We took a laptop there to be checked , it took well over a half hour and the queue was 15 deep, whilst waiting I looked around, my they are expensive. Have a look on Amazon to compare what's out there.

I've ofen wondered who buys computers/laptops/printers etc. from PC World.  On the rare occasions I go, if I see anything I like I note the details and then go home and find it loads cheaper elsewhere.  The other day I was on the Argos website and got distracted looking at laptops in their sale and was amused how some laptops they had reduced by £180 from their 'normal price' were still over £70 more expensive than online retailers.Obviously you need to be somewhat careful buying expensive electronic things online, although I must admit I'd yet to ever have a bad experience from doing so.  As Dawn says, try Amazon or dabs.com
