Bargain TFT (?) be quick
very cheap, but dell always is.

Difference is, Dell actually make decent TFTs whereas their computer quality is questionable.
Its £230 or so from aria for a lower model (16ms). It must be noted that this only has an analogue input.

yup might have had it if it had DVI
my laptop has been OK, had a few things wrong but i supose your not ment to use a laptop for about 10 hours or more a day, lasted about 1 1/2 before something went wrong though. there computers are really good i think, my school computers are dell, 5 years old now and used at least 7 hours a day and left on over night.The Negotiator said:
thing i find with dell is you dont get a lot off bang for your buck. i got a mesh PC last time and the spec was way higher than anything dell or the like would have offered for the price

Computers unused shouldn't be left on overnight, tell your school it is costing them about £150/computer/year - if the unit charge for energy is similar on a commerical account.
My school probably had (just in comp rooms) about 100 computers or so, that would be £15,000/year. It's a lot of wastage.....

Your right. Dell screens are actually made by samsung in wynyard park in hartlepool. So good screens.
when i took my dell laptop apart it was like, sony, hitachi, samsung and other makes too.
what did you expect to find in there? they build PC's,not components.

some of us dont have a clue tho, so in the end would cost more in repairs, and setting it right when you "accidentaly" break of a little bit of metal, or put i wire, or spill something

I was one of them a couple of months ago........a couple hour's research does wonders!
tbh its not rocket science to put a computer together. about the same as fitting a HU or speakers...

cant do either
and i dunno what i need, how fast stuff should be
alo, id spend far to much, the case i want costs 100quid alone!
lol, i built mine for about 500 quid. And apart from the graphics card its all top stuff, because i need to run Reason and Cubase, which are very demanding programs...
Probably somewhere around a grand...
