    Nope. I wouldn't. It asks for assets of "value" which a 3 year old second hand PC certainly isn't. :)

    Thank you, that's great! :j

    As Fermi has said the computer is not an asset. For asset's the OR is looking for things like the all singing, all dancing, plasma screen TV you have in your lounge or the Picasso you have hanging in the loo. Generally anything over £1000+ that will be worth selling and getting a good return.

    Thats exactly right Jane, unless you have an original Picasso or at least a 50" fairly new plasma screen then assetts is " none".
