Right, I'm in the situation where I must buy a DVD-Writer, and paying delivery for just that seems like a huge waste of money.

So I'm looking for something between £10-30 so I don't feel terrible about paying 8quid postage for a 19 quid DVD writer.

My computer is in my sig, the recommended items/gadgets don't have to be anything for that. Also it doesn't have to be one item, it can be a combination of many.

Please help me, I'm in a dire situation!! :p
 
I'd possibly be considering a new keyboard although I have no idea how good the IBM is. Do you already have a good CPU cooler? If not the Arctic Freezer 7 is within your budget. Maybe go wireless if you haven't already?

Alternatively I guess you could take a look in local shops and see if you can get the product cheaper without including the postage :)

The DVD-Writer is not for me, so while I'm purchasing I'm using it as a bit of an excuse to buy something small and useful (so next week I don't accidentally buy a £400 graphics card or something)

I will probably be buried with my IBM Model M Keyboard. Primarily because it doesn't have the irritating windows key. And when I use it, I can pretend that I'm working twice as hard as I actually am due to the wall of noise it creates.
I actually have the Arctic Cooling fan already, and an unopened PCI wifi card sitting on my bed.
Thanks for the suggestions though.

I have a MX1000, and recently refound my MS Intellimouse Explorer 3, so don't need a new mouse, and I have a XTrac Hybrid mousepad which is so big I could probably cut it in half to double the life.
