whats the operating system?
Whats the graphic card?
How upgradeable is it?

What cd/dvd burner is in it?

The rams ok but will it take higher ram?
how many ram slots does it have?

Does a monitor come with it?
what sound card will you be using(on board or another card)

Does it have a modem or a net work card?
How many usb slots does it have?

Sorry to be a wet blanket but:

All these questions need to be addressed as well as what did you want to accomplish with it?

the ram is sdram not ddr ram because of 133mhz. i think it has been overclocked a bit as 1.66ghz might be high for an athlon 2000+. see if can get a make & model# of the motherboard or computer so can see what the board is?

even with just those basic specs, $200 seems to be a good deal
