Yesterday i bought a self built computer.
(Basic) Specs:

1.8 GHZ
80 gig Hard drive
256 mb ram
XP pro


I bought it for $150.
Good deal?
 
ZeroCool at first it seemed like you said YOU built this computer than i realized that from the way you listed the specs you probably do not know enough to build one yourself. you got a great deal as long as thats not a 1.8Ghz celereon or duron processor........no actually it still would be a GREAT deal. you are very lucky :)

of course it's a good deal.. as said above.. the cpu alone worth the price of the computer..

Wow, that is an awesome deal.

Just add another stick of 512mb memory and you have 768mb of memory to power your computer for around 100-150$, which is a great amount of memory and will power anything with no problems.

The processor and harddrive are pretty good, and with a good video card inside of it, that would add around 100-200$ to the cost, so overall you would have a powerhouse computer for just around $500, so yes, you got a great deal

Just curious, but how did you actually get that deal?

A friend, a store, online........ ??

66 + 50 + 40 + 199 (assuming it's legitimate :confused: )
+ 50 (for case and PSU) + 50 (mobo) + 30 (assuming theres a cd(-rw?) drive) + 10 (assuming there is a floppy)

brings you to around 500 dollars. I'd say it was worth it :-/
 
If the CPU is a celeron, then, it is only partially good. get rid of the cpu if it is celeron and replace it with a P4 ( check your motherboard manual to see what processors it can handle) add more ram, and if you want get a mid range vid card, or a sound card.
