What do you make of this?

Redten Internet
8Mb unlimited broadband and an LG-branded PC worth over £500
http://www.redteninternet.com/index.html

Free PC with a 3 year contract with them, start price @ £19.99 a month, that’s £10 cheaper than I'm paying at the mo.
(small print) "fair use" for the 8MB connection, but that only applies from 6pm till 11PM, and as I do most of my downloading late at night that would not be a problem.
This sounds a good offer and I'm quite interested.
It's odd why they are giving a free Pc in the offer, like I say, I'm paying £30 a month for my 8MB connection at the mo.
I can change as my contract ended in october 2006.
I'm still looking into it, got to read all the small print that I can find.

Interesting Deal is it not?

Rough PC specs Baz.

[Mr JP Fugley]

I've had a look myself, mate.

It looks a good deal to me.

Shall look further.

[Mr JP Fugley]

1st thing, I would check if you can upgrade the PC. 3 years is a long time in technology. However if you only used it as interweb access that might not be an issue.

I've never heard of LG computers before, I'm a bit unsure. but it would be a good backup PC, that's something I don't have at the mo, and the £19.99 is a good price I guess, much cheaper than what I'm on at the mo.

At the end of the three year contract you have two choices: to walk away, or to continue using Redten Internet. If you choose the latter option, we’ll reward you for your loyalty by giving you another computer worth over £500. This second free computer will be completely up to date and, featuring all the latest hardware and software you’d expect of a new computer, will ensure you can enjoy all the latest PC and internet developments and don’t fall behind.

Looks like they want to keep customers with them.

2nd there appears to be a £50 setup, but that's fuck all.

Still looks good.

LG is a big name in electronic, I wouldn't worry about that. I was more concerned if it was an e-Machines or something.

[Mr JP Fugley]

It's BT broadband, so it won't be folding and tech support should be OK.

[Mr JP Fugley]

Full 3 year warranty and tech support also good, even tho' I know you know a lot about computers and stuff.

It’s only by teaming up with BT, Microsoft, Intel and LG that this offer has been made possible
