Home Office Computer

Would like the approval on this computer. He wants to keep it at or below 350 (S/H included). This is what I have come up with. All he does is word process, email, internet, and uses WinTotal (form based program) for his realty business. How did I do?

Will that power supply be compatible with that motherboard and everything else?

For such a basic computer, you may be better off getting something like a DELL, but you would have to check out the specs and see.

(Just a thought)

Operating system? Monitor? If you are getting a new OS copy then you'll be better off with a Vostro Dell and it includes a monitor - flat panel offer ends today but they will have another offer to replace it... shipping is free IF you go above budget to 399.

'another 2 cents'

I built the computer. This tower is just replacing a defunkt one. He does have an OEM OS courtesy of me. I built it out to about 339 shipped with an added gig of ram to total 2. Nice I think.
