That's a lot of hype. Nothing on there shouts "Quality". This is one of those rare cases where I'm sure your LBS would have a better bike for less. I can't see that selling for even $300. Honestly, I'm not being snobby or anything, but those are cheap parts. The Judy is nothing special, and Zac rims/Tektro discs are pretty entry level stuff. I'm sure you could get a Giant Boulder for $100 less, and it's a much better bike. Do some more research, and ask more questions. Best to make an informed purchase. And yes, if you're new to MTBs, best to get one locally.
