A few local schools use Stone PCs, they're generally OK

Bit nervous about the DVD rw. I need to read CDs for the photo album:-)
Ignorance on display!


DVD drives will read CDs, and being a DVD writer it will also write CDs.

3 or 4GB of memory would be handy, and an 80GB disk will likely be
half-full by the time Win7 is installed with a swap file and all patches.


OK. Offer made to include keyboard and a further 2 gig ram.

Watch this space:-)


Tim. if you are local to me, woc.co.uk is where I got my scrapper computer

And I may be getting another from a friend
