hi guys
Going to build a computer for my kids to do homework/web surfing only ..
Not really after a high spec machine , but must be stable & have no problems on the net ...
Must be able to run windows 7 etc...
What would you guys build ?
 
What do you need, just the tower or everything?

What Homework are the kids doing, just typing ect or anything more demanding like programming or graphic design?
 
needs to be just for surfing & typing etc ..
Buget as cheap as possible say £200-£250 without monitor & HD & graphics card ..
Would like Graphics onboard & the case small just one dvd drive

Would the new amd line not be worth a look, value for money and half decent performance. That "homework" could do with a bit of oomph.
