Had my pc new too, a few months old.

HP A500N
AMD Athlon 2800+
512MB DDR Ram
S3G UniChrome (IGP) 64MB Video card
80 GB Hard Drive
MS Wireless Keyboard
MS Wireless & Optical Mouse
48x CD-RW
8x dvd-rom
 
I built mine...
Chaintech mobo (decent board and cheap)
Athlon 64 2800+
512 MB DDR ram
Radeon 9600 LE 256 MB
MS keyboard (with cool media buttons)/optical mouse combo
40 GB HD
120 GB HD
52x CD-RW
16x DVD-ROM
Flashy case with window
Wireless G card
36" monitor (only goes up to 800x600 but is still very impressive, I can post pics if you want)

I'm gonna upgrade alot though, like add 512 more ram, get a video capture card, get 5.1 surround (I'm using my Sony MDR-V300 headphones [if that means anything to anyone] right now), get a couple of SATA HD's and set them so they use RAID and all that, and when the price drops, get an x800

I hate flat panel monitors, htey cost way more then they are worth, break easy, and they look stupid in my opion, I loike flat screen monitors though, they have no glare.
 
I got that monitor from my aunt for free

like I said I can post pics if you want (I always love to show it off). Also, I got that video capture card I was talking about. It's a leadtech winfast 2000/xp deluxe (the one on newegg with all the reviews). So now I can play my PS2 and DC on my 36" monitor! yay! oh and btw, newegg is 1337, I recieved the card 2 days after I ordered it, with thier prices and $.99 shipping, you really can't go wrong! I will probably buy every computer component from newegg as long as it's the cheapest (which it usually is).
 
yawn my horrible specs from a new computer: 2.133 ghz amd ahtlon xp processor, 256mb ram,40gb, integrated vid and sound, mouse ball and multimedia keyboard
