Easy Peasy
Reviewed by AJR. Review Posted 16/03/2012
I had an old XP machine that died. Rather than spend £400 on a new device, I got this instead and used it to TRY and teach my teenage son a few things about building PCs.
The motherboard accepted a really old power connection and I was flying within a matter of minutes. The Driver disk only needed a couple of iterations before XP recognised all the devices and the Core i3 has 4 threads and loads XP up in 7 seconds! It also has its own Graphics processor, so I haven't had to buy a graphics card....yet.
As for my teenage son, he's still complaining about me trying to show him (he spent 0 seconds looking at what I was showing him), but he's NOT complaining about the superfast PC he now has.
There is no HDMI output, but there is USB3, 1Gb LAN and if you just want something simple, this fits the bill.
Beginners don't worry, this one's easy.
