Default fast enough?

well i've finally decided to take the plunge and take my old pc online (hooked on net since getting my wii!).

pc: p3 733mhz, 384mb ram, 32mb onboard graphics, windows xp.

i know it's ancient but will it be allright for browsing net? i'm planning to buy a new pc later this year when vista has become established and ironed out the inevitable early problems.

your help will be much appreciated.

More than enough for just browsing the net

Of course it'll take its time to do it :P

More more than enough.

I think you are wise to wait until Vista becomes more established, I was planning on getting a MAC for a change but I have heard good things about Vista. Also I am a big fan of Windows Media Centre, although I know Apple have bought Apple TV now.

Yeah get a Apple craig (and wiistar)!! You Wont regret it!They're absolutely wicked plus you have probably a 99.99% chance of not gettin any kind of virus while surfing the net. If you wait a month or two till the new OS comes out (OSX 1.5 leopard). The only reason i can think of against a Mac is there arent many games for it but you've got a wii right even if you did want to play PC games you coukd install boot camp which allows you to install XP and i think vista can install on it also but dont hold me to that.

So yes buy a MAC!!!!!
