[QUOTE="TJExcalibur, post: 661480, member: 189039"] Unless its like for like components there can be no comparison. Also its not just the makers who make a profit, the retailers also who work on a percentage mark up. They make more on a £500 box than a £200 box. Yet they are still only selling one item. I read on a forum about the 8000 overheating when fitted with a disc drive, with a genuine item you have some comeback which I doubt when buying a clone. Do a Google for clomes of boxes and there are many reasons to avoid them. On another forum, there are 213 pages of posts relating to DN clones. The problems disclosed will guarantee I only buy the genuine item, simply not worth the hassle to save some money. After all it is a hobby not an endurance test. [/QUOTE]
