After Wayne's recommendation I bought one of those Lenovo Thinkcentre
A61e USFF thingies. He's not kidding about expansion options - no PCI
slots! I think there is a mico-PCI slot free next to the (laptop)
memory slot, so WiFi is possible. On the back there are 3 audio ports,
4 USB, 1 Ethernet, one VGA and the DC power socket.
That low price of £195.73 + VAT (=£229.98) also includes a sturdy
keyboard, a very lightweight optical mouse, and an XP licence, but no
CDs and no monitor. The concept is not far off a MacMini, but about
three times larger, and black. I'll be installing Hardly Heroin when
it's released at the end of the week, and I'll let you know how it
goes.

Tim Green.
