Excellent price for that equipment. If you just bought XP (OEM) it would be $89US.

CD or DVD player or burner?

I hope you can bump up the ram to about 2 gigs.

Nice, nice nice!

Excellent system Exclamation .
I think that if its a CD/DVD player and it can burns CDs it will burn DVDs too.

I agree with RadarMan about the RAM. Wink

Enjoy your new system. Wink
