They're so cheap now. Looki here:

Vostro 200 Mini Tower
Intel® Core™2 Duo Proc E4500 (2.20GHz, 2MB L2 Cache, 800FSB)
Genuine Windows® XP Home Edition
2GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM 667MHz - 2DIMMs
80GB1 Serial ATA Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache™
Dell 20 inch Widescreen E207WFP Analog Flat Panel Display

$499 dollars. Dang. Not sure what kind of Video card it has but that's a nice package for not much money.
 
If you ever have a chance I recommend looking at fatwallet.com in the Hot Deals section of their forum. Those guys can find the best deals on any computer.
 
For that money, and given that Vostro is a small-business line (which begs the question of, "Why XP Home?), it'll most likely have integrated graphics. Probably a pretty decent machine for your average business user (certainly beats the PC I'm on right now at work, and I have one of the nicer rigs in the company) or a home user who doesn't need a lot of horsepower...
