Sweet. That case sure does look good!

Can I ask if the monitor was delivered in the same box? Or was is 2 consignments?

+rep

 

[derek1971]

Monitor was in its own box inside the same box as the pc. Just one (big) consignment. The white you can see at the edges is the packing round the tower.

I believe the monitor comes in a separate box (not sure how theyd fit it in the 'puter one!), but dont quote me on it (should be teh same consignment though)

 

[scomil]

Okey Dokey. Good to know. Thanks.
I'm quite litererally beyond excitment.
