Hi guys,
My sister came to me, asking where to buy a computer, so i told here of course that dell and gateway are crap. She just wanted a tower for ~$500. So i have decided on these components
Barton Athlon XP 2500+
Chaintech 7VIF4
Mushkin Basic Green 184 512MB DDR PC-2700
Seagate 7200 RPM IDE hard drive
In Win black/silver mATX case w/300watt PSU
In Win media card reader
Optorite Black CD/RW 52/32/52
Nec Floppy drive
Win XP home
Norton Internet Securities 2004
Should i go cheaper and get a Sempr0n? The current price is about $550 shipped, and thats fine, so i though i might as well go with a nice and comfy barton. The computer is for her to do her college work on, and listening to music, surfing, etc. Her Pentium II box just aint cutting it!
Thx in advance.
