Finally Got Me A New Computer

[Jeza]

As the local authority are taking my money hand over fist, I decided to spend some myself.
I intend taking the old one to the tip. Can anyone tell me what I need to do to it to make it safe from the scrotes out there.

Clanad. Took me ages but it is now done and computer put back together. I'll have to wait until tomorrow to batter it though. Dustman due tomorrow, I wonder if he will run over it for me?
