Take the above. It's a barebones system for 225. What would it take to turn that into a functional pc besides:

monitor
keyboard, mouse etc.
hard drive
Cd/dvd drive
RAM
processor (AMD)

I'm not sure about sound. Does it require a soundcard? Is the motherboard/PSU already installed?

Cheers,
Quad

Shuttle XPCs are small form factor barebone systems with a stylish aluminum case, integrated mainboard, special power supply and patented I.C.E. heatpipe cooling system. Despite its small dimensions the new range of XPCs includes models designed to incorporate mainstream desktop components at all levels of the market. You will get a fully equipped PC with additional components like CPU, memory, drives and input devices. The Shuttle XPC accepts the same type of PC components, which are also found in much bigger systems.

Seems the moainboard is already installed for ya...

specs also mention sound output as a 5.1 surround sound, implying that their is onboard sound on the motherbaord :P
