Really cheap for a mini pc with 2TB hdd. Decent Configuration as well. Can be used as an HTPC with Kodi. Comes with Windows 8 so possibility to upgrade to Windows 10 for free as well.

Mine was from Ipswich. I couldn't drive so far so convinced them to drop it off closer to me at Colchester Sainsbury store. :smiley:
Bit of a rigmarole really but go it eventually.

I beat you with £79 the other day :-), pay less than £50 with my nectar point.
I love it. The only drawback is the power button at the back bottom.
I suggest to replace the main drive with SSD, and set the 2TB HDD as data drive. A few seconds boot with SSD.
You need to clone it, otherwise you'll lose the Windows, I'm not sure if you can use Acer recovery CD to setup the Windows.

I got one of those for £99 :smile: Wild goose chase to get one but worth it.
For a really basic Web pc it's OK. Although I've always found Acer to be real bottom of the barrel kit quality wise and crammed with crap Ware on first boot. These might suit a factory environment or something, so fair enough. Struggling to condemn but also feeling it's nothing to get excited about: Celeron processor. Not voted either way....
