Spec me a system

[jrsday]

Hi Guys

Your advice would be much appreciated. Need to build a system for my Dad.

Priorities are:

Future proof as much as possible (i.e. not PC world off the shelf)
Not for games so graphics less important.

Needs good CPU and Memory etc so as to provide a resilient system for some years with a priority based on Sound - recording etc.

Budget approx £800 but can stretch.

Thanks
