The aftermath...

Well as you all should know building my WHS went without a hitch, but the software let me down big style so as a result the computer went on ebay. Not that it matters but i sold it to my best friend in the end, and the hard drives went to another friend.

Well now that thats all sorted i can get back to having a bit of cash and what not.

I feel i need to mention carboot sales are ace to make a quick bit of cash, not to sell there but to buy cheap electronics and sell on ebay. For example a DS Lite was on sale for £50, i haggled it down to £40, sold it on ebay for £60 plus p&P! Perfect.

Also i'm now on the hunt for a laptop, as i am starting college soon and figured one would help, plus it saves me lugging around my desktop when i want a LAN party (yes i know i'm a geek)
I was orriginally going to go and buy an acer aspire one off ebay brand new for £190, seems like a good deal right? Well yes if you want a pc for checking emails out and about. But i figured i could not deal with a 9 inch screen and insanely slow proccessing speeds (as im now used to my quad core) so i set my sights (and my budget) a little higher at £499 and pointed my web browser in the direction of www.laptopsdirect.co.uk and found that for that price i can get a 2GHZ dual core, 4GB ram decent mobile graphics, a blu-ray drive and a laptop with DVI, HDMI out and the usual card reader etc! That in my opinion is a good buy and unless prices come down or a new laptop is better, that will be my laptop of choice, this one right here > http://www.laptopsdirect.co.uk/asp/versions.asp?rewrite=Acer_Aspire_6530G_Laptop_LX.AUS0X.142&pagetype=version&page=

Well anyway thats enough from me.
