Windows machine Q

[pixelbird at interisland.net]

Hello Rev List,

Although I'm basically a Mac person and will do most of my
Rev work on a G4, I'm looking for a Windows machine to write
some Rev stuff and test distr. standalones, etc. Someone in
my neighborhood has an AMD K6-2 500mhz, 64mb RAM, 10g HD,
Sound card, 8mb video, 52K modem,  CD-ROM (don't know the
speed), 15" monitor, and has Windows XP Pro and Office.

He's asking $300 U.S. for the system. I checked eBay and
Half.com for pricing and it seems to be in there. It needs
more RAM which I can get locally at 128mb for $38 + tax,
which will give it 192mb total.

..and I can save shipping costs (or a trip to a used PC
store on the mainland).

I don't know PC/Windows-based systems that well. I'm just
asking for opinions. Is it a good deal, and will it serve my
purposes with Rev?

(Much) TIA,
Ken N.
