Basically a friend is asking buying advice from me, and from another mate of hers.
Weve each come up with a suggestion.
Budget is £400 absolute max including Keyboard, Monitor and Mouse. Thats all we have to play with.
One suggestion is this from Aria ::
http://www.aria.co.uk/Systems/Home%20Range/Centurion/Gladiator%20Centurion%20Logic%20Plus%20Business%20PC%20-%20Windows%207%20Professional%20?productId=39883
Plus a cheap 19" monitor or something
the other suggestion is this from Comet, and its this ::

Which would you go for?
-
Id go for the HP
x2 should be faster than the celron dual core... and it has a nice screen....
-
If they just want it for basic stuff & not gaming, have they considered a laptop
& get a montior, kb, mouse & a port replicator?

Shes already got a laptop, I suggested this but shes just been given £500 by the insurance company to replace her old PC, so shes wanting a new desktop.

The HP one is a much better spec for an extra £50 and it all looks nicer and has the monitor. If I wanted a quick replacement base unit jobbie, Id get that.

I think that people who sit in the middle lane should be euthanized with a baseball bat to the face.
