Not bad.. should be very nice..
how long are you planning on keeping it?
The Windows Media Center OS sucks.. I would rather get XP Pro.

The Acer 8204 (which just came out today) is a much better system.. but costs about $400 more. Its the new core duo system.... pretty sweet lappy it is. | |

Would play WoW great, only thing that might help that would be more ram, but 1gb is fine for it. | |

The 6800 video card should handle WoW at high settings with no problems. But doesnt Dell offer a 7800 in that ballpark? | |
