This computer, i bought and it arrived yesterday. It is really fast. Team it up with a good sound system, and you will enjoy your DVD experience even more on your PC. it is a fast DVD player. 12x DVD, 8x cd writer... complete! It has network card installed for your broadband connections (DSL).

Well... for me. i am completely satisfied. this computer is fast. :)

Honestly, a very good machine. Besides starting out with a great amount of options, (DVD, CDRW, 256MG ram), the chip is overclockable to 1.5GHTZ easily. Plus, the chip can be upgraded to PIII. A very good machine for the price. If you're looking for a lowend machine with midrange possibilities, pick it up!

Isn't funny how after a while these reviews all seem to be the same? If you notice the reviews for the other computer system's, you will see they are the same. The details were changed, but they seem to be a form letter...!!

This computer is AWESOME! I just got it and it has never frozen in the month that i've had it. It has alot (512 MB) of RAM which makes windows XP run great. The 1.7 GHz Intel Pentium 4 processor is flawless and makes the computer run fast, very fast. The 80 GB hard drive is great for storing big files. It also has a great graphics card (GeForce MX 400) which makes games such as Max Payne run really well, and the graphics card also has a whopping 64 MB of memory and an S-Video TV out port. The EA Games and EA Sports bundles that came with it includes awesome games, such as Need For Speed: Porcshe Unleashed, Simcity 3000 Unlimited, Tiger Wood's Pro PGA Golf 2001, Madden 2001, and Triple Play Baseball. DVD's run on it great, due to the fast DVD drive. And with the fast CD-RW drive and Roxio's Easy CD Creator 5 Software making CD's is very easy. The Smart Credit Card Keyboard is conveinent, if you have a Smart Credit Card and don't know what to do with it. The Ethernet Card is also a nice feature if you want to hook up a network, or if you have or want to get Broadband Communications. Overall this computer deserves 5 stars because it's a steal at ... and it has great features.

i had problems with unit freezing up when i tried to use a game cds. video and audio cards are not much to start with and are integrated into motherboard, so upgrading is either very difficult or not possible from what i have been told. ask specific questions and demand accurate answers about what this and any computer will and can do in the future. live and learn. j
