Anyone knowledgable of computer stores and sources in London, England:

I have a (not very computer-literate) associate in London whom I need to
get onto an AT-compatible with an EGA card and monochrome monitor, both
for word processing (MS-Word with custom fonts, hence the EGA card) and
for E-Mail (Mercury Communications MercuryLink).

Can someone send me (by e-mail) information on good computer shops or similar
sources of reasonably-priced AT-compatibles, as well as some idea what the 
following combination would/should cost in England:

AT compatible with 1 5.25" High Density drive and 1 3.5" Double Density (720K)
drive, as well as a 40MB hard disk; 640K RAM; EGA-compatible display adapter;
Amber TTL monochrome monitor; I/O card with 2 serial and one parallel ports.

This combination would cost about $1100-1300 here (650-800 Pounds). I realize
it will be more in England -- but how much?

Wolf
