did you look into what graphics interface was available on the motherboard?

if the price is right(has a pci-e/agp slot)... buy the computer..... try CSS (probably wont run that well at all) and save up for a graphics card.... in the mean time.. you have a decent computer still.

At at least another 512mb ram.

Well, it's good for basic games and some games from 2003 or so.

Integrated Graphics aren't meant for anything intense, like gaming or photoshopping. Just for making Windows run.

Plus, that graphics card will probably eat up 256MB of your memory anyways, leaving you with 256MB for Windows XP

Cheap Cpu...
Not much Ram...
No GFX...
Small HDD...

But for a budget computer its pretty good

how cheap is it? if it's very cheap at all you could go ahead and get it and do some cheap simple upgrades and have a decent pc, like adding another 512mb of ram for example and probably upgrading your gpu.

if you dont wanna do that, have you ever thought about building your own? i know that after i built my first pc i vowed to never buy another whole unit again.
