$400 for those specs are a big rip IMO esp for a Celeron CPU and Vista Basic. but if it does what you need it for then

The main one with all the multimedia I got back in 2005 is a HP Media Center m1050e with a AMD Athlon64 3200+ (1.8 Ghz NewCastle) single core CTO from Office Depot. I also have another Media Center about a year older running a 3.2 Ghz Pentium 4 with HT (Prescott). Both have TV tuners and and not maxed out on RAM yet. I have probably upgraded the drives on those more with all the media I have, lol. The only downside on those units I see it not running dual core. The one I use the most in my Toshiba Satellite A215-S4757 with the Turion X2 TL-56 running Windows 7 RC 64-bit. This one is pushing two years and I'm probably replacing it this fall.
400,000+ miles; it keeps going and going...

Note on SSD (highly I recommend if you don't need that much space) -
This article better explains why you need SSD, basically justfying it's purchase. It explains it more in a more practical sense. I have the ocz vertex, but a diff. model. It really is that impressive in person.

[ A difference of 24 seconds hardly seems like much, until you actually think about it in terms of PC response time. We expect our computers to react immediately to input; even waiting 6.6 seconds is an eternity. Waiting 31 seconds is agony in the PC world. Worst of all? This is on a Core i7 system. To have the world’s fastest CPU and to have to wait half a minute for a couple of apps to launch is just wrong. ]
