personally i think this is a poor example of a pc you can get much better budget pc's.
if anyone is thinking of a second pc for a NAS then dont touch this get yourself a cheap tower server...
if you want a cheap web machine get a cheap laptop there are loads around..
This is aimed at the business side not home users take note!

Hi,

Sounds lke a good price for a childrens web pc. Especially if you have a monitor already.
Where are these cheap laptops you speak of?

Curious.

Surley this would be good in a childrens bedroom for their use, £160 is a not a bad price. although a monitor is needed. Spec seems decent for the price

Great price I reckon.

Ideal web surfing machine. Could be used as a decent home server for those in the know.

What has looks got to do with it!

I think every machine I have chucked in the skip at the council depot has been immaculate too! The just sit there, and get dusty - no-one uses them for digging at the coal-face!

So, they are second-hand, and it's a lottery if you get a good or bad one

They don't even come with a power lead!

there are no use to anyone wanting a home server as the case is tiny and only 10/100 nic...no room for graphics card expansion so when your kids cant play games you will have to buy a better pc with better upgrade options...all in all if you want a cheap pc get a tower with basic cpu and ram but with pciexpress for g card later and use onboard to get you going....read up guys as previous post said these are second hand not new....when you buy the kids a mobile phone pick up one of the free laptops to go with it!
