[QUOTE="B16MCC, post: 660704, member: 197891"] There's no doubt the Dreambox is the superior machine, however the debate continues as to whether you should buy a clone or not. I've bought 9 Dreamboxes so far 6 of which for my own use over the last 5 years. I basically started as many do with the 500 and worked my way up to the new 8000. I have never bought a clone, and would never advise anyone to do so. The biggest reason for me is not really down to the hardware itself, but more from where it comes from. I would not consider spending several hundred quid on a unit from China ! The customer service and after sales support in some extreme cases is totally non existant. I'm sure suppliers exist that aren't that bad, but I simply wouldn't risk it. As for the actual hardware, there are restrictions and issues, is it really worth it ? [/QUOTE]
