I still dont understand how Rock stay in business... Novatech (www.novetech.co.uk)have the same machine (simply a rebadged generic CLEVO chassis) for £1400 with the same 512mb 8800M GTX, 2.4ghz c2d and 4GB of ram and a 320GB hard disk (but no HD-DVD player I suppose... big whoop!).
I reckon Rock are trying to play on shortages in 8800M parts to gouge on the price, but 2200 quid is ridiculous!

That should be www.novatech.co.uk (with an "a"). The other is a typo-squatter ad site :-(
