Basic shuttle build

[Guardsmon]

Hi, I'm building a basic SFF for a mate who wants dual boot between linux and win XP.
I already have a 500GB for WinXP and a 80GB for linux.

I've currently got this:
Shuttle KPC K45 Barebone System Black - Intel Core 2 Duo (LGA775)
£79.99
(£91.99)
Intel Celeron E1200 1.6Ghz Dual-Core Processor (LGA775) - Retail Intel Celeron E1200 1.6Ghz Dual-Core Processor (LGA775) - Retail
£33.99
(£39.09)
Corsair 2GB DDR2 Value Select PC2-5300C5 Dual Channel Kit (2x1GB) (VS2GBKIT667D2) Corsair 2GB DDR2 Value Select PC2-5300C5 Dual Channel Kit (2x1GB) (VS2GBKIT667D2)
£22.99
(£26.44)
Sub Total : £136.97
Shipping : £8.99
VAT : £20.55
Total : £157.52

(I know I can take the shipping off so total: £148.53)
Have I forgotten anything. and can you make any other suggestions. I have a MAX of £200 to spend. The 500 + 80 is costing me £50
so I am just over the mark... £198.53

o and I have an old optical drive knocking about..... does anyone know how many hard drive bays are in this case and whether it has a 5.25"?

any help please

For your answers.

Looks as good as you're going to get really, without going through the for sale threads.

thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that it had no optical.... damn thing

looks like I'll have to swop it out for this:

Shuttle KPC K48 Barebone System - Intel Core 2 Duo (LGA775) £99.99
(£114.99)

It just cuts out my £30 commission..... damn damn case.

has the K48 got a PCI slot though as I've seen the back as having a PCI panel?
