CD-RW  Drive
Regular CD Drive

I'm PLANNING on buying this computer; is it good for gaming?Jacko_the_Wacko......Well unless the price is really cheap , I would be considering something else. If you into gaming ...then this isnt the one you want .


dl65  This computer seems ok to me, but I would consider DSL or CABLE instead of Dial-up... You will REGRET having Dial-up... Also, it depends on what kind of gaming you are playing... However, for most games, this one seems fine to me...

[glb]Flame[/glb]Good for Solitaire & MINESWEEPER but it would not run games like Doom 3 or FarCry.
It does depend on the games.Well, the RAM, HDD, and Gfx all seem good....  Just that the CPU speed =\  1.2GHz is really weak for modern computers...  Heck, you can probably get a 2GHz desktop off of Dell for like, $500!  Lol...  But then again, modern computers are incompatible with SDRAM, in which case you'd have to buy 1GB of DDRRAM (UGH....  Approx. $100?)..
