...phew, thanks for the warm welcome chaps and comprehensive replies - one of the best welcomes I've had on the web!
I'm tied up a work at the mo, so I can't say too much at the mo, but I have one further question about muiltiple PC's I have 2 other PC's I'd like to consider connecting - will the engineer help in this department

(a bung) or will I be left to my own devices?
