ok im looking to get the ADVENT Centurion CPD1301

I dont know much about computers but.... this one doesnt seem to have an audio interface... i dont really get what that means? Does it mean it has no slots at all from like microphone and headphones at the front but has them at the back or???

If you could give me a very simple answer, it would be much appreciated

thanks Ant

Pretty much every modern computer has onboard sound. It'll have a sound port on the back, but not on the front. Probably your basic headphone port, microphone port, and line-in port.

Well, it has to have ports on the front. Check the picture closely. If it doesn't, then you'll have to find some sort of front bay that has ports. It'll send back a connector that you can plug onto your sound card, or your motherboard if it has the right connector. It's pretty standard. If you have a CD drive with a headphone port on it you could also use that.
