I think they were likely querying the Catalyst price that insight gave, which you'll only get over the phone/email with their education people.

Or when you login with your catalist ID

Meh.. if only they did IBM's for this much (or rather little)

I have, they need an OEM Vista Business Licence, a cheap VGA Card (the on-board is SHOCKING) before drivers the lag is lagriffic and its not that wonderful once drivered up tbh! and a cheap PCI-Express soundcard. So on top of the £96 catalist price, its about £18 for the soundcard, similar for a VGA Card and £65 for the Vista licence so for near enough £200 you have a great spec desktop PC.

They are silent enough when running but be warned on startup they are like concorde taking starting up but within 60 seconds they go silent again.

If they are at that price in a few months time I see no reason why they won't be in the running for the new desktop purchases.
