Hello
My dad's co-worker recently came up to me and asked me to build him a PC for his home that would be good for general use: Music, some video, simple games for his kids and something easy to use from his upgraded windows 98 system that just crapped out on him, yes i said windows 98. Well for a good general build I browsed Newegg and found a decent set up and want some feed back on it.
