Oh by the way don't let the company catch you with your pants down by sticking a warranty seal on the case. If they do that, you can't open the case by yourselves at all or you lose all warranty, so you are screwed. You are essentially required to take the machine to the shop to do stuff like inserting a new video card.

It is also the reason why I prefer to build my own machines. As usual underpriced machines insert lame video cards and hope to sway people with processing power, however with a dual core processor you should at least get a Geforce 7 or 8 type card, both of which are actually very cheap nowadays and you don't need the highest priced models. You won't be able to get them however (not the series 8 anyways) on a AGP slot, cause there simply aren't any. Best bet is 7600GS which is the best available for the AGP slot at the moment. If you don't buy a decent GFX card you can very easily face bottlenecks in games that demand a bit more performance.

There are tons of other things that as underpriced as they are on that machine will definitely not withstand the future at all. But yeah, most of them cost. Like the rest have said above if you don't plan on expanding much on this machine, then sure take it. Otherwise continue scraping up cash.
