New dual core system including TFT for less than £300...?

[BushLin]

Just getting a ball park figure to a family friend for an entry level system without cutting corners. Was very surprised what can be done with £300, this is a perfectly useable system and a few quid extra would buy them a bigger hard drive or more RAM which are the weakest points other than integrated graphics. What do you think? Good value, or can you uncover better deals?
