Tiny and time have both merged in the so called computer world i think. Its not about whether your a novice or not, it just crashes all da time causing stress when your doing important stuff. The decision is urs but personally i would stay far away as possible. Goods prices but crap build quality and VERY VERY unreliable

Time = Tiny are the worst comps you can ever buy, i had one it crashed all the time. Bloody useless, also my mate had one and did the same thing as well!!! Buy Dell they are pretty good

Wasn't it Time that got featured on Watchdog a while ago? For charging exorbitant amounts for their Tech Support line, because someone had paid almost the same amount they paid for their machine, and Time still hadn't fixed it over the phone...

Or was that Tiny, I can't remember......either way, build your own or get a mate to do it if you're not sure of your way around computers.

Time were voted worst for Customer Service in a survey a little while ago... Not sure what it's like now.

As for the machines, I would stay as far away as poss! My friend has one and it has caused him more problems than enough.

My experiences of them have been poor too. I am currently employed as a Computer Technician and have been for about 6 years and in that time I have seen very few decent "Time" machines.

Hope this helps.

Mark.

Not much can really go wrong with the Hardware these days so i don't think that it really matters what company you get it from as long as you get a decent machine and service.

I used to work in computers and if i be honest......dont waste your "time" on that company, i had enough people phoning my company asking for help.

If you don't know much about computers then I would recommend that you get one with a good warranty as so much software wise can go wrong.
