Looks a cracking deal to me. There's a MEDION Akoya P5348 DR PC (B-Grade) also but that has Intel® Core ™ i5-4440 quad-core processor, NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX745 DirectX®11 graphics with 2048MB DDR5 graphics memory, DVI-I, HDMI and 8 GB DDR3 RAM but it's just shy of £300 but even at that, it seems a good price.

What's the quickest way to change the Windows 8 interface to something less tablet-looking?
Other than switching to Windows 7, obviously =p

Just set it up to boot straight into the desktop, it's 90% of the way there then.
Just use the desktop in Windows 8, you don't need to change anything! Windows 8.1 update 1 boots to the desktop anyway.

I'd give standard Windows 8 a chance, but it's pretty easy to install a conventional start menu (http://www.extremetech.com/computing/141702-how-to-bring-the-start-menu-and-button-back-to-windows-:sunglasses:
Windows 10 is out soon, includes a start menu and will be a free upgrade, so that will also help you.

Fantastic price for a not to bad spec, good for anything internet, browsing based PC.
I guess this will have space internally for an upgrade.

Out of curiosity anyone else bought a B grade PC from Medion before? Usually hear mixed reviews with a lot saying they seem brand new!
Processor is £90 alone though so can't really go wrong I don't think!

I would expect b grade from something portable not a desktop

HEAT!
Great bit of kit for the price and you get Windows 8.1 with it!
