    Where to purchase PC Products?

    I am looking into purchasing a nice flat screen monitor for my PC but am a little short of knowledge when it comes to online shopping.
    Could anybody recommend anywhere that is both reasonable on price and has a reliable service in the UK?

    I'd suggest one of these fine retailers:

    Has anybody ever used www.dabs.com?

    They used to get quite a lot of bad press for poor customer service so I'm wondering whether they have got their act together.

    They have recently launched a new website and it looks pretty good but I dont want to use them if they still have issues.

    Sony Viao

    I have just come across what I consider to be a bargain and was just wondering if anybody here has one or knows if the price is right?

    It is a Sony Viao SDM-S81B 18.1" TFT LCD Black and they are asking £457.07 inc VAT.

    Any thoughts on this product are most welcome and much appreciated!

    My wealthy friend....

    Hey Rich-n-Texas, who knew that you'd been hangin' around here for so long under the guise of a different and more accurate moniker?

    You've come a long way, baby.

    WWW.dabs.com has a poor rating on the Resellers site, 64 ratings, see link:

    NewEgg has an excellent rating. I have been very pleased with my purchases from them.

    Hopefully, by this time, the OP has already found a suitable monitor.

    On his behaf, though, I thank you.

    If you notice Worf, it was brought back from the dead by none other than our time-traveling friend BobbyStix. He used his witch like powers to troll for old threads, and bring them into the present.

    Diabolical Witchcraftery...... (whispered)..... he IS a witch!!!!!

    But since we're going Back in Time, can you take me back to my High School Prom? There was a hint I failed to pick up on at the time and if'n I goes back I can save myself a lifetime of "iffa, woulda, coulda's".
