To be honest, Bob's machine is underpowered also and it will be interesting to see if he is still happy with that part of the machine 6 months from now.
The original computer I started selling 3 years ago had a 350 watt PSU and that was just the bare minimum and if anyone plugged anything extra into one of its slots or a power drawing USB device, twilight-zone time. Just as an aside, the ASUS power supply calculator says Bob's system needs a minimum of a 350 watt system (and thats a minimum).
