For those who do not want to click the link. 

AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 3800+  (2 GHz)
520W PSU
NVIDIA GeForce 6100 Motherboard
GeForce 7600GT 256 Mb
2 GB DDR 400 (PC 3200)
320 GB hard drive
DVD Burner with LightScribe
DVD/CD ROM

All for $1199 (USD)  plus additional if you want Windows XP, and another $70 to ship.

Personally, if you are a DIYer, you can build the system cheaper.

Prices from NewEgg

Same processor:  $185
Same Power Supply: $59.99
Same Motherboard: $52.99
Same Video Card: $149.99
2GB DDR RAM: $299
Hard Drive (same size/specs): $99.99
DVD Burner with LightScribe: $30.99
DVD/CD Rom: $17.99

Total: $948.93

That does not include shipping, but I am for sure you would get a discount, if not free shipping if you order it all at the same time.  Other sites, like TigerDirect, may even have cheaper prices.  This also does not include an OS, but you could use your current OS to install on this computer (you could do that with the other one also), if it is not OEM.  The price from NewEgg does not include a case, that can range based on the style that you want.  If you are a DIYer, I would say the one on EBAY is a little over priced, but it is that way because the person selling it has to create some money.  Also, if you build the PC, I am for sure you can use some stuff you have in your current PC, like the power supply if it meets the required specs.

The question now is do you think the extra money is worth not having to order, and build the PC yourself?
