Sorry, but you'll new a new system. The CPU is too slow for modern games for a start. When Vista comes out you'll need two PCs to run it

You can't. You could try Trademe or similar but even there you still won't get a decent upgrade for that amount of money.
Either keep saving or put something on time payment.

... Intel Celeron 1.2GHZ, 20GB Hard Disk Drive, Windows XP Home SP2, 120MB Ram, Integrated Graphics, AOC 15" CRT.

With these specs you are going to need a new computer... right now it probably runs very slow.

AS far as getting Vista, make sure when it comes out, you are either a student with a very large bank account, or find a cheap piece of hardware with an OEM Vista disc
