This seems very expensive, or am I missing something?

You're missing nothing, its VERY expensive.

160GB... you must be joking and crappy on board video means no chance of playing games on it as it stands.

Presumably you are paying a premium for Win 7 and the Quad Core and therefore may be too powerful hence uneconomical for some users.

good things windows 7, good cpu, on the other hand small hard drive and ram erm lukewarm i think.

just realised its 32 bit operating system so if you upgade the ram to 4gb you need to install a 64 bit operating system shame i already voted as now i think this should be cold. And er DVD ROM no more backups of data and movies to dvd.

I wrote it in a hurry and added a bit... simply meant that it was attracting a higher price due to the processor and new OS. Some people would never take advantage of the processing power and hence paying for the power but not requiring it.
