why go all out if she's just going to do word processing? you could probably build a real cheap system for under 500 (INCLUDING SHIPPING!!!). it seems like the setup you posted would work just fine. and you wouldn't even have to get a 7200 rpm harddrive, you could get 5400. believe me, if she has no clue how to fix it, she's not going to notice the miniscule amount of difference in access time.
