if i buy one of the first 2 machines my dreambox will have to wait 2 weeks, but i think there is more longevity in these. the third one ticks all the boxes space wise though.

all 3 need to go on wireless keyboared and mouse.

youve only posted 2 machines there m8

as you know, i would buy the emachine, simple reason is this, you can buy the emachine add another 2gb of ram to match the 4gb in the aspire, and get an external 1tb hdd to beat the storage amount of the aspire , add an external dvd-rw drive and still have the cost lower than the aspires original price plus wifis built in.
for what you said you will use it for, the emachine ticks all the boxes

just to add.. ANY pc has the abiltity to add a wireless kb/ and mouse

i would have bought this if i was gonna buy a rdy made pc

https://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/Gladiator+X2+255+Dual-Core+Next+Day+PC+?productId=45215

and in a few years when it gettin to slow to handle programs bang on a Quad core

[wetdog]

cheers dude, impressive spec.

trouble is our maude bought a pc from Aria a few years back and it was shite. unreliable, slow after 3 months use, and noisy as ~~~~, and terrible after sales.

i thought of Aria, then dismissed them.

input appreciated though dude.

This might be of use to you

Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop 700 v2 Keyboard and Mouse - ?15.99 delivered

Can get cheaper, but Microsoft usually make good keyboards/mouse

This might be a better deal - barebones deal easy to build

No DVD or HDD 2 x 2gb no HDMI, but that doen't cost ?90.00

Novatech are excellent

mick, have you seen the thread on getting free wireless desktop from ms?

i dunno if it will still work, they sent me 2 laser 7000's around 6 months ago....

nothing to loose, worth a pop...

I've bought graphics cards almost twice the price of this PC.

Infact, my first ever DVD-ROM was more expensive.
