PC World make money from people that arent really into computers and will buy the crap they come out with. Who in their right mind would pay somebody else to install software on their PC?

Its something to do at lunchtime when its raining. Go in and find an assistant and ask them for a laugh that you have £500 to spend on a PC or Laptop what do they recomend etc, i laugh and i dont know a massive amount about computers but enough to know they DONT! I did get a great deal on my portable HDD from them though Couldnt beat it online anywhere and could pick it up that day, so not always bad

Someone who cannot be bothered with the hassle of building the machine themselves, fault finding if a component is problematic and requires a warranty that covers the entire system and not each individual component.
Having said that, I have never bought a pre-built system. |

Why ? you could build a superior system for the same price as a pre built system. Also you know its built out of quality parts and not the mostly substandard parts in a pre built.

its just my opinion but you'd be mad in my mind to buy a pre built (excluding lap tops) |

Cheaper to buy a dell than buy all the same parts.

All well and good if you have the time, skills and tools required to diagnose and replace faulty components. For people with full time jobs and no interest in computers other than their function pre-built systems make the most sense.
