I'm confused.

Have you bough this and now are asking if it's any good? Or did you have a budget in mind and want to see what else can be spec'd to compare?

The first line suggests that he hasn't bought it yet.

That's why I'm confused. It's OK but I don't know how much he is willing to spend.

If I took that spec as a wish list.......

Bought this and awaiting build. Just wondered what else was similar. It took me ages to decide on what to get, I mean 12 months. I am no computor wizard but liked this spec
