    Picked it up off rip bay.....collecting it on Monday.

    Brand new in box with the Nvidia 8600, Bluettoth and the 3945.

    Seemed like a good price but would be interested to hear peoples opinions.

    There's a British flag, so do you mean £ (GBP) rather than $ (USD)?

    No

    Paid just over £500 and it's easier for me to do the convert as I know the exchange rate off the top of my head.

    Indeed; it would worry me if you couldn't do the conversion in your head, given the exchange rate.
