I'm trying to save up to build a computer... I have been looking on newegg at parts and i have come to what I think would be a decent build... Shipping and all, with all combo deals and savings included it comes out to $372.81, so I think it's a pretty nice build.
Of course I didn't add in a monitor, speakers, keyboard, or mouse because I already have them, but I also didn't add a hard drive in because I figure I can use my IDE hard drive for now, but I am still considering going with a new SATA, but if I did it would be a small one, because I have plenty of external hard drive space (over 1.3tbs total). Also I decided not to add a graphics card because the mother board has an onboard ati radeon hd3200 with a vga, dvi, AND hdmi output built on.
So here are the specs to my build for 372.81:

I am a geeksquad agent and I think vista is a bit easier to work on... maybe it's just me, ha.
So, does it sound like a good build for a first time builder? Comments are appreciated.
