Stuart's Build.

This is just a short thread to say thanks for the TPU members who kind enough gave me a Windows key to use on the build. For those of you that don't know, Staurt is a close friend of the family and also mentally handicapped and he was stuck with a Dell Inspiron 1100 so I put my spare part's together and pretty much got a full rig from it, minus a chassis & Windows key this is where I paid for a chassis myself & posted on TPU as a 'cry for help' with my OS problem which promptly got resolved with the help of you guys!

Since then I was having trouble getting down to Stuart who lives around 70 miles from me which didn't help with the situation but today I finally made it and set the whole thing up for him, he is more than delighted with the upgrade! That speaks for me too so once again thank you TPU members!!

Here is Stuart & his build.

Meh it's nothing much, although it would of been a nice backup PC of some sort. I'd rather it be used than just stored.

I'm just thankful for the generosity of other TPU user's! Who without I couldn't of finished the build of so cheaply otherwise as I'd of probably gone for Windows 7 and used the classic taskbar/menu which Stuart has become a custom with and wouldn't be so easy for him to change.
