Very good, fast processor. I like the 2 GB Memory (RAM) the hard drive is nice. Super fast and very easy to put a graphics card in

bad Intel graphics, vista(getting better, just new to it, havnt really had any problems with it yet, just new to me)

Good, strong overall spec's right out of the box. The machine is ready to go, just need to fire it up

Not really a con, but if you are planning to play any games, just get yourself a nice PCI express card and you are good to go. Also, this is my main home machine, but I use it for work alot. I need to be able to remotely connect to it from work. I...

I received the product in 2days!! newegg service rocks

Good service but Slow respond to my email from newegg

Pretty fast when compare my old computer. Newegg has a great price and fast shipping

First of all, uninstall most if not all the start-up programs. Vista takes while getting used to. My problem is that some webpages are aligned at the left margin leaving valueable unused space at the right. To do a Word or Ecel doc, I have to manually...

purchased for small business applications, love the 2GB of RAM, great for the price

price has risen since i purchased (sucks for you), pre-installed software sucks

Pretty fast for loading software for use. Start-up is fast

Computer comes with unnecessary start-up softwares, but it is easily removed

Price can't be beat. Very expandable: 2GB (expands to 4) of RAM keeps things fast. CPU is fast. PCI x16 slot supports bigger, badder video cards

Onboard video is junk, though capable of Vista Premium's groovy new Aero effects. Keyboard is lousy (who's still using PS2?)

Pretty much agree with everyone else. Just a few other things to point out ; 1) Added GT5438: CORSAIR ValueSelect 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 533 (PC2 4200) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model VS2GBKIT533D2 ; bringing total memory to 4gig ;...

Continued from above ; 3) The included burner is a Samsung TSST TS-H652D IDE drive ; I tried adding a Lite-On IDE burner, that I had, but it would not burn a playable disc with Visa (using Nero 7). Neither did an older Samsung IDE ; So I decided to buy...

It's real good, and so cheap. The only pc like this you will find for this price. It is super silent, I hear absolutely no sound coming from it. It's fast, and has a pci-e slot for video gamers.I upgraded with a 8600 gt card wow. Made the pc even faster

Vista is difficult to get pass with many of my favorite programs and games.So installed a new windows xp

The most HW you'll get for under $500..and from a reputable source. Room for expansion of RAM, HD, Vid Card, etc

I'm not a big fan of the doors over the drive-bays. You have to manually push the CD drive to close it, rather than the button. The door covering the portable bay/mic/headphone/FW jack sticks. Still wouldn't be enough to dissuade me from the purchase
