$150 is about 78 english pounds which is fine but shipping across the Atlantic would probably kill the deal. I don't know if the processor meets your requirements. If you want me to boot it, I'll see.

Send me 225 USD and I'll send the box (tower only) to the UK. You'll receive it in 10 days according to the Postal Service web site.

You should be able to find something there but it seems to be taking a long time. Anyway, it's still here if you change your mind.
