I think this is a good deal, given that you can install Ubuntu , obtain a screen and you have a working computer.
My 9 year old Pentium 4 2GHz is creaking a bit now, so may get this for the kidz to play the online games.
Duplicate, but still available

What would you suggest then for persons wanting a basic inexpensive computer ?
£149.93 + windows + pc screen. And when people plan to upgrade you would need to replace most if not all of the parts :3
£149.93 + ubuntu + use your old screen = 149.93. Perhaps people will buy this and run it into the ground, upgrading wont come into it.

Yes because every person is going to want to use ubuntu.
Yes, you're exactly right. There are a lot of other free linux distros to choose from :p

This sort of spec computer isn't for the ever upgrading enthusiast; it's for those who are looking for an inexpensive machine to browse the internet, check emails and use office applications. A lot of people buy much higher spec computers and don't to a great deal more. This machine is perfectly adequate for those tasks. Also a lot of people already have a monitor of sorts or would prefer the option of buying one separately. Also there are free alternatives to Windows as you probably know.

Those are called HTC Mozarts...... It's not garbage, it a fair price for a basic computer, if no operating system bothers you, there's loads of free linux, some have a look of windows to them... makes me laugh when people say dual core pc, ideal for surfing or cheap server.... a pentium 75 is ok for surfing or a server FFS!

Have you tried Linux Mint?
Exactly the kind of people who will turn around in 6 months time saying "It's running a bit slow and takes ages to start! Mate, can't you do something?" This machine is obsolete for anything other than Linux enthusiasts IMHO. It might be cheap - but it's cheap for a reason.
Easily, would also play back these
