    Hmm that could be debatable as he's asking what the cheapest is that you seen it not where you can get it etc so if he is doing some research or something them i guess that the Find me a bargain is not really that appropriate

    Anyway i saw one on at pc world for £99.97 a few weeks back

    If you can't get it at the price advertised then why would you want to see it? - it wouldn't be reflecting a real price.

    Re: Cheapest price you have seen for a 2TB hard drive ?

    I guess because he may decide it's worth waiting until something appears on Today Only or similar rather than buying at standard retail price today. It's fairly easy to predict when you'll need a new HD, so it makes sense.

    Yea if something has hit a certain price it is more than likely that it will hit it again/ i guess you could also use it as a bargaining tool "i've seen ... at £... what can you offer me?"

    Re: Cheapest price you have seen for a 2TB hard drive ?

    Also for the more general questions "how much would a 2tb HD cost me?" and "What is the sort of base price I should be looking at?" and "Is that a good price?"
    Sorry I cannot answer your question, I've not looked at the prices of 2tb HD's

    20 ? LOL - pointless offer then as they'l be gone in the first few seconds, and you can't even rely on the offer time, as last time they posted the offer a minute or two early...

    What is it you do exactly, if you don't mind me asking
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.
