$300.00 budget new build

Can someone direct me to a 64 bit new build to be used specifically for web surf and e-mail, no gaming and very little tasking - printing, word docs and maybe some excel but with possiblity for expansion and growth. Budget 300.00

Here is a 64-bit build for a bit over $300 including the OS (if the budget is really tight you can get the price down to under $300; however it reduces the possibility for expansion and growth and will have lower performance):

as an option to the above build you could use the Ubuntu operating system, it's free and it comes with open office org which can open and save microsoft office files. that would save you 90.00 and cover the shipping with a little left over.
