The thing is with your business you can't segregate your expenses too much - what comes into the business comes into your pocket directly, and what flows out flows out of your own pocket. You need to be personally restricted in spending, and your habits will reflect in the business. How about this - after a year's trading, review your books again. If you have been successful enough, take a lump sum out of capital and spend it on a killer PC upgrade. But be brutally honest with your income. In the meantime perhaps take a few thousand and upgrade a few components just so that your PC will be up to date - say a Q9550, 4gb ram and a 4890. That right there will play anything you throw at it.
