Hahaha... thats what I am going to end up doing.

On a side note, any recommendations regarding getting WiFi connectivity? Should I go USB or PCI?

You said it's only a interim solution until you move into your new house where everything is hardwired.

I would just get a USB adapter.

Yeah I should be in the new house July time.

Any suggestions? Ideally I would like stable fast connection :)

Is that not maybe an overkill or are they all the price? Obviously want to save cash where ever possible :)

I thought maybe you could use it for something in the future, but honestly if the PC and router aren't far apart even a cheap 150Mbps adapter can do 5+MB/s

In my new house I'm planning to have every PC wired so won't really have any use for it. So really liking me for something that will give me good speeds till then.

Any adapter really will work I used to have a R99 150Mbps one bought at Incredible Connection and it's still capable of speeds faster than Telkom can give me, if your router supports it though go for a dual band one.

Something like this: TP-Link

Or is that going too budget?

I'm sure it will be fine, that looks similar to the one I used and it was able to give me my full 20Mbps at about 12m through 2 walls.

I just know the best typing keyboards I've used over the years have all been Microsoft.
 
So just got confirmation that they can get the case so payment has been made. Went for the white version (something different). Only downside is will only get it next week so no building this weekend.

Also ordered the TP-Link USB WiFi dongle.

Gives you time to find a keyboard. Which mouse did you end up buying?
