7 awesome deals at PC Show 2012
We braved the crowds so you don’t have to. Geek out with these attractive buys at this year’s Suntec PC Show.There are two kinds of people when it comes to big sales: those who sit them out because the thought of jostling in a crowd of bargain hunters is enough to wear them out, and those who look forward to snapping up those bargains with the anticipation of a kid on Christmas eve.
With over 600 participating exhibitors, and more than 950,000 visitors expected over the next four days, the PC Show 2012 is one of the largest IT fairs in Singapore, offering attractive deals and hourly specials on consumer electronics.

So with handbags clutched firmly underarm, we braved the first wave of technophiles this morning to suss out the must-buys at this year’s PC Show:
