When it comes to looking for the best deal I tend to spend ages looking around, so if you're like me check out http://www.moneysavingexpert.com. Martin Lewis who runs the site does all the leg work for you like checking out all the deals, reading the small print, and weighing up the pros and cons of a product or service. He has a newsletter for those of you who want to keep up to date on the latest deals http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/archive.phtml

Dell are pretty big in the UK. We have Dell machines at work and we've only had a couple of problems but the business support is excelent so the issues have been fixed very quickly.

Keep an eye on www.dell.co.uk/outlet and you might pick up a deal (Grade 1 Refurb). Likewise if you look up member "dellfactoryoutlet" on ebay (from community section), you will be able to pick up something with a small scratch or mark for a FRACTION of the price.. (Grade 2 Refurb)

See a dual core 3GHz with 4gb ram and 2x160 hard drives go for £500 on ebay over the weekend with them.
