If you look at the pics, the 6 in 1 card reader is at the front, along with 2 usb ports and a mic and headphone ports.

Looks preatty good.

Don't be fooled by the "AMD Sempron 2600+"... this is NOT as fast as it might seem at a first glance. It's only a 1.8Ghz processor, and like a Celeron it only has a small onboard cache memory, so it's not as fast as the equivalent Athlon XP or Pentium.

Still, for the price it's not a bad deal.

I've recently bought one, and I must warn you it is hard to upgrade some parts of it. Adding memory and PCI/AGP cards is easy, but trying to add optical drives is very difficult. It's almost impossible to add a 3.5" drive (e.g. floppy) into the spare bay. If you do need a floppy drive, I recommend adding an external one. Ebuyer sell USB floppy drives for £16 There's only space inside for one hard disk too. If you open the case, you invalidate your warranty. Not a bad machine, though. No wordprocessing software on it, but you can download OpenOffice for free.

Maybe someone can confirm this, but wasn't there some ruling recently that a company can't invalidate your PC warranty if you have opened the case, on the grounds that upgrading/adding components is something that people expect to be able to do with a PC?
