Well, been discussing buying a mini PC in another thread, The Asus ION 330. Not sure if it is the right thing to go for or should i build my own Mini PC? So, if that were the case what spec should i go for? I haven't got a clue? Budget would be around a max of £400. I already own a TFT, keyboard and mouse.

People, i really need help on what to choose? AMD or INTEL?

Just want to build either a very small desktop PC that will do for 'general' PC use. Not gaming. No photo Manipulation. Just internet use mainly with some word processing.

So, can someone please give me some pointers? Many thanks
