Which PC to buy?
My old core 2 duo packed in and I'm looking for a replacement, preferable small, like a Gigabyte Brix or a NUC. Can anyone recommend one? I'm thing an i3 processor would be fine for my needs. The Fujitsu Espiimo Q556 is one I've also been looking at. Quietness is important to me, I don't like noisy fans.
