Additional Comments: My dad is technologically...challenged. He can get online and surf a few sites but not much more (he doesn't even have an email account). And that's alright with him. He occasionally watches a video but mostly just browses a few sites. No gaming. No word processing. His current computer is 8+ years old and doesn't work so hot. I'd like to build him something simple that would allow him to use the internet more efficiently. 2-4gb ram (depending on price) would be nice Integrated gpu is fine. Older dual core processors fine as well.. He downloads nothing and has no programs so and hard drive space not that important (which means an SSD would be perfect but probably too pricey). Case style and size is not important, nor are i/o options as he doesn't have any devices to connect. $300 is my upper limit but I can go a little over if need be. I like newegg and have used that site and this to build before but for myself. I don't know enough to get decent parts or which components will work with what so any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
