Hey,
My friend's grandmother has a PC she uses to browse the internet and mostly plays flash games on some website. Her computer is on the fritz again. I think it's pretty much at the end of it's life and I'm trying to convince her to buy a new one. I am hoping if I can put something together for under $200 or even cheaper I can convince her to make the plunge. She has a monitor, keyboard, mouse, speakers, etc. I have an old copy of XP that I don't use anymore or I might put Ubuntu on it.
I was hoping you guys could help me picking out the hardware. I like Newegg and Tigerdirect and was hoping you guys could maybe take a look at a system I put together and let me know what I can improve, and where I can save money.
