are multimeters the same?

i saw this in the pawn shop for 20 dollars:

http://www.fluke.com/fluke/usen/digital-multimeters/fluke-117.htm?PID=55996

Would this be a good multimeter to get for a beginner electronics guy (pc components/motherboards/other small things)?

Is it too much for those types of things, or are all multimeters generally the same in what they do?
