Yeah it`s just over the road from Big W, on a small retail park. The shelf just says P4 £220, I had to ask what the spec was, and for them to let me look in device manager etc, as they didn`t have much spec on display leaflet.

They had one and display and the rest out the back, dunno how many but at least two, as I had one that had been opened and resealed at first, so make sure you don`t get that one (see other thread linked in first post).

You couldn`t buy the software for that, never mind the PC. Just spent the last few hours updating it all, and making it secure. :)

Sorry Jammy, ain`t got that kind of cash spare straight after Xmas, just to say managed to buy this one. Seems decision has been made now anyhow, as Micky says they have no more.

Sorry. :)
