Comet sell Mesh computers, haven't bothered to investigate if they do good deals, however.
Just looked on the Mesh bit of the Comet website, and the deals are truely awful. Worse CPU, graphics card and less than half the hard drive space, for an extra £80.
What advantage does a quad-core CPU have over a dual-core?
Now, natch it'll have more multitasking ability, but is that actually going to be worth the extra cost?
I've found this computer, how does it compare to the other one?
Dell Dimension 9200

£699
Also, a specification of that PC has the 8800GTX (natch, it costs way more than I can afford), so I assume this could handle more power-requiring graphics cards that the other PC could.
well the 9200 will last for the foreseeable future with it having a quad core cpu. The graphics are a bit naff but overall not a bad set up for only £699
