Cheap price and everything works. I like that it has 2 x PATA slots.

I would have thought the sound would have been a little better than(or at least as good as) my computer i got 5-6 years ago.

Only thing i wish it had different was 2 more RAM slots, and an IEEE1394 connector so i could hook up the firewire port that came with my case.

I personally regret not spending a few more bux on something a little better. But it was my first build and i was kinda being cheap. Just make sure you think about any future upgrades you may want to do before you buy. Right now my best upgrade would be a better mobo. But that doesn't make it a bad mobo, just weigh your options.

okay mobo

inexpensive, works fine

had trouble with LAN drivers, got them to work eventually. Very limited overclocking, couldn't get my E4300 to clock over 1.9Ghz without extreme instability. WindowsXP setup had issue with pci.sys, was never resolved.

I'm not using the SATA ports or onboard sound, front USB connectors are covered by my 8800GTS.
