Just want to build my mom a cheap PC for Photoshop, photo storage & internet browsing since she always complains that my dad hogs their main PC and won't let her on it. Oh yeah it needs a CD/DVD burner as well. Don't need a monitor. The cheaper the better; looking for about $300 max if possible. I've built gaming PCs for myself before so I can put it together once I have all the parts, but I really have no idea how to do this one without overkill. Thanks for your ideas!
