FTMFW at least she's full grown now, a far cry from when she first arrived:

So it was good enough before, it is just getting slower? Sounds like you need to reinstall Windows XP. 4. Freshly reinstalled PC, save money. And this time make him use Firefox + Adblock Plus

Since he's probably gonna have it for a really long time you might as well go for a Nehalem CPU of some kind. That i3 Acer fits the bill nicely.

yes I am having brisket nachos no you may not have some

from the sounds of it something running a 64 bit OS with a good chunk of RAM and you should be set. I garuntee my quad core would be more than enough for his needs, but since the I cores are out you could get an i3 or i5. Sean just slapped together something pretty good for real real cheep recently I know. I think he used an i3. Does the size of the case matter? You could just use the old case and same some $ though. What do you think the budget is? Size of the case doesn't matter. For budget I'll say $600. I will also have to buy an OS. Should I go Win7 or stick with XP? What do I need to look for in a case? I saw this combo on new egg that looks pretty good. Newegg.com - Computer Parts, PC Components, Laptop Computers, LED LCD TV, Digital Cameras and more! Looks great. Definitely go with Windows 7; its what Vista should have been 64 bit natch.

and I'll help!
