Ah,
 
the flipside to the coin 8)
 
I've been trying to decide if this is the way to go, but i can't be bothered to be frank with the time i will spend making the thing.... I mean, I bought my sampler and synths and never once considered making them myself (if you get my point), so I am coming round to the idea of just paying someone to make me a decent machine that has dual boot XP and ghost CDs as standard etc.... I would rather pay another �100 or so and get something reliable that I don't have to tweak as much (or at all if I'm lucky!) from day one....or be able to reinstall from a CD if it goes t*ts up....
 
If i make it myself, it will still have roughly the same components in it as if i buy one ready made (in fact, not as high spec  for the price of the DV 3ghz at �850) I just get the dubious pleasure of spending many evenings putting it together and cursing it when things don't fit right.... and even if the ready made one needs tweaking, its still something i would have to do to my homemade one.... so I reckon its gonna be a DV type ready made one... and being able to speak to an engineer in person to say how i want it set up is better than emailing an order and hoping for the best when putting it all together 8)
 
Cheers for the info tho

Never bought anything from digital village.
 
 
They promise to be the cheapest around and price match if you find cheaper elsewhere.
 
The customer service leads a lot to be desired but i bought the components from there to build my own machine and havnt had any problems.
 
Do not know if this is any use to you.

Morning all Big Grin 
 
Just on the verge of buying a new music PC and have been very tempted by the DV XT 3ghz PCs given the spec, the price and the fact that I have a DV shop near my house...
I seriously considered building my own, but can't seem to beat the price (particularly not including the time it would take me to build it!). Also building time is less music time, so it doesn't really stack up the more i think about it....

Are there any happy customers out there who have bought a DV pc recently and been happy with them or vice versa (any nightmare stories)?

Any info would be cool as they seem like a very good deal compared to building it myself....but I would consider another dealer if there is a good reason not to buy one from Digital Village.....

Cheers
Dan
