Looking for a small compact computer that I can hook up to my TV in the living room. Really only want to use it for netflix, youtube videos and maybe downloading some films and music. Don't want to spend more then £250

I could easily purchase a 320 Gbyte HDD and I have a dvd drive as well. Why? what is your plan?
Something like this, perhaps.

Yeah that is great thanks for your time. I think I will put in a cheaper case and a slightly faster processor. I just hope Netfilx will run ok on Linux or else I will need more money for windows xD
