Hi

Just Looking For A Unit For My Dad

He Only Uses It For Ebay And Letters Etc So Does Not Need Anything Like The Highest Spec

It Will Need To Be Wireless

Looking For The Cheapest Possible

Does Not Need A Keyboard Or Mouse Or Monitor

Thanks In Advance

I have no idea what you are asking for! does he want a new computer base unit with a wireless card? or a laptop? or a wireless router? wireless print server? does he already have internet access?

I don't know what you consider to be cheap, but £399 will get you a lovely little Mac Mini.

Alternatively, if you want to get really cheap, I'm sure you could find an inexpensive PC on eBay or in the classifieds of your local paper. I guess there might not be much point in buying new if you aren't looking for anything too powerful.

Try Here

Its Currys refurbs and come with a warranty starting from £189. All you need then is to bang in a wireless USB dongle and away you go

You may want to turn your caps lock off as well. Makes the posts very unreadable.

This PC is pretty cheap at £189.99, though you will need to spend a little extra to make it wireless.
