Good Computer?

[wheelerts01]

I am looking for a new computer, mainly for gaming, and I was wondering if the one below would be any good. The price is Canadian, and I know I would need a better graphics card, but other than that, how is it?

It looks really good to me, but for $100 more, I think you should get this:

HP Pavilion Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 2.13GHz Media Center TV Computer (M7680N)

It looks tons better. Newer

Alright, thanks everyone. The only thing about that other computer is that it doesn't come in a package like the this: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/proddetail.asp?logon=&langid=EN&sku_id=BDL10001454&catid=

Also, could you tell me if either of these would be Vista Premium Ready (aside from the graphics card.)

It should definitely be Vista ready. I don't see any reason why it wouldn't. That PC is loaded and much more than what I have and that chipset you have rocks the house down, well for a Pentium D.

That's great, thanks.
