forget the gaming bit, this one is brilliant for the price
flattythehurdler:
Thanks very much Esteban , @habanerocat and @Copper_pipe
If we were to assume for an instant that that HDD/sdd thing isn’t going to be a runner, which of the computers ye mentioned would ye buy?
Won’t be used for gaming I don’t think, the lad has an Xbox (usually confiscated)
Herself likes the idea of a touch screen, but windows / Microsoft office would be better than apple really.
They all look grand.
I’m happy to go with whatever ye advise.
I know these things run out of date though, so would like something reasonablly future proof that will last without significant update for about ten years.
Have you seen this post?

Very Good…
So the only difference between the Dell 7770 I speced above is the software (£260), touch screen option and is has a smaller SSD, saving a good £1000. The i7 processor is a bit slower and weaker also, but I couldn’t quantify that.
I doubt Mrs flatty will be running space launches any time soon

Good solid machine. Get’s the job done, no ifs no buts.
If it was a footballer, who would it be? Gordon Henderson ?
