Nope =/ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883157156

That looks similar, and you prolly could of bought the parts for like 300 bucks. And HP computers normally come with a lot of problems. I am sure it should be fine for browsing the net though.

It's ok but I hope you don't play on using it for gaming. 1.6ghz processor is meh. Browsing the Internet/playing runescape or lower end games should be good.

HP isn't fantastic, something like Dell or ASUS is a lot more reliable. If you're only going to do be doing normal tasks and not high end gaming then you should be fine. Stuff like web browsing and word processing and such you should have no problems with.

I think it's a good purchase, have fun with the new computer!

You got swindled for double the price. Those parts/computer can be built for a measly $250 range. Next time you can afford it build your own and ask for help in this section.

Yep you paid easily 100$ to much for this one, not really a great computer. :$
