I think you have a pretty decent machine there. If your mate thinks your machine is crap, send him to htt://discussions.hardwarecentral.com and make him look at all the other systems in here and he'll feel like crap too.

You should add more RAM to your system.. and also I don't know what you use your machine for, but the 15GB seems too little. Upgrade to a 7200 drive. As for mine,
Yeah, I think your computer is pretty darn good. Well, if it aint then mine is really behind the times!
My main machine:
Classic Athlon 500 @ 700MHz
Microstar MS-6167 Slot A
128MB Generic PC100 RAM @ CAS2
Hercules 3D Prophet II MX @ 175/195
30GB 7200RPM IBM GXP75
Videologic Sonic Vortex 2 (Aureal Vortex 2)
Pioneer slot-loading DVD player
Accton EN1207D 10/100 network card
Belinea 106030 19" monitor
An old ISA 56K modem
My network gaming rig:

Gigabtye GA-5AX SS7
64MB Generic PC133 RAM @ 100MHz/CAS2

Old 16x CD-ROM drive

OK, so you might not think my machines are much to look at, but they are enough for me for the moment.

Speed is everything - Warp factor 9, Mr. Sulu!
I wish I had your sys here at work, I'm on a Comcrap Pissario 2200 from 1997, with a no zif socketed Cyrix 180 mhz chip, all in one board, 336 modem, 1GB HDD, and no cooling fans at all, 13" vga monitor. They refuse to upgrade me, not suppose to be on line either, hehe! Primary use for this PC is Control System Supervisor, HVAC EMS front end.
You should post HIS system so we can critique it, I think yours is pretty impressive especially the OC on the duron (you didn't mention cooling though). I would recommend an upgrade to the video card the GeForce2 scene is definately a buyers market right now.
Actually your computer is pretty good.... and tell your friend to take a good look at these machines HWC members have

The question is, why am I having so much trouble dying?
