Yes, he wants a good 17"-19" monitor
that will last him through several computer upgrades.

$499 computer + $60 3yr warrenty parts/labor onsite
$500-600 monitor (hitachi 19" model 753)

His work will download all the MS software he needs.

This $500 computer has
Celeron 300 mhz
32 SDRAM
ATI AGP SGRAM !! video card (only 2mb, but its SGRAM)
24 cd rom
3.2 gig hd
3.5 floppy
56 modem V.90
mouse/keyboard/speakers
2 USB ports
3 expansion slots
audio in/out
Win 98 etc

gosh, this computer is better than the 200 mhz computer
I bought last year for $1200.

I think it is a viable alterantive for someone who just
needs the basics, as you stated. It more than suites his needs.

Regards,
S.W.
