Need a new PC today for my sister (that means PCWorld)

[arbitor]

Dont do it!!!!

You can get a dell from their website for a good price with good support service and much cheaper, but you will have to ait a few days for delivery.

Whats the urgency?

Whats even more stupid is that you post on a forum then go and buy something an hour after your post without posting back to say thanks or whatever so therfor making this thread a waste of webspace.

Always used to make me cringe , those folk singers you heard using noni no as a chorus in a generally crappy song. never thought i'd be using it myself........

NONI NOanywhere but PCworld.

Oh God I'm using a computer from PC World as we speak (Not my fault ! I swear !) it's so **** aswell, crappy loud maxtor HDD that will probably die soon, **** gigabyte crippled motherboard, P4 with a 533 FSB (come on at least give me 800FSB), the worst graphics card ever (6200 LE TurboCache), 512MB of PC2-3200 RAM (Yeah REAL fast )an alright 250w FSP PSU and the worse case ever invented (impossible to get into)

Oh and possibly the worst 17" TFT EVAR ! So crap in CS:s I can't actually see anything in the shadows, despite pumping a cr@pload of brightness into this shoddy piece of junk.

It's all about taste guys. It seems the man likes PC world. I hope his sister likes it.

At the end of the day he has to live with what he's broughtknowing he was given good advise and ignored it. Nuff said

i went into pc world once to get a longer cable to link my dvd rw to my sound card. They had no clue what i was on about and had to radio/call for the 'proffessional' he then got the cable i needed but when i then when i said i needed an adaptor to give me and extra molex plug he was baffled never bought anything from PC world sinse.

saying that i bought a 17" CRT monitor from them yeeeaaaarrs ago and i still use it now when i come home from uni & that thing has had some serious frustration taken out of it

[Supershanks]

Gave up years ago after going in for some memory 128mb & asking if they had faster Nice woman , she thanked me for the explanation as i wemt out. But i think there are more horror stories about them than any 1 else in the uk. Don't know if they still do it but jacking up prices for shops at airports was a money spinner for a good while.

Well I wasn't flaming him, I was just giving him quality advise

Don't think any1 was juat the store.

My brother worked at PCWorld for a short while a number of years ago. It's not surprising that the staff know nothing - training is practically non-existent and they treat the staff so poorly that most of them leave after a few months. The managers are those who were too dumb to have left...

i'd drive to ocuk

IMex Confuses me. N-U-L ftw.
