Maybe a "C".

It depends on what you are doing with it.

I use a similar computer at the office where I use Word, Excel, and surf the net.

I'd give it a D for gaming. It's a nice graphics card but in this day and age 64MBs of VRAM doesn't cut it.

Good enough for absolutely everything except extreme gaming. For work, surfing the net, etc. it is fine.

If you want to game, consider an XBox - a lot cheaper than upgrading to the latest and greatest every 6 months.

You can avoid many of these Windows problems with Linux. Linspire eases the transition for new users

Aye. An XBox is a poor man's PC.
