Default Need new computer

Hello! Well today I am not surfing the internet with no virus protection as my window ME no longer will work with AVG. It has slowing been doing other stuff as well. Have to shift delete after a few emails to get rid of them. This has led to me permantley deleteing things I had no intention of. It won't let me defrag anymore. it has 128MB RAM and the only time I run out of space is if I have a few (5ish) too many windows open at the same time. So time for a new one.

Here is what it would be mainly used for:
Visiting here...craft sites...saving crafts....kids games (DS is 11)...lots of emailing...yahoo groups. I am on light speed right now.

Is this one good? I am concerned about the windows vista..do I need to be?

Thanks!
Okay...it wouldn't let me copy and paste the info. Said I had too many images even though I only had the 1. Here is the link to it. Please let me know what you think.

STAPLES Business Depot | BUREAU EN GROS

Thanks again!

hey hey
your link don't work
when I click it ..it goes to Staples and a window pops up asking for a zipcode.

I bought a new laptop and it arrived last week..has window's vista ultimate 64 loaded..still learning about it..it can be done but it's hours and hours and hours of relearning to do which I didn't plan on and frankly don't really have the time for..so progress is slow..but at least it's not complicated!

powerfull system...they have it at Sam's club too
only downfall may be the games..the video card and the sound card are intergrated onto the mother board. they are standard and not very powerfull and with today's games you will most likely upgrade to a seperate graphics card and a seperate sound card..but you have enough slots to do it!

otherwise great dualcore! super hard drive and 2 DVD drives & lot's of memory too.

Great! Thanks a lot Bill! Could have gone with a bit lower price one but figured if I went a tad higher that it would last me longer for what I need it for. Will be interesting figuring out vista. Right now I am using windows me and that isn't compatible with much. Thanks again so much!
