Kevin, It looks like a great system. I just bought a Gateway dx4300-03 system and I'm very happy with it. Window-Eyes works well with the Windows 64 bit operating system, but finding new 64 bit drivers for older equipment can be a problem.

First, getting a Dell. Second, getting conned into the extra warranty. This is a cheap machine and will be disposable in two years or less but you are paying for a four year warranty. Integrated video and sound. Not a good idea in my opinion, cheap video and sound cards are available which will make your system more reliable and slightly faster. Add them yourself if you like. Only one hard drive? And, paying for a quad core processor which adds next to nothing over a core two duo except cost. Also, why buy a monitor from Dell? They are around cheap from buy.com etc. At 12:33 AM 8/1/2009, Blue wrote: >Hi, > >Could someone tell me is this a good system or not.
