My parents are in need of a pc now a days. They didnt want one before, because at work they use them all day. But now that we bought them a digital camera... and a good one... they want to get a pc. I dont want them to buy a dell because, well, its just a dell.

Is a sempron a good enough processor to do some internet/photo viewing/bank account/etc work?
Also, i want it small, so a mini itx or so would be great. Hell, i bet i could even do something smaller but that will do. I want it to have a card reader and all.

I have the hard drive, the monitor, the memory, and the loose stuff like rom drives etc.
 
I know you just said you don't want a Dell, but it is definitely the best option with parents (or at least in my experience) their warranty is top notch; the onsite warranty is a gift from the gods in my household.
 
If all they're going to be doing is internet/email/photo... well heck my family is doing that on an old P3, no need to get anything high end. Have you thought about a mac mini? It is most definatley small enough.
