Speaking of OS'es, if you are absolutely sure you will NOT play any kind of games, don't buy Windows. This will save you money because there's really no reason to use Windows. Don't buy MAC either. Just get a computer, whether self-built or pre-built without an OS, and use Linux. While you may think you don't know how to use Linux or such, if you get one of those easy to use versions it's almost identical to that of a Windows. You don't need any knowledge of using a Linux. Everything will be pretty much self-explanatory. If you're not 100% sure about not playing then don't get one because installing games to work on Wine .. well, for a very basic user it would probably be too hard.

I've installed Linux to few of my relatives too as their computers are pre-built (slow as hell.. Windows lags) and even they found no problems at using them for their very basic needs.
