Wants to turn it on, run his programs, browse the internet and not have to deal with much else. He does know how to run/maintain things like AVG, etc. Would also like to have XP instead of Vista as he is very comfortable with XP and doesn't want to learn something new yet.

I tried to find one on their site with the option of not getting Vista, but couldn't find a way to do that. Don't need a monitor, so that will bring the price down. What model was it?
