Pay no sttention to the post above mine advocating "aquiring" an OS through illegal means. The last thing you want is to get your whole family in legal trouble. Each illegal copy of software is a $5000- 10,000 fine.
The 120gb drive w/ XP included is actually quite a good deal. Grab that one while it's hot (As long as your source isn't shady)
I like your motherboard/CPU choice, but we've established that I'm biased
512mb is quite fine for everything you do in terms of memory. Having a full 1gb would actually not translate into improvements for the games you listed playing, and XP works fine with that much. You don't need more than what you've listed, it's just overkill that won't do anything.
Get a modem if you need one. There like $10.00 nowdays. If you don't need it, don't even buy one.
I'm digging your video card choice. That's a good deal for a 9700.
I can't think of anything we are missing.
Can anyone else spot any missing items?
