    Inlaws want a rig

    Helloo ooo scanny peeps.

    my In-laws are after a rig to see them into retirement, basic web, office, family history, etc. As they are a fair few miles from me, and I don't fancy running up there every 5 minutes, I thought of you lot.
    Currently considering
    http://3xs.scan.co.uk/ShowSystem.asp?SystemID=1123
    and this monitor
    http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/22-Di...-7001-Speakers

    I would change a few options on the base unit (using your inbuilt options).

    Any idea what the delivery time frame currently is? They would probably go for the deliver and setup option, I assume that would include plugging the monitor in? And would the monitor come with a cable?

    Cheers

    Jon

    Hi Flibb,

    Great to hear that you're considering a 3XS system. Your choice of machine is spot on with regards to the spec required for those sort of general home use machines.

    We're roughly 10 working days from the point of ordering at the moment, always ridiculously busy in the 3XS dept, especially since the launch of the GTX460's!

    The 3XS Delivery Team will indeed come and set up the hardware and all peripherals including monitor, mouse, keyboard and speakers where necessary, providing the setup option is selected.

    The Digimate monitor comes bundled with a standard VGA cable and the 3.5mm audio cable required to connect to the monitors' speakers

    Hope this helps

    All the best
