Default How sweet of a deal is this?(Bestbuy desktop computer)

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?...d=1142296669111

I know it's an e-machine it seems like a great bang for the buck comp to me with really nice specs, I am planning on going and buying it @ BB tomorrow, and probably upgrading the ram to 1-1.5 gig & buying a new Vid card to put in... Ideas/Opinions? I don't wanna make a bad purchase becasue I am not very tech savvy.

Buy eMachines if you want a garbage chipset and motherboard. You'll get what you pay for.

As long as you don't mind replacing it in 6 months to a year depending on how much you use it, this thing is fine.

Look at it this way, a copy of XP Home is $100. So this computer costs $115.

I just purchased an Acer Aspire t160. So far so good. Standard, 1 gig ram, Amd Athlon 64 3400+ processor, 200 gig hard drive, Nvidia geForce 6100 chipset...blah blah blah for $520.
