Well after a year or more of procrastinating I have finally bought a new PC

http://www.chillblast.com/Chillblast-Fusion-Stealth.html

My old PC (that I built) is 6 yrs old and playing up - the raid array failed the other month and although got it working again I think the mobo is on the way out

I like the system to be quiet and once I get it will get a few modern games to play

now just to look at how to use Windows 8 (although have a full copy of 7 if I really cant get used to it)

Now just waiting for it to be delivered

Hope it turns up ok - been reading some complaints about them on PC Pro forum.

For Windows 8 - if you don't get on with it try the Start8 App - only costs a few quid - http://www.stardock.com/products/start8/
