Im after a cheap base unit for my mum!

Its to replace her ageing PII 350mhz system. I want to run windows XP, Broadband through a network card. And just have a system with enough power to look at pictures etc wuthout taking an age.

Im looking at getting this system - *edit link deleted - sorry*

Can anyone see any problems with this? I have the OS disks, so that no problem, but will it recognise the sound and network card? Can anyone find me a better base unit for simular money?

Cheers Guys.

Specs
* AMD PC Tower
* AMD Athlon 1800Mhz Processor
* 256Mb Ram
* 20Gb Hard Drive - Formatted - No OS
* Sound Card
* Network Card
* CD Drive
* Keyboard Mouse & Power Cable
* Superb Value

£35 inc Delivery,

Seems too cheap!!

I wouldnt pay any more for it tbh. You're going to need an OS license and some more RAM, 256 in XP is not going to be very snappy unless the PC is maintained extremely well.

Might want to post on the MM, i'd be willing to bet there are a lot of people who have similar machines they can let go that are probably better quality.
