Not if you take other factors into consideration.
Anti Virus subscription will run you about $120 for 3 years (at least) [most people who buy $500 computers have no idea that there are free antivirus alternatives].
Plust droves of other software needed to make your PC useful in any meaningful way.
On top of that, a $500 PC carries a $200 Windows 7 license, so you are basically getting a $300 garbage PC. And no way to use that windows license on any other hardware in the future, since OEM licenses are not transferrable.
