An H61 board has limited slots but should work fine.
Personally its a tough call an H61 board with video and what I'd call decent layout runs closer to $85-95 then $65. A basic INTEL H67 board goes about $100- 110 if I have it right I would feel better for the options. Practice in work is go cheap and use long, generally works well enough.
Office or windows upgrades shouldn't matter, will you need more PCI or USB slots? On one board I see one legacy keyboard mouse connector, Four USB, and you lose two if keyboard/mouse are USB, ??? Speaker power, one left. Printer? Camera? Laptop? Two printers? Back up?
