Too much....Buy a Gateway and get more computer for half the price.

Gateway, nothing but a re-badged eMachine.

I purchased a Gateway desktop, after buying a lemon from Dell. It has
a AMD dual core, with similar CPU speed to the Dell, but the Dell ran
slower than my old machine and the Gateway was blazing fast. Gateway
also limited the number of "crapware" they preinstalled on the computer.
Dell was loaded with the stuff. I think it is about 2 yrs old,
without any problems, so if it really is a eMachine, I am still happy.
