I have a friend who wants a PC just to do light internet browsing, email, posting, and light mp3 downloading / playing. She has a monitor already, and plans on hooking it up to her boombox with inputs she already has. Right now she is using a Pentium-Celeron 500 MhZ and i told her its time to upgrade and can be done at less than 200$... i pieced together a system at newegg.com (the only site i could think of off the top of my head) and priced a
Sempron 2300+ system, with 512 PC2700 RAM, a 40 gig hdd, and a generic case for $202.96 shipped.
Mobo has LAN, Video and Audio on board
I was wondering if this seemed like a good deal, or if a better one could be had
Feedback will be appreciated
