Some of you may know that a few weeks back i ordered a new pc from Mesh. Well the delivery date was 3 weeks from then (Which would be next wednesday) So they still havent sent the pc out. However, after looking through there website again i realised that they had changed the spec of the computer i had bought. So although it was still the Matrix 6000+ Premium and was still £350 (although im getting it for £300 through my mates buisness) they had changed some things. So i rang up Mesh and asked if i would recieve the upgrade. They said i wouldnt but i could change it over so i did. I am just wondering what people think of the new spec. (Ive highlighted the differences in bold)

This is the NEW Spec:

System Base Price: £ 297.02

2GB DDR2 667MHz Memory - (2x 1GB)
250GB Serial ATA Hard Drive with 16MB Buffer

Free Cyberlink Video Editing Suite - 7 titles (oem)
4x USB 2.0 Ports (onboard)

and this is the OLD Spec:

System Base Price: £ 297.02
AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 6000+ - Socket AM2
Genuine Windows Vista™ Home Premium Edition
New MESH Mini-Tower Micro ATX Case +300W PSU

6x USB 2.0 Ports (8x possible on motherboard)

Well you got more Ram by the looks of it but less USB ports.
