How would this one work for home use (surfing, storing pictures and music, no gaming)? Seems like a good price. It has Windows 7 which is a definite plus for me. I've tried 8 and hated it.
With your needs, why not get a laptop? You can have portability to take the pictures and music with you or hook it up to your TV if equipped.

I second. Instead of a desktop, you can buy 15"-17" laptop for very good price. They are just as capable as desktops, take up less space, and are considerably lighter (even at 5-7 lbs). You can still connect an external monitor and forget you have a laptop.
Several laptop models without touch screen and running Windows 7 are still available, but you have to act fast.
Btw: to save space I will very probably be purchasing one of those "slimline" desktops. Plus I only require at most a couple of expansion slots anyway.

You can use old computer for those tasks. Purchase new HCL Desktop computer with Windows7.
