    It looks alright to me. But I've only had a quick glance, so some things there could be terrible. Hopefully not.

      You really got that computer for $60?  If that's really what you paid then yes you go yourself a good deal.

          Ok sorry that was a misinterpretation on my part.  But you are correct.  That is still worth the money you paid.   ;D
