Been a while since I've built a PC so kind of out of touch with the latest hardware, etc.
As such, I know I could muddle through and get all the bits I want separately but I wonder if there are any pre-made HTPC's or even barebone kits out there that people have or would recommend based on the vast knowledge of our geekier members?
Ideally the cheaper the better, I'll look at anything up to about £400. I saw one I liked the look of (Zotac I think it was called) but didn't have space for an optical drive, and ideally I'd like it to have at least 1x5.25" slot for a Blu-Ray drive.
Edit: Unless there are slimline Blu-Ray drives and cases which will take the slimline drives?
