people who buy from ebuyer are flids though
Richies is in a dispute with them and trading standards after they sold him an illegal somthing or other
it was a pc component that they had bridged to make it better (or somthing, im sure he will elaborate later on)
There returns policy is a load of shit as well, you have to pay to post items back when they sent out the wrong ones in the first place!
My advice - stay away from ebuyer!
are you going to marry a flid 
depends how big his willy is

people began doing this with the 9500 ages ago...
you could mod the 9500 to a 9700 as long as it wasn't a Pro. Simply flash the bios and give it more voltage to open up the pipelines... silly really.
Same with the 9700Pro (9800) and yes the XT.

No it wasn't a graphics card i think it was a processor (about 2 inches square with loads of little metal pins on the back)

You pay postage to return it then they refund you if you were in error.
Have had good and bad dealings with them.
Bad ones mainly late delivery.
Can't beat the prices though.

plasmas/lcd's are still shite unless you are spunking mega cash on a Linn or something similar, sony and pioneer units are still poor, and a dodgy brand like that isnt going to have the interlacing and refresh rates to be a good picture for that size screen
David - Hush yo Gums boy! Firstly, when have Linn ever made Plasmas? They never have and they still dont, Secondly i agree with sony being shit with plasmas, but Pioneer?!!?!? If you look at their screens, you will see there fair from being shit - especially when you can spend the same as some people earn a year on one 
But yes, spending under 1500 quid on anything like a plasma or LCD, you will get shocking pictures.
If you just want it for a box, then you can buy dummy units for 100 quid or so, might be more your thing

I was working at a place when they had a delivery on 10 Linn Plasmas, at a cost of $50,000 each

well its the first ive heard of linn plasmas and they dont seem to be available for the public market - linn website and google bring up nout
Though a lot of companies will produce a screen, aslong as you flash them enough cash
although i wonder who makes the actual screen? that would determine 40-50% of the image quality straight away
