For all the spec experts (spec-perts) out there.

All I'm after is the a small stylish SFF build with basic specs for internet browsing and office work. Nothing more than that. I got this so far (see quote below). Can someone double check if the spec is good. And if possible, cut the price down in the case/matching (colour) monitor?

I only have one requirement: case has to be nice and small.

Thanks, show me your magic! :):)
 
Eee sure sounds good, I've no idea how good those Intel Atom, whether or not they're dual cores and I'm a tad worried Eee doesnt give enough options to upgrade in the future.
 
Ok, for my previous friend I went for a Asus barebone machine, now back for a hunt for a SFF, I'm planning on getting everything from OcUK (live near by)

How's this? It's basically a basic upgrade for a college student (no gaming) I've got a IDE HDD and DVD drives. I've looked at the gigabyte boards and apparently you need to do a BIOS update, I don't fancy that. :)
