XPS vs. Mac?

Ebuyer has its higher end value pc back in stock (though usually sells out pretty fast once it is)
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/159381
400£, quadcore phenom processor, 4gb ram, nVIDIA® GeForce GTS 250 512MB DDR3 Graphics Card, 640GB hdd etc

good value for money, i got my parents one a while back which works a charm (only issue is build quality can be a little dodge in some areas (the panel next to the card reader wasn't in right (just plastic bit to fill hole, nothing important)

Perfomance is solid though.

I hate to be a pain..

I meant to say Laptops haha

that does look really good though, thanks for the help anyway :0

By the way, you don't get a free iPod touch, it costs £20 And you have to pay the full price on purchase and then claim the money back by mail.

Well yeh but £20 is still nice haha

I like the look of Mac's but I think they are a tad overpriced for my liking haha

If you want a gaming laptop, I would go with Toshiba or HP, toshiba has a great gaming laptop for 1400USD I'm not sure of the conversion there. but it has great specs. I will post a link later tonight when I get off work. or when I'm not on my phone.

PC wize, with the comparison, probably the mac. Though only because dell are possibly the worst company out there in terms of selling Pc's dispite terrible support, terrible spec's and massive overpricing, the generally fall apart in less than a year. Totally recommend against anything dell, not had good experiences, nore known anyone who has.
For a big name, id go with http://www.meshcomputers.com , solid builds and pretty good spec - money ratios
If you want really cheap, keep an eye on the extra value range on ebuyer, you can get some incredible deals of that. Zoostorm also offers some pretty impressive specs (also seen on ebuyer)

Now you know one! In my house there's a Dell Dimension that's been running for 6 years and an 8 year old second hand optiplex as well as an inspiron laptop and they're all running fine I've had hard drive failures with the optiplex and the dimension but I've had hard drive failures with every hard drive I've ever had, they lasted a long time in comparison to some of the others I've had in my main PC

My dell dimension is almost 9 years old, and it still runs great.

Yeh funnily enough I lost my dell desktop coz of harddrive failure! Luckily all fiels were restored - I am still a fan of them though
