Re Aldi computers, in the UK they put an ad in the national papers when something's coming in. I saw one for the netbook and was round the store quickly (10 minutes away) which explains how I got one. It was black and grey, not white as advertised, also I had to harass the staff a bit but I got one.

I suppose if your hard drive or whatever goes, and you want a new PC quickly it's more problematic but with me it was boys' toy syndrome really.
