something i picked out just now. see any issues here?


advantages to this is that its tiny; think mac mini size.

con is that it has std on board video. but it does have a pcie slot for better graphics.

also, this is the low budget build. you can upgrade the cpu for any i series, hd for more space, more ram, add a nic
