    The £100 xmas present

    I have been told I have a budget of around £100 for something this christmas.

    I have

    SN45G
    512mb PC3200
    Ti4800se
    Pioneer 106 DVDRW
    120gb Hitachi 180gxp hard drive

    anything there worth upgrading or should i go for something non-PC related?

    Cheers

    What, you mean a stand alone player?

    Toshiba SD330E looks good for the money. I have it's predeccessor, the SD220E, and it's good.

    Other than that, apart from RAM, for £100.00, not much worth upgrading. Another Hard Disk? Logi MX700 mouse? (£50.00) with fancy glass mouse mat?

    New mobile phone?

    I dunno

    I'm a bit livelier today, so here's a link for Richer Sounds DVD Players: Richer Sounds DVD's

    Multi Region Toshiba SD330 is £79.00, only in black though.

    A good quality Scart cable is £20.00 = £100.00.

    Richer sounds is well good! I get most of my Home Cinema shizzle from there!

    It seems like they always have some kind of sale going! It's great
