"Perfect, but video card could have been better"
Pros: Great speeds, up-to-date dual-core technology with a fast clock speed, 1GB or DDR2, Media Center capabilities, LightScribe, Dual Core. PCI Express x16
Cons: Poor video card compared to the rest of the hardware. Wont play latest games on more than medium settings, no AA for sure.
Summary: I personaly loved this computer. It served all my needs, it was fast etc. But when I opened Battlefield 2, I expected at least 1024x786x85Hz with high settings, anti aliasing off. The frames per minute were at about 2/3. If you want to play games on this, upgrade to a geforce 6 series or better. It is also easy and effective to do this because of the PCI Express x16 interface (Latest and fastest interface for video cards).
Besides the video card, this PC is great. The tv-tuner is amazing, allthough they could have used a slightly better one to have the ability to record something while watching something else, but that is upgradable as well. It also includes radio, and easy-to-use front ports with USB2.0, Firewire, audio and even composite-in connections.
