It will also have my old Athlon 64 +3000 and my 1 Gig of GEIL Value Ram. It´s only for office, internet, some music and no much more. No games at all. Its for my fiancee´s mum.

Have I forgot anything?

Do you think it will be better to get a Dell computer for her?

Cheers
 
well, the thing is I could upgrade my computer a little bit and sell her my components at a fair price (for me!) :) .

But as Kondorski says I don´t know if its worth the hassle ...
 
In the website there is this barebone, but apparently it can´t use Sempron 64 although OCUk sells some of these with Sempron CPUs, anyone knows if they are really sempron 64 compatible?
