Title: Cheap Media Center PC
Post by: Glenn on Feb 04, 2008, 21:58:50
Tesco's have a Gateway Media Center PC available at £199. http://www.hotukdeals.com/item/142529/gateway-media-centre-pc-199-instore/

The PC runs XP Media Center with an E6300 CPU at its heart, I would think it would be impossible to build the PC for this price.

I think you're right Glenn, that's a very nice price. If Tesco are knocking off pre Dell stock on the cheap, I might have a look tomorrow!

That's definitely worth a look at that price - looks almost too good to be true.

Nice find Glenn, I reckon XP Media Centre is the very best OS from MS, I have it on my computer in Spain.

:thnks:

Same case as mine Rik ( other than the rubbish fitted to the top of it ).

It is showing a wired keyboard so probably a budget machine this time. ;)
