That's what I'm saying man. You can buy an Ubuntu machine from Dell. They already sell them.

You shouldn't have trouble finding someone to build you a box to your Specs and setup and configure Ubuntu for you. It's not difficult and would probably put a few more dollars in their pocket compared to having to buy Windows and install and set that up.

I set an old box up with Ubuntu for my grandma. She doesn't know Windows, so she doesn't "know the difference". She can email, check the internet and weather and we have her logged into IM via GoogleTalk and she's able to get hold of most everyone in her family pretty quickly and easily...at 82 years old.
