Any good ?

Not looking for anything fancy, just able to read/send email and generally surf.

Yeah. Almost the same spec as mine i brought 2 yrs ago for £600

Just fine ---

I worry about overheating in this small box

Looking at the spec, its nothing special, and the graphics card is very low spec from a series that is a few generations old.. but then its cheap, and its a full PC including operating system.

as a general Surfing/email/word processing machine its a good buy

I could match or better the spec with quality components ie 4GB RAM instead and 500GB HDD. Add the cost of an OS in there though and it gets hard to beat bundles such as these.

As above more than adequat for general home/office apps and browsing.

Mrs as just gone to Tesco's I suspect she will have a box under her arm when she gets back, let you know how we get on.

Tis just for office in our new unit, surfin, email that's about it.
