I have a relative in Scottsdale Arizona who is elderly. His 9 year old Gateway has died the final death. He wants me to select a new tower and monitor for him. He ONLY wants to purchase it from Best Buy. My entreaties to look elsewhere have failed.
He will use the system to do basic surfing and e-mail. I'd like the monitor to be 23" or bigger as his eyesight is failing and was hoping a larger screen would allow for larger text, and generally easier reading.
His budget max's out at $750. That must cover the tower, monitor, and perhaps speakers. Keyboard and mouse is already covered.
I would REALLY appreciate it if the brain power here could help me make a god recommendation for him! I prefer Intel chips but would like all feedback!

Thank you all very much!
