To anyone that has bought one of the MAXX PC's from the mag or this site, are they reliable? I'm thinking bout getting the last one in the latest mag. Is it worth it.... looking at the specs, I'd say it is. But I don't own one so I can't say.

Do any of you own a MAXXX PC?

how about having some sort of package where you can but everything you need to set up a wirless network...
maybe have different combinations?
2 PCs
2PCs + 1 Laptop
etc.. etc..

it would save a lot of hassle for me and i'm sure others.. a slight discount within the packages would be even more appreciated :-D

I built a Dual Processor PC three weeks ago for the experience. I am now using it and its so blindingly fast.

2.2Ghz Dual, 556DDRAMX2...

I think it will take off.

Now all I need is the wireless networking set up.

Indeed.

I could also knock out the two CD drives as I already have a CD/DVD writer.

I paid about £2300 for my P4-1700 last June.

The P4-2800 is only around £1300.

Tony, can I swap?
