£180 Dell Pentium 4 3GHz goes on sale

YOU NEED not be a zillionaire to buy a P4 3GHz anymore. MCS com is selling a Dell Dimension 4600 equipped with a 3.06GHz P4 with 512MB memory, 80GB HDD, DVD combo and onboard everything for a mere £180+VAT, after £50 discount. That's cheaper than Ebay.

If even this is too much for you then try that £105+VAT Dell Optiplex GX260SFF PC which comes with a Celeron 2GHz, 256MB memory and a 40GB HDD. Again, much cheaper than what you'd probably find on ebay. No news though whether they come with an OS. Don't forget that both systems are fully refurbished and comes with one year warranty.

Buy has two very good deals. First there's the Norton Ghost software that's almost free after two mail in rebates. At $0.99, that's a giveaway price for such a useful product. Ghost provides with an advanced backup and recovery solution for your PC.

The superb Logitech DiNovo Media desktop with Bluetooth KB media pad and mouse is available for $149.97 after rebate. With a five year warranty, a separate keypad and the bundle MX900 mouse. Its design is nothing short of stunning and ranks amongst the best input peripherals ever made.

Get your child to become an amateur photographer with that Veo Capture 1300 Digital camera. At $17.99, this entry level digital camera offers a 1.3MP resolution, a colour screen, a built in flash and even a Compact Flash slot. Available at Surpluscomputers. µ
