I'm selling my PC due to an upgrade. Here's the specs:
AMD AthlonXP 3200+ (2.2ghz)
Asus A7N8X Deluxe Motherboard
512mb DDR400 RAM
ATI Radeon 9600XT 256mb Graphics
30GB Maxtor IDE Hard Drive
Mercury DVD Drive
400W PSU
All tidy and well looked after. Case is nice as well, cool blue LCD front panel & side window. Pics will be available on request.
EDIT: If you are thinking of upgrading or just need a desktop this PC is reliable and very capable despite its age! I played Half-life 2 and FEAR on it no probs

Thanks, and yes the 30gb hard drive may restrict some people, but the motherboard has SATA RAID capabilities so upgrades are not a problem
It is advertised elsewhere so get in contact if you're interested

How much is it going for? Wouldn't mind something a bit faster than my current one.

I'm looking for £200 and that's with a fresh, legal install of Windows.

NO NO!!! no windows.. LINUX!!! nice great secondary (to become primary) system.. Once u realize the power of linux u will soon convert and make it ur primary OS and windows will only be a secondary or 3rd, 4th or 5th OS..
hmmm maybe this rant is lost upon the listeners.. ohh well

its lost untill i see this "power" you talk about

I'll gladly show u the power.. give me an opportunity and I will
but just to give some statistics:
linux servers running at high load can road for years at a time without reboot and still be updated without needing to be rebooted..
windows servers are lucky if they cant count in months rather than weeks of uptime.. (averagely!! so dont come say ur 52nd cousin ran a windows server for longer.. bla bla
)
this advantage is not as visible when dealing with end-users ie desktop/laptop users, but it still exists.. a windows system will slowly become more and more unstable.. linux a lot less

Hmmm, £200 is quite good. Sadly Santa wasn't very generous this year.
Now, if anyone has a 2nd hand TFT they are selling cheap I could be tempted.

echelon i am selling it with windows because it has a cd-key linked to that particular pc. if someone wants to put linux on it they can, but I have no need for a second desktop...
