Don't speak to soon, LOL but I'm actually quite pleased with this. Maybe paid more than I should have as it didn't come with a keyboard and mouse. It was £65. The case itself is in god nick too, just a little grubby.
If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Good stuff! I think lucky to get any machine for £65 these days.

Time to clean it up and see if it works. Gas mask and Dyson to the ready.

You know, just when you were looking forward to fixing another broken STFM motherboard and you plug it in and find out it works. :roll:

Its actually a 520 not a 1040, so a little disappointed about that but not much considering how much I paid and got a PSU thrown in t boot.

I have the socket already, so may glitter it all up if I keep it.
