I realise it would be unfair to recomend other companies but can anyone advise possible pro's and con's of this system
Is it worthwhile upgrading any off the components and do you agree with my idea about going for the more affordable 2.4ghz and upgrade it in a year or two when I could pick up a 2.8ghz for a quarter of the price
Any help would be appreciated
You pays your money and makes your choice, no-one is forcing anyone to do anything.

More poeple nicking and selling bit in these areas, hence the price is lower. ;-)

Just put together a spec and email it to half a dozen companies and see who comes up trumps - I know price isn't everything but you can gauge from peoples ads/ email response times/ telephone manner what they are like.
If you can collect then obviously you save on carriage charges and get to see the company in the flesh. Peace of mind is worth quite a bit when you are spending hundreds of pounds on something.
sorry SR

I got mine from SSC, who are very competitively priced and only use high-quality components.
If you can't find an hour (or maybe 2 if you’re a bit slow) to save yourself a couple of £100, then you either…
a) Have to much money, or
b) You’re a fool.
Yeah I agree, MAXX PCs are one of the best 'off the shelf' PCs on the market, but you can still save £££s or get a much better spec machine for the same money by doing it yourself.
maxx and a few others are probably better than tiny, time...... etc
