What you will probably be doing is using the "main" computer to provide external services anyway. In this case there is little advantage to using a DMZ.

Thank you very much for that eminently intelligible explanation. I actually understood it.
None of my computers, main included, will be offering services to the internet. Having said that I may want to provide access to ssh at some later stage so that I could access my computer when I'm away from home.
DMZ appears to be something I don't really need at present.
