Yeah I'm in the UK and need a couple for spare puters, one is my mums which will get some WCG action on it and the other is an old P3 I want to Linux and again will see some WCG action.

Anyone got any they want rid of and I'll pay the shipping?

Or where in the UK sells them dirt cheap.

Can pick them up nowadays for 10-12 quid each off UK etailers. Not inc shipping though.

If that Linux machine is gonna WCG 24/7 (and nothing else), might be worth just buying 1 and swapping it when needed.

Yeah just the one might be a good idea, I've got one that seems like it's dead. I think I might just get a new DVD-RW for my PC and use my old one in here.

Anyone know where I can get a good VGA splitter? I should be asking in General Hardware but you guys are so much nicer.
