Hello there

I'm wondering what computer to buy. I live in the UK and here are the specs

pentium 4 or equiv.
1gb ram
dvd/r or better
tft monitor (not bothered about size)

i have a budget of 600 quid savedup from pockt money

Do you have any specific models you would recommend?What will you be using it for? Gaming or internet/wordprocessing? That will decide what you need (besides the budget).And theres the option of building your own. If you know how to.$800-900 would get you a fairly good system here in the U.S. and I think most of the rest of the world.

Rather than recommend a system, my advice is this:

PCs and related hardware values change by the minute. When you're ready to buy, Google for any number of rating services (Cnet, etc) and make a list of which systems are currently high rated in your price range and configuration. Then I'd recommend you search again for local outlets and find the best price for your potential choices.

Do you have any specific models you would recommend?

The Monitor should be 19" or better for a desktop.

Medion is one which might be worth looking at.
