Well, it depends on what you're doing with it. As far as graphics goes, that's the low of the low. But if you're not going to be doing much with it - just MS, you don't need to spend too much. Run the game once to see how it runs, if it doesn't run fine, then let's talk about upgrading the PC.
When you say "dual user", do you mean having Windows 7 and XP installed at the same time? If so, that is very possible, but it will likely require you to reinstall Windows 7 as you have to monkey with the partitions. Make abso-lutely sure that it comes with a recovery disk. If the PC requires you to make your own recovery disk, create one. Make sure it's the first thing you do. Then save that CD and put it in a place where you won't forget it. I can't tell you how many of my clients got screwed over royally because they didn't have the recovery disk.
