You could drive it round the estate mate, I have done, but the drivers side seat is only held in with mdf subframe as I used it as a template to make a metal one but never finished it.

Yeah I use one on my bedroom pc, overclocked to 900mhz. Streams hd movies off my nas and live tv from linux tvheadend server in the loft. It runs fine and also time shifts with a bit of faffing about. Runs openelec which I found best. As said, don't expect uber performance, and use a lightweight skin.

No mate, there a right mother hen to replace. Had a set on my Escort Cosworth and cracked one down a pothole, had to get it welded.
