Most people here will tell you to build your own computer from parts you buy individually because you save money and generally can customize the hardware better. However if you're not knowledgeable with computers then just buy one premade, before building your own you should at least know and have experience doing something basic. (Adding a video card, stick of RAM, etc...)

As for buying a premade PC, just post the specs (processor, graphics card, RAM, etc) and wait for a positive or negative response here BEFORE you buy it.

Garbage, any particular reason why you are looking at this steaming load of sh*t?

Old Socket 478 2.4 GHZ P4
512 mb of DDR RAM
60 GB Harddrive.


Unless you posted the wrong model #, which I assume you did.

If you don't know much about computers...

Buy a bare bones kit and plug in a hard drive/video card/ etc and load up windows xp on it. End of story. Most just involve a few things to plug in and load an OS and you're set. No worrying about compatibility of components.

If you must get a premade, I really have no advice for you...
