I saw this deal on dell outlet.

The specs are Inspiron Desktop 531 Mini-tower: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual-Core 3800+ (2.0GHZ), Genuine Windows Vista Home Basic. 1 GB DDR2 ram, 160 GB SATA Hard Drive, 48X CD RW/DVD Certified Refurbished for $199.00 .
Is the technology outdated ?

Please take a look at the link
http://outlet.us.dell.com/ARBOnlineSales/topics/global.aspx/arb/online/en/InventorySearch?c=us&cs=22&l=en&s=dfh

in Stockrooms tab select > “Inspiron” then sort by ^Price.

In the future if i want to upgrade, can i upgrade with any product like from newegg.com or only can upgrade from dell products.?

And is this a good deal ?
Or should I buy the spec from newegg.com and build it myself and save money?

I am using it to mainly watch videos from youtube, google, CNN. I have cable internet.

Thanks in advance
