Visparts & Exeed could be worth a try, next time for HP (both authorised HP parts resellers) I remember EMPR having import issues with batts not that long ago, due to the ongoing lithium/airline cargo ban. A poor excuse though,just send them to NZ via ship.	1101 (13337)

A poor excuse though,just send them to NZ via ship. Tried several, but many didn't have them. My mistake before- It was a Toshoba Battery Not HP. But this is what I got store.emprgroup.co.nz	wainuitech (129)

But this is what I got store.emprgroup.co.nz EMPR must be pretty clever chaps. They can ship before they have the parts :) "Availability:Ships within 1-3 Days " "Available (Leadtime 1-2 Weeks.)"	1101 (13337)
1427413	2016-10-21 07:56:00	Few years ago had to get a power supply for a Compaq EVO310 through EMPR which took about a Month to get here but at the time there was not very choices	Lawrence (2987)

1427416	2016-10-31 15:15:00	i would strongly suggest an ITX build and a screen with a built-in USB hub. that way you get a easy to maintain computer for the next 10-20 years, that you can hide under the desk, with a monitor featuring all the ports you'd expect from an all-in-one on the desk. I am very much looking forward to the eventual replacement of vga/dvi/hdmi/displayport with usb3.1/4.0 maybe with usb4.0 they can finally bring eSATAp into the fold.	Mirddes (10)
1427417	2016-10-31 16:12:00	for the case i'd go with a coolermaster elite 130 for $70, other than ITX everything else is bog-standard. ASRock h110m-ITX/ac can be had for $130, provides everythign you'd expect form a modern motherboard Intel core i5 6400 is only $250 but really you could any processor for usecase as described in your original post. dvd drive is maybe $40, bluray $100 16GB stick of ddr4 is less than $120 whist a fullHD monitor with usb3 hub can be had for less than $300, once you bump the resoltion up you're in the $500-1000 range and the sizes naturally increase too. if you're happy with yoru current all-in-one's screen then look no further than a cheap screen. link to pricespy filter i though was suitable pricespy.co.nz ok im tired, maybe these ideas will inspire more discussion. depending on the cpu/screen you can build a decent itx system for less than a grand, less than 2grand if you want the realyl nice screen and lots of storage remember a comptuer is an investment much like a car. unlike a cellphone if you treat it well it might last longer than you.

AIO pros Compact Convenient All hardware known to work together No cables needed for most things AIO cons Difficult to repair Very limited upgrade options Cooling If any part fails the whole thing can end up scrap. That said I replaced a low powered NUC/ 24" monitor combo with an i5 powered AIO and prefer it in my bedroom where space is at a premium. On a desk I'd suggest a NUC and a nice monitor. www.pbtech.co.nz For example, makes itx look huge.	dugimodo (138)
1427419	2016-11-02 22:01:00	Like the look of the NUC and might be a cheaper route - looking at the spec - assume I need to price in memory, HD (and screen) - anything else?	Kiwibarge (17505)
