you really should just buy seperate parts and build your own... you could get the same pc or even better for a cheaper price

Ideally that's what I would do but I don't have the cash up front and don't want to get killed with interest on my credit card. My current pc is dieing and has to be replaced asap, we had some water damage to my computer room and my pc has not been running right. Also I priced it out very vaguely and it seemed reasonable in my opinion for what I was getting.

Everything on the computer looks good accept for the video card. I know you mentioned that you aren't getting a crazy gaming machine, but even still the 7300 will completely underwhelm you. At least get a 7600 GT.
