Thanks mate, appreciate that, but looking to pay even less, lol!

if you use xp, the cheaper 1gig revo will be fine, not sure if theyre still available at RRP but i think I only paid about 160, I dont think theres another realistic option, the revo is so much cheaper than its competitors.

ive got a revo r3610, hardly been used and still has the stickers on it. still have the box with the vesa mount.

i think its the 2gb ram, 250gb version. but will have to check.
also i dont have the keyboard or mouse that it came with either.

want £150 delivered for it.

Think I'm looking to go Ubuntu and XBMC/Boxee for simplicity anyway, cheers.

If you could let me know the specs, that would be great. Any idea on the OS?

pm sent with spec and more info

There's a mahooooosive thread on the revo and especially the 3610 and also some tutorials. It's the one I have and I'm running ubuntu/xbmc on it without issue. Others are running win7/xbmc etc. also without issue. Believe me it's the one to go for.
