Much better? Or in other words, how much cheaper should it be? Only online or
also in a typical shop? We have access to Vobis, Media-Markt, Expert and
PC-Spezialist. Not much more. I looked around a little bit, and I did not see
anything better (although I probably might not know).

I asked because the "belegt" above, which sounds confusing to me for a system
with onboard graphics.

>But the processor sucks ;-).

I did not follow all the CPU news in recent years. Is it really bad? Would it be
slower than my P4 2.53 GHz (which is really would be much more than fast enough
for me, if I wouldn't be interested in chess engines).
