Re Book PC - I've been seriously looking at getting one of these to hook up
to my TV\Hi Fi to act as TV based Internet access, MP3 server, digiguide
server etc. Check out the following:

https://www.secured-space.com/addonsonline/cgi-bin/shop.pl
check under "Our
Quickest Pre Systems"

http://www.mtlonline.co.uk/indexaopen.asp
check under "BareBone PCs"

http://www.dtkcomputer.co.uk/

I haven't bought from any of these companies before, so I can't vouch for
them.

If you take the plunge, let me know how you get on.

Cheers
Don

Don't think so although I'm sure I could get some shipped over if anyone is
really desperate.

Now, what I'm looking for is anyone in the UK that sells the "Book
PC" type
machines which I want for making an ADSL firewall. Don't need the
processor,
memory, HD etc (got that stuff). just the motherboard and case -- would
need
a USB port (for ADSL) and 10-baseT port.

If you haven't seen one, they look like this:
