Know that you gotta buy another 1 gig of memory for this thing to run acceptably.
Looks like it has 4 USB ports in the back and two in front, not 7 in back and two in front like it says in the description.
Seriously… PS2 Keyboard and Mouse?
Heh, guess we know that btalarczyk lives in Ohio!

Doesn’t say any thing about video. Maybe that is the buyers reponsibility.
It is integrated INTEGRATED! Run!!
My Dad just bought this same computer (also refurbished) from Tiger Direct last week for $20 more (+ another $20 shipping so $35 more than woot altogether, and probably sales tax on top of that). I was over his place the other day and checked it out, seems to run Vista just fine on 1GB of RAM, didn’t notice any slowdown or lag although the biggest workout we gave it was to play part of a movie on it, but it performed flawlessly. This is a good deal for $229.
Better hope it doesn’t have Vista SP1 on there, or it wouldn’t matter how many gigabytes of RAM you have.
Or rather, 4 in back and 3 up front, according to the pictures on Tigerdirect.
I bought one last wootoff for the same $.
USB ports, Has 4 in back 3 in front total 7.
Needs memory, I added 2 1 gig sticks of OCZ memory from Fry’s <$26 AR and a memory card from the Egg for <$16 AR.
Looks borderline acceptable for what I want to do with it. Anybody know what the max ram on this thing is? will it take 4gb?
Looks borderline acceptable for what I want to do with it. Anybody know what’s taking up 1 of the 2 PCI slots? video’s integrated, I would assume so are sound and ethernet…what else IS there?
Someone who own that particular computer might comment more precisely, but a slot could be taken by a set of connectors. The PCI slot itself is not taken but the space next to it would be, if you see what I mean.
