The Simpron processor is a huge dud. It wakes up in the morning and hopes to one day be a 1997 Celeron. Power use is lousy and the performance stinks.
Highly recommend you spend a few dollars extra and get a dual processor machine. Dual CPU's make a big difference. Even the wimpy pentium duo-core is pretty good.
I'd recommend coughing up $100 more for something that'll still be lively 3 years from now. And I recommend getting XP vs Vista if you have a choice. I couldnt be any less happy with Vista and the next major hiccup I get I'm going to do a fresh XP install on my laptop.
If you want to look at other options besides being a cheap bahstad, I'll look around and find something for you thats in a similar price area but had better specs.
