........g'day, i need a new machine. both my pensionable laptop and desktop are not only past it, but there ~~~~ed.

i.m thinking of a fully wireless desktop, but need the help opinions of you guys who know much more than me.

here is a list of requirments etc...........


laptop or desktop.
new or seconhand.
price needs to be low.
desktop, buy components and build myself.
desktop small box.
fully wireless.
usage, internet, pics, music, record pause live tv, output 5.1 sound or connect to my amp, it runs my cable box(soon to be dreambox sky).
jailbreaking..............hahaha, i have widows 7 ready to go.
remote control???, not an issue really.
should i go Mac or PC.


i dont do Torrents or anything along those lines, but thats mainly cos i dont know how and my machines arnt really up to it. but a new machine and help from here could see me watching more movies etc.

i am open to all suggestions, oohh matron!!!, if i go componant route i would need a specific list of what to buy and where to buy.

any links to seconhand bargains appreciated, but i will need any machine to be in as new state with no virus or operating issues.

cheers guys, i'll update the list as if i think of anythging to add.
