So underpowered even now this PC's useful life is about 2 years then landfill we go.

I don't agree with that. This thing is good for library, enterprise terminal or public internet access. If done right, this thing can last quite long time. For less than $600 and comes with 18.4" screen, it's not a bad deal. Now just throw away the troublesome Windows and run Ubuntu on it, since we all know it can't run Crysis. Why even pay M$ a license after all?

For none home use yes but most sales still comes from the private sector.

XP & office,mails and internet works fine on this thing!
However,I'd go with the Asus EEEBOX, since it offers more for only $300.
Add a $180 19" TFT screen, and there you go!
More for less!

My current system is very similar. XP pro on 1600mhz athalon processor, asus board with similar bus speed and 2GB ram. Everything but Crysis runs great. I edit my church's videos and audio on it, all the obvious stuff like MSoffice, open office, google earth, audacity, corel 11 paint. In fact it boots faster and works better then my brother-in-laws dual core DELL with vista home premium in most cases, especially with networking. So this machine looks like a winner to me.

^ What are you talking about "image quality"?

BTW, I am replying to something I said 3 years ago. Nice.
