Also, considering getting something for my grandpa. He's 92 and not technologically savvy but his computer is about 15 years old and slower than dirt. Would basically just need to be able to check email and surf the web so cheap and easy to use is definitely what I'd be looking for.

Yeah, it'd be from scratch, so I'd need all of the above. I was thinking $500 ish since she doesn't play anything too high stress.

It's not a hard budget. I could definitely go higher if necessary.
