According to a friend of mine, apparently... But take that with a pinch of salt, methinks... Maybe phone them tomorrow and ask if they still stock it? :)

Hmm well if it's only R100-200 then I'd rather get it from IC seeing as they are very close to me, petrol to drive there isn't going to be worthwhile, and I really want the screen ;)

Btw. looked at the Acer 24" screen, it's colours are very washed out, not really worth it in my opinion.

Was just at IC today, they are selling it at R2999.95 in the store, wanted to get one but my damned debit card wouldn't go through :( Seems I can't pay that much in one go, going back tomorrow with the cash :p

Cool beans :):)

Now i just need to shift my 20" before they run out of stock :eek:

BTW I got my Gigabyte EP35-DS3R today from IC for R1249.95, standard 3 year warranty. The P35-DS3L is going for R1269.95, Prophecy has the latter for 1.4K and Sybaritics 1.3K. I got the EP35 because it's the newer series with ultra durable II and DES. :D Score.....

1TB external HDD for R1799 holy crap that is a good price! You can't even buy 1TB hard-drives for that much.

I'd buy it and just rip the hard drive out for my PC :D

Definitely!

Wonder what drives are in there? I think the only 1TB's on the market right now are Western Digital, Seagate and Hitachi, all of them great drives, would be even sweater if it is the Hitachi! Unless it's one of those external RAID 0 storage devices and they've got 2x500GB in there :confused:

That would actually make more sense because you can't even get 1TB's for that price never mind external.

It does indeed make more sense. I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually a "1TB Storage Device" instead of a "1TB External Hard Drive" :D
