About the Author:
Ben Hardwidge is the news and features editor of the leading enthusiast magazine Custom PC, and has spent five years working for UK computer magazines. He's been fiddling around with PCs since his dad bought a Sinclair PC200 in 1988, which he dismantled in a desperate effort to force it to run games. Since then, he's owned PCs from every processor generation, right up to his current 3.4GHz Pentium 4 (lovingly fitted into his modded Sinclair PC200 case). Ben lives in Brighton, and when he's not doing strange things to PCs, he can be found listening to iron Maiden, messing about with old synthesizers, and avoiding anything that sounds like real work.
