Pretty good.
The games I'm planning in playing are World of Warcraft, RTW + BI, maybe Everquest 2, possibly Battlefield 2 if it will run ok, Battlefield Vietnam, and Age of Empires 3.
I will eventually invest in a good video card, probably a Geforce 6800 GS, and another gigabyte of RAM, and a better moniter, but for right now it should be great.
This isn't in set in stone though, my mom said she would try to spare money from her income tax return to pay for it, so I'm just hoping that she has enough.
Thank you Wartrain.
