Any ideas? It's not going to be used for gaming, just internet browsing and office work. Need everything excludign HD/cd/floppy. If I don't use all the 300$, I can keep the leftovers (saving for a X800XL). Since he doesn't use the comp that much, I was thinking this:
Sempron 2600+ 754 75$
Biostar "K8VGAM" VIA K8M800 63$ (has onboard vid)
Cheapo 512ram 35$
This case: 55$(FREE SHIPPING!!)

=228$ give or take shipping
Any ideas, thoughts? Hes upgrading from a Pentium 266MHZ, so this is gonna be a big change. If you think I can go any cheaper, give some input!! Advice would be greatly appreciated
EDIT
On a morals subject, I have an old P4 1.4GHZ comp w/ a GF2 GTS laying around that I'm not using. If you were me, would you give him that, and keep the 300$??
