So to try and make a long story short, my dad is getting divorced from his 2nd wife after about 20 years. He's moving into an apartment on the first. He told me that he will be getting a 37" 720p t.v., new comp, etc.. When I told him he could hook his comp up to the t.v. and browse the net sitting on his couch he nearly blew a load in his pants. Well his birthday is on the 12th and i figure I'd save him so dough (lord knows he'll be getting raped with the divorce) and buy/build him a computer. Alright, now for what we all came here for. Just remember this is only a net machine.

I have a retail copy of Vista Home Basic x86 I'll be throwing on there for him btw.
Also, I opted no video card because I know he'll get a tv with only vga most likely.
So anything to change, or good to go?
