Great job!
Just one point - the individual posts with the specs in mostly have 'last edited dates' of more than a month ago. I've now realised that this is because you just update the linked images - but for quite a while I was thinking that you weren't updating all of them!!
I wonder whether it would be an idea to point this out in the first thread - or am I the only one not using my brain??!!
Also - you tend to get the specs to within a few pence of the budget price. This is very impressive, but:
a) must be quite time consuming sometimes, trying to get everything to add up exactly.
b) may sometimes result in compromises? i.e.: would someone spending £1250 on a box, buy just the basic P5Q board, as opposed to spending a bit more for the pro, e, or delux version perhaps? At that end of the scale, breaking the budget by £50 or more is probably not an issue. Obviously at the lower end of the scale, it would be much more significant.
Would it make more sense to allow yourself a small amount of leeway of perhaps 5-10% of the budget, to reflect real life, to sometimes provide a better spec for very little difference in cost and to make life easier for you?
Given that component prices seem to be changing almost daily at the moment, what you spec today may be 5% more or less tomorrow anyway!
Just some thoughts - but it is your thread and your hard work, so yours to decide what you do with it...
