    Lol....I'm Mrs Luvvlyjubbly....he's the fussy one :)

    I won't take much convincing into not buying an all in one......so....do you know of any small desktops that would fit the bill....then i can just buy wireless accessories as I think he hates all the wires...
    OOOPS!:o Apologies, however, I do believe that hubby is the exception to the rule...;) (letting the side down really.:D)
    Small form factor PC won't really solve the wires problem. So, I'd say a nice 17" desktop replacement would be the best bet in the circumstances.
    Dell do one at £699 or for £150 more for the same model with more memory and a better processor.
    See Here..

    Of course you could buy a smaller budget laptop and hook it up to a larger monitor when required as another option.

    This LENOVO C540 AIO is relatively good value at £352.91.

    Take a look at the cost of a Lenovo Extended Warranty once it arrives.

    Are you thinking of purchasing one?

    64-bit. They way that someone like myself would be sure is by noting that the only Drivers supplied for Windows 8 are 64-bit.

    The touch element won't be used after the initial fascination. It just makes your arm ache on long sessions with the all in ones.

    What is stupid?? RumRat isn't discouraging the purchase. He is simply making an observation. The OP won't be forced to use the Touch Screen. She can obtain a decent Wireless Combo.
    The Touch Screen is likely to be used every now and then. But nice to have it at no extra cost.

    Usually when I post a bargain, it's snapped up in no time. I usually suggest to buy first and think later. We have DSR, so it's not a problem.
    I did check that I could order one for Home Delivery before posting.

    Perhaps it was that 50Twuncle who grabbed the last one. :)
