Hi guys, back to the PC World debate

Thanks for the words of advice. The PC will be for my lady friend. She will use it for internet, photography (photoshop stuff) and music and perhaps the odd excel spreadsheet.

She read up on things and found that the more memory you have the faster it will drive and the better the processor you get the faster it will drive etc etc. So, she saw this one...

which seems to have all the things they tell you you need for a remarkably low price....what's the catch??

PS Any point waiting until after Christ's birthday for he shall be handing out gifts to those who are patient.

PPS Is Norton a pile of s**te? Seems to have fooked my computer since I've put it on

PPS Thanks.
