Full review
The 'Compaq Presario Media Center SR2019UK' PC is a great buy. It is powerful enough to display all the media you could want and with XP media centre, you can access your music, video, radio and tv while laying back.
The 7.1 surround sound has great quality and the software offers many options to tweak your sound. The DVD Writer drive allows you to burn your media quikly from either the media centre user interface, or from various other included softwares. If you use other devices that use memory cards, theres no need to use cables, just slot the cards into the memory card readeer in the front panel.
The only critisism is that the power of 2,2 Ghz is by far not the most powerful available today, and sometimes when using many programmes the pc can be slightly slugish but aslong as programmes aren't left running while not in use the pc handles most programmes with ease.
