    1. Enormous Hard Drives. An average workstation-type-thing only needs around 40GB. Get an 80GB drive.
    2. Why 4GB of RAM? Hell, why 2GB? 1GB is enough, and even that has space to spare on a regular XP machine. Running IE, Word, and Excel at the same time doesn't require much.
    3. With a processor that old, you could even get him an Athlon 64 X2 4400+ and he would be amazed.
    4. Try this tiny thing, just because.
    Not everyone lives in the US, so Newegg links are useless. I was also providing a list that met his budget.

      I was suggesting a list that goes under his budget. I also don't have a good grip on UK providers for computer components, so the link was for informative purposes anyway.

        You don't need 4gb for office work.
