That can't always work though, sometimes the disks get broken, there is nothing safe ever, To be honest, I can't belive you bought the 'desktop' that is disguised as a 'laptop'.. You may aswell have bought a laptop for the same price, if not cheaper......

I agree, there is no reason to buy a desktop that small - get a laptop instead. Parts are lower performance, over-heat easier and other problems. The only reason to get a desktop like that is to (perhaps) mount it in a vehicle.

Getting a desktop like that is like buying a Mclaren F1 with a V2, 30 hp engine in it :dodgy:

That is a very good example, it seriously is like buying an XBOX with atari 2000 interior.

I wanted a PC in my room, and my room is tiny, so buying a PC which had a box, screen, keyboard, mouse and speakers all seperate would be too big in total (especially considering im gona install a printer/scanner in a min).

A Laptop this price wouldnt have specs like this (and i dont think there is any laptop with 160GB HDD)

Also it will act as my TV too.

I'm pretty sure that you could've bought a laptop for the same specs as this one, and use it as a tv :dodgy:.. But in the end, its completely your choice whether or not you want to buy this desktop laptop thing.
