431.0. "PC for the kids" by FIELD::LOUGHLINI (Carpe Diem) Tue May 07 1991 16:31

Looking for a PC for my kids aged 11 and 14. Difficult to be specific
because I havn't paid too much attention to PCs myself. Guess the intended
application will be games and whatever else kids get up to on computers.

Maybe a system that was an 'unwanted' xmas present or maybe your own
kids have grown tired of. Not too old and in reasonable nick. Don't want
to pay full shop price for a new one until we know what we actually want
and are sure that it's not just a passing fad., etc., etc.

Ian,

    These days you can pick up a new one with fairy good functionality 
    for less than 600 Pounds.

    Obviously, a second hand one would cost less.
