    Warning

    I'm deciding to take a full lunchbreak today, and may give you the gift of my presence.

    I'm new to London so I have to figure out my way from Picadilly Circus first though

    I come armed with a debit card!

    Well, I managed to get my way to Tottenham Court Road without fail, woot. Then the first issue arose, which bloody way do I go? Luckily I had foretold this predicament, and printed a map 10mins walking later I realised none of the street names were on the map and I had walked the wrong way Back I went, found it eventually, didn't realise it was so close to the BFI Library where I'd studied a lot.

    Shop is great, people are knowledgable, and best of all... STOCK! Just not of Vista Ultimate Retail which I want for the licensing and 32/64 bit versions. The guy that helpfully did point out I could buy 3 for almost the same price.

    Its nice seeing all the cases on display, I touched Im planning on replace the other PC in the house, Sempron 2x00 something Socket A crap that is slowly dying component by component.

    I spent about 45mins browsing, in a Black & White situation with good conscience telling me to go nuts as I've been paid. And the other telling me I still owe my girlfriend a holiday. The fact that I would have to carry, transport (on the tube, then on the train home) whatever beast I walked away with meant I started looking at smaller things. Laptops A possibly replacement for the other PC, its mostly my mother that uses it, and she doesn't like being tied to one seat upstairs in the spare room.

    A very impressive range of motherboards and graphics cards on display. Was tempted to purchase a few "transportable" sized bits and start a new build but sense overwhelmed me once again, d'oh

    I made note to the guy that was helping me I was from hexus and he explained the benefits to me, and there was a phone call too while I was there from another hexus member, own up

    Great shop, never seen a local PC retailer like it. Just a shame you weren't more local to me!

    Hey tobeman , I'm glad YOYOtech was a good experience for you .. don't forget the more you spend the more you save . The whole purpose of YOYOtech is to offer the customers the ability to actually "touch and feel" the products and then make a decision. so I guess its working ...maybe one day we will have a branch near you ....

    The place IS nutz - isn't it !

    You really have to see it to believe such a place exists south of Bolton

    Anyone reading this would have no idea what we mean - until you actually go in there and see the sheer depth of quality kit on show
