I can't help but think the 'health check' and 'servicing' pcworld do are
a con. It's not like it's a car with parts that need servicing every X
months etc

(Not that I've ever bought a computer from pcworld, run windows
recently, or used pc world's health check... so I don't really know what
I'm talking about - aside from what I've seen in their adverts/instore
stuff).

thanks
David.
