I would say that it is an OK deal. I am leery of integrated graphics
cards. They often use system memory and you often give up the AGP port.
If you shopped around a little, you could probably get an XP 1900+ or
2000+ for the same price or pretty close. I would also make sure that
they are using decent (name brand) components. I would place more
importance on the motherboard, memory and video card. If they are using
a PC Chips MB, or similar MB, I might stay away.
