppose, the gfx isn't much to me but you can always upgrade.. No OS and no monitor, but I just bought a 22" monitor for £125, so I'm sure you can find one around that price..maybe cheaper, depends what size you want.


I've looked around other sites as I'm after a base unit also.

yes it does because he said MACs, which makes to seem like initals for something. I was having a joke anyway. It's like saying oh I really love my TEL EVI SIO N (I have to put spaces or else the forum will make it lower-caps.) and my IPOD :rolleyes:

But if you said TELEVISION, or IPOD. People would know what you meant, they wouldn't think IPOD stood for something because it's in capitals. Don't get worked up over nothing, apple fanboy.
