That would be right Paragon has been the number 1 machine I have been after for ages and the same day I give up and put a deposit down on a Shadow one shows up....never mind I'm still looking forward to my Shadow...Just a hypothetical in case I do still have a go at the Paragon (and I know it is an impossible question to answer having not checked it out fully) but is any one game on having a ball park guess as to what it might on cost on top of the sale price to have someone shop a machine like this and bring it up to speed and have it playing well?
