Good buy?

probably a decent deal- Depending on if they gave you a nice mobo and what fsb memory the corsair xms is. If they used all cheap parts you could probably build the same system for $1700. Most likely abs used a pretty decent mobo and high speed memory, so it probably comes out to you paying $100 or so for the tech support and warrantee.

Regardless, its a nice machine, and you should have be able to enjoy it for a while. Also, every upgrade channel seems to be open (sli, s939, etc.) so this machine should hold you for years.
 
Good enough for using firefox or checking e-mail, that I can be sure of.

Anyway, he picked a computer with a good processor, so he should enjoy it. ^_^
