I never thought I would find myself thinking that PCWorld would be anything like good value, but there was an ad in the paper over the weekend for a Packard Bell 2416 with a Core 2 Quad 8200 processor, a 20" monitor, 4g RAM and a 640GB HD for €699.
From what I can tell this actually appears to be good value compared to other machines I have been looking at. I've looked for reviews of this model online but can't find anything useful yet.
My mother bought a Packard Bell from them a few months back and after I priced up a similar spec with Dell, she saved money by buying from PCWorld.
Apart from the normal suggestions about queues and delays for after-sales service does anyone know of better value out there ? I need a reasonably beefy machine for high-def (AVCHD) video editing.
Thanks,
