Here are the specs:
933MHz Pentium 3
2x 512mb sd-ram
DFI CA64 TC
ASUS DVD Drive
HP CD writer
250GB Seagate Barracuda
4gb WD 3400 (OS)
USB 2.0/Firewire/network card
Internal card reader
Radeon VE
Radeon AIW
All in a Xion 2 103 case

-----
I know I could have gotten a cheap athlon or P4 but really when it comes down too it, I wont ever need that much power. I atm currently run these programs on a P3 600Mhz 704MB Ram PC fine:
Inventor 5
Auto Cad
Macromedia Dream weaver
MS Visio
and a bunch more.
You can see im not in the leaste a gamer, I may squeeze in a couple minutes of Doom, UT GOTY edition, GTA3/vice city a day, but all these run fine on a older pc.
-----
Im so excited too finally stop using my parents PC.
Lots of thanks too washu and beryl.

Seems kinda silly to spend extra money on a pimped out wannabe case if you're dropping a last-gen CPU in it...but, okay...

It was a cheap good looking case. That had a lot of hard drive bays for future expansion. I got it for $39 on sale. Plus why would I populate my workspace with ugly looking stuff just becuase the hardware isnt up too date, seams pointless.

Seems cool to me. Got to get around to building one in the future. This is my current that I took out the box a week ago:

Of course the mem is maxed out at this time, but the graphics card is what came with it and I plan to upgrade later. It also came with a 70GB HD.
