I wanna basic desktop pc

Sagz_2

My beloved pc has just died after 6 years of service so I need a new one. I only use it for surfing, keeping household accounts and playing a few basic on-line games. I have keyboard, mouse and monitor and would prefer XP or Vista.

Cheapest suitable one I've seen at the mo is this one at PC World - which was a surprise!

Anyone seen anything better for the money (£186) or similar spec cheaper?

Thanks for any help you can give xx

I bought a pc from novatech for my dad. Link here http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/range.html?t=pc&c=home&r=ION £300 including a widescreen 19" monitor or £189 without. It gets great reviews and he is dead chuffed with it.

A fair bit more grunt for an extra £25. You can grab a 19" TFT monitor from the same place for around £75, but if you're happy with what you have for now, or don't quite have the cash to spare, you can always upgrade later.

Sometimes (but not that often) half decent basic PCs turn up on Boffer.co.uk for £100-115.

Thanks guys - ones good looking and the others great value, decisions decisions!

Saw one on Boffer a couple of months ago and was trying to decide 'shall I, shan't I' and by the time I decided it had gone.....
