What ya guys think.  Im looking for something cheap for my dad to use to web browse.  He currently has a potato and I think this would be a step up from a potato.

Do you think there is better for the price?

What ya guys think?

Does it have to be a small one ? i would not buy that one there are cheap ones with ssds too and even in office use a ssd for the os is recommend  

[mutazoid]

nope it doesnt need too.

Just trying to go cheap.

I know enough to up keep and such

....I mean...if you custom built you could get way better...but..if pre-built...its okay. I would definitely add a 120gb ssd for 20$

but...that same system..and systems like it(and better) are 100-120 USD shipped. in the US
