I'd have no worries about an AMD TL60 processor. sounds like you've grabbed a bargain.

Make sure its fully working before you part with your cash.

Let us know how you get on.

I'd run a UV lamp over it at that price.
Its about £530 on the Dell site.

Lots of info on the 1521 (AMD processor) here

If its a CPW one I guess its a special, I doubt it would have Vista Ultimate as standard though.

1520 is intel powered, 1521 is AMD powered.
