I maybe wrong but look into this laptop here: Newegg.com - ASUS A53 Series A53U-XE3 Notebook AMD Dual-Core Processor E-350(1.6GHz) 15.6" 3GB Memory DDR3 1333 320GB HDD 5400rpm DVD Super Multi AMD Radeon HD 6310 Its a perfect fit for your budget, plus since your dad will be using it for multimedia purposes I think the cpu/video card combo will be enough to handle his needs. The only problem I see is the hdd size, but if he needed 500gb he could use it down the road.
