Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Did not buy this from Amazon, picked it up for $350 at J&R Computer world.
This is probably the best $350 I ever spent. It replaced a 400 mhZ 256 mb ram 100 gig total HDD space, so anything was an improvement. Setup consisted of plugging it in, turning it on, and typing in a Username and password. Ran great under Vista, completely reliable (people need to stop ragging on Vista). A while ago I upgraded the wimpy 350 watt power supply to a 500 and added a 8800 gt overclocked graphics card. I also added Win& and it runs like a dream.
Pros:
Fast, lots of RAM, nice forward facing USB and headphone ports.
Has a pretty bug HDD
Cons:
Onboard Graphics suck. Couldn't smoothly drive a 21.5" (1920*1080) LCD smoothly (Windows Media Center, Google earth, even the little fade thing that windows 7 does)
Power supply sucks
Poor case ventalation for my overpowered 8800 gt. With a cheaper card it should be fine.
The motherboard is technically mini-atx, so you can't put it into a bigger case. That shouldn't be a problem for normal people, but it bothers me.
Overall:
Great computer. Runs every thing I've thrown at it.
