That really depends on whether we are talking about hundreds of pictures, videos and music files or thousands. Do you want to to edit, play the above files or just store them?

If you buy a Pentium 4 with 160 gig hard drive from PC world, you will be well on your way to a half decent PC for about �300.00 + monitor etc

Any PC at all will do this, even the most basic on the market at present. What's the most "intensive" thing you'd be doing with it? Playing games? Video/audio/image editing?

If all that you're doing is surfing the internet, downloading and using Office then all you need to cater for is having sufficient RAM and a big enough hard drive to store all your gumph.
