Nicely put together, totally rock solid so far, with decent=20
performance, but definitely not silent running - perhaps marginally=20
quieter than your average PC?

Installed Linux on mine, and was very pleasantly surprised to find=20
that TV-out works straight out of the box for the whole PC.=20
Additional driver disk is supplied for tv-out with various flavours=20
of Windows too.

Only other thing to watch is that the two memory slots take a maximum=20
of 256k DIMM per slot. Oh, and the Maplin blurb says you need to add=20
your own CPU fan. You don't - there's one slung in the box.
