		<description><![CDATA[It appears there&#8217;s some confusion, even among a few of my colleagues, about audio and PC speakers and amplifiers and stuff like that. Specifically, whether you can plug a PC into normal stereo speakers, whether it will work if you do and how to do it. We&#8217;ll start with a few simple facts in handy [...]]]></description>

If you look closely (click on the picture for a larger view), you may notice that it didn&#8217;t actually arrive in pristine condition. The box was clearly battered and crushed in [...]]]></description>

I&#8217;m now left with the final decision: from a shortlist of three, which system offers the best return for my budget?
Option 1:

It took mere hours for my baseline Vostro PC to be bettered, thanks in no small part to blog reader Tom A pointing me in the direction of Ebuyer&#8217;s pre-built PC section. There, for a penny-perfect £249.99 inc VAT and delivery, sat the Zoostorm Versatile Premium PC which now tops my shortlist.

A quick jump to the business section took me straight to Dell&#8217;s cheapest Vostro PC, which at £211.60 including VAT and delivery is well within my price limit. So what else can I squeeze into the remaining [...]]]></description>
