I can be done cheaper, and probably better (depending on the motherboard and
case that comes with it), at least here in Denmark. The market is even more
aggressive in the US, as far as I know. Using just a couple of minutes, I was
able to find P4 2.4Ghz w. cooler, an OK Asus motherboards (but there are other
good, cheap motherboards), 128 MB OK RAM and an OK cheap case for appx. $370. If
it was a contest, I could make it even cheaper.
And the motherboard and RAM and case that comes with the system you mention
could be really really bad, I don't know. They don't mention brand or model on
the site.
