- looks good.
- use what you have and be happy why buy smething you dont' need. if you are trying to save pictures then you can buy external hard drive and get usb cord and do that for saving it but nope dont' buy it.
- Truthfully, no. Usually these days PC's, even cheap ones, go for at least 200 dollars. Your definetely not gonna want to buy on for 75 dollars without getting to know the owner and getting to know alot more about it. Even then, buying online is also very risky. Hope this helped.
- Sure, that's about right. You'll need a monitor.
- Wouldn't waste my money on that. Not worth it.
- It will ble alright for web surfing, mail checking, simple word processing etc... But forget gaming, video editing and other resource intensive tasks. It won't be as fast as the new computers on the market but as long as you don't install to much useless programs and bloat on it, it will be just okay.
- It's not much of a computer, but it's not much of a price, either. Even their upgrades are reasonably priced, and their shipping calculator is fair. If you need another light-duty computer, pay for it with a credit card or paypal, and you have recourse if they don't ship. I can't find any recent ratings on that company's reliability.
- It's actually not too bad, but the AGP slot is the deal killer. You should pass on this. It will be slow with the integrated video, and you can't upgrade it without spending way too much. Don't do it.
- I has 2 Gz Pentium 4 CPU, so it will not be a screamer, but it may do the job. It has 2 memory slots, and they can hold a GB each, so you should be good. AGP card slot, so you may be stuck with integrated graphics. It comes without a monitor,but you probably knew that. NB: Small form factor, add-in cards may have to be short. Computer Repairman
- Well, you can definately buy it if you want to, theres nothing wrong with the site or anything. Its definately real. But it isn't that great of a computer. And it is a little overpriced. These computers are around a year to 2 years old and come from offices that have upgraded their computers. Their actual value would be around 30-40 dollars. But its up to you man.
- It should be, 2.4 ghz is a good fast processor, 1 gb of ram is fine on Windows XP.
