Everybody rags on them pretty bad, but Packard Bell has a lot of systems 
that would fit your requirements. About the only thing that I would be 
concerned and careful about is to check the amount of cache that comes 
with the system. Also, pay attention to the video card. Other than that, 
I would recommend a PB to about anybody.
