Thanks Rob.
I did point her in the direction of Tierone from a previous time u
recommended it. Out of interest, have you actually ever bought a
computer from them? I too would definitely consider buying a new
computer from them (if I needed one).


Not a computer no, but I did buy the kids PS3 from them back in 2009 (just before Christmas) and it's still working fine.

I gather some of the kit they sell is ex-catalogue, refurbished and returned stuff (for instance my PS3 had a damaged box but the console inside was in perfect condition) and ex-corporate stuff (presumably this Dell is ex-corporate).

At £130 it's possibly worth a punt, you get a 90 day warranty and it's cheaper than some of the laptops I've seen on eBay which either have no warranty or 7/30 days.
