Ok, i'll have to be careful here not to break OCUK forum rules, but i would like your opinions on something.

I was looking for media center PCs on the net and i found this one from a well known company. the spec of the PC is below -

# Intel Pentium 4 521 Processor
# 2.8GHz, 800MHz FSB, 1MB Cache
# 512MB DDR RAM
# 200GB Hard Disk Drive
# Multi-Format Dual Layer DVD-RW Drive
# 256MB ATI X300HM Graphics
# Built-in Digital TV Tuner + Remote
# 802.11g Wireless Network Ready
# Wireless Keyboard + Mouse
# Microsoft Windows XP Media Center

This is not a recon item, it is new, with 12 month warranty, ready to work, all that is needed is a suitable monitor. here is the odd thing.

PRICE - £199.97 inc VAT!!!!!!!!!

Now normally, if i saw this spec at this price, i would instantly disregard it as a scam, but like i said, it was from a well known reputable retailer on there own site, ready to be bought online there and then.

i can't see how this can be making a profit, does anyone else know anything about this.

Obviously i will not be revealing the name of the retailer, i would not want to be breaking the OCUK Prime Directive :D :D
