Nope, wait for the one of those specials they run from Gateway or Dell for $500. You get everthing including a monitor. Last time I seen them I think they were offering 2.8 ghz P4.

To me, it's worth the DVD writer and maybe the case

Depends:
If you're talking about 300CDN$ (you said Canada, right?) then that would be $231.22 in U.S. Dollars, so that changes things.
Might be worth that amount.Ethernet (n): something used to catch the etherbunny -
you can buy a dvd writer in canada for 50$ now .... so 200- $300 cnd if it has a OS sounds about right .. if you can get it ..
you can get special codes for dell deals for about the same (500 for whole system INCLUDING monitor)"Each problem that I solved became a rule which served afterwards to solve other problems." - Rene Descartes (1596-1650) -

Scottie, $230 - $250 (US) with tons of software is fair. Yes, you can get a complete system for $500 + Tax - a half dozen rebates but I would guess you're throwing in "technical support" since it's your Dad. I say it's fair and probably all he needs for surfing and watching DVD.

A hub sux....
In the nicest way possible, that would completely turn me off.
First of all I could build a brand new system for what you are wanting to sell it for.
I never recommend using an ethernet hub because you are not sending the same amount of bandwidth to each computer. Instead you are sharing the bandwidth and slowing down the network.
