Dell are advertising the 'cheapest' system they do at £279

However, through undocumented links, theres a monitor-less system which seems identical to the £279 system for £235.07 (with 90 day warranty)

Given this is <£250, its a reasonable system for web browsing, saving photos , itunes etc on at home - but don't expect to do video editing on it :-)

3.06Ghz Celeron (if you want pentium, its £18 more)
Windows XP Home
512MB memory
80GB 7200RPM drive
DVD-Rom

If you need a monitor or DVD writer, do not start with this package and add them from Dell, there are probably better ways of doing it.

To see/buy go here

And enter UKDHSONL in the first box and D103C1 in the second

When you get the configurator, change the support contract in the 'support services' configuration section from 3 years to 90 days, and the price will drop.

Cheers

[edit, this also comes with MS Works, this "cheaper" version has no card reader, the £42 more one does have a card reader which you could add to this system for £23.50 but I'd just use the usb cable that came with your digital camera if you want to read in photos !]
