Get yourself on the Dell outlet site:

I just bought an Inspiron 8600, it was reduced from £2100 to £1100 - quite a saving and it arrived within 3 days
Good luck

PC World also have some blindingly stupid staff as well 
I make a point of NEVER asking for their assistance, all that I have spoken are useless.
Have a look here or here
But as jevvyg said, Dell Outlet or even the Normal Dell store

It would be a mistake to assume that the sales staff in PCWorld are anything more than shop assistants. There are some knowledgeable people in the clinics, but there are a lot of tossers too. Ive always found them to be far worse in the South East and better in the North.

Mac; you'll remember what I said about the assistants...? If you have any problems with the kit then send me a PM and I will see that it is sorted out for you, by your local store, in the manner that you'd expect.
