Those of you in the UK will be interested to learn that Novatech are now taking orders at a far cheaper price than currently listed at ebuyer.com.

It’s funny that the Novatech site lists the minimum CPU at 233Mhz. I think there a little off.

It also says the medium is CD-Rom, not DVD.

I spoke to Novatech, it is not in stock currently and their version comes on CD. Disappointing.

Well, no-one in Europe has it in stock yet….!
I’d be very surprised if Novatech had a different version to anyone else - it’ll be a DVD plus 2 CDs like everywhere else, I’m sure.

Well Ebuyer now have the following on their web site so we need to wait and see what the pricing is like
“Update: The stock is expected with our suppliers for the 1st week of Sept, and we will take delivery shortly after. Pricing has still to be confirmed.”

Thanks David. Perhaps I can stop checking ebuyer every day now - or not
